The nation "Celaya" is making multiple adverts spaced close together. They are witten very differently, but they are also on different threads. Could you gus lock one of them and ask them to move the other advert to the same thread?
I ask this for two reasons:
1. With the number of stickies an announcements, it seems unfair to allow duplicate adverts one on the first page, one on the second and still bumpable.
2. I know very well that when I see a redundant thread but with drastically different wording by the same author, it sticks in my mind as the same claim form two seperate sources unless I check the author. This will of course reinforce in the minds of some nations looking for regions the illusion that a particular region is rather popular, and as they say in Syrup "perception is reality."
As a nation who ihas been struggling for monthas at building a region of my own, I find it very offensive when a nation uses unethical, illegal, inconsiderate, or manipulative techniques to recruit for their region.
