They say I had more than one member nation.
How is that possible?
This was the only nation created with my email address that I applied to the UN with.
Does this have something to do with multiple users sharing the same PC at home?

[Emphasis mine.]
Correct. You and "Whiperdom" were detected logging in from the same computer. As we cannot see who is using a particular computer, the assumption is that one computer means one person.
If you really are two different people, then we're sorry, but we cannot verify this for ourselves. The UN bans stand.
If you want to rejoin the United Nations, then you will have to create a single new nation for that purpose. Do not share computers with other UN-member nations.

What happens to people who use PCs in college labs or public libraries?

If an educational PC is detected, then we'll take it into consideration, but we will not make any guarantees. Again, avoid computer sharing whenever possible.

They can usually tell this, because 90% of colleges/universities have the .edu on the end of their IP address, except for some private ones, which usually go by .org.

It's most common to use the normal TLD. (uni-koeln.de for example)
