For what reason am I called imported_Sozy? My nation's name is Sozy.
A different question, how long may it take when you send an issue and it is accepted you get to hear about it?

Yeah, I don't really know what causes the imported stuff, but I don't think it can be changed.

Check out the issues FAQ to see where Siro is working on issues submitted. You'll be notified if your issue is accepted, but not if it is rejected.

It's my understanding that the imported_ thing happens because there's already someone on the Jolt forums with your name, so "imported_" got tacked on in the move, to differentiate between the two users on the forum.

Of course, I could be wrong.

Do you also control the forum account Sozy? If you do, post here with it telling me so and I'll see about fixing it.

Hack (or Melkor, I forget) did once tell me this is not the case.

I'll look into this, but please be patient.

Sozy exists, but has never posted or used his account as far as I can tell.

Melkor said this.

And he's wrong.

Well, that does not explain how there's imported_ [violet]s and Treznors and Tactical Graces.

Of course it does.

[violet]: Our [violet]
imported_[violet]: Does not exist
Treznor: Joined January, 26th 2001. Post count: 5
imported_Treznor: Our Treznor, joined: May 30th, 2003, hence "imported"
Tactical Grace: Our Tactical Grace
imported_Tactical Grace: Does not exist.

The older versions of Tactical Grace and [violet] were removed, thus eliminating the need for the "imported" tag. Treznor, not being part of the Moderator staff, is, currently and unfortunately, stuck for now. Granted, the "original" Treznor has made only 5 posts in three-and-a-half years, but until Jolt is willing to eliminate the account, "our" Treznor is stuck.
