Hola,

I'm not entirely sure where this should go, so if I've posted in the wrong place, I'd be thankful if someone could move it :)

I thought I should drop by and point out that a couple of people from my school, including me, (we hang out in "Tha Moon") play NationStates, and that we're sometimes going to appear to be accessing from the same IP address (63.199.37.10) during school hours. More than one of us is a UN member, so I'm concerned that someone might notice the IP address and think that I'm multiing or something. Is there something I need to do to make sure that doesn't happen?

Thanks,

Yes. Do not use the school computers to log into un nations. That is the only way to ensure that they are not detected as multies.

If some of my UN-enrolled region-members ignore this, and get marked as multies, will the accounts of non-UN members from the same IP address be affected?

You are allowed to have puppet nations so no, only the UN multies will be affected.

Hell I could invite all over non UN NS here and ask them to log into their nation using my computer, sure it'll take a hell of a long time but nothing's going to happen.(well it might raise a few eye-brows with the mods)

That would be a problem, seeing as there are many people on NS with UN nationsI just reread that and I sound like a complete moron there. No shit there are many NSers with UN nations..., wouldn't it? I mean, if all the non-UN NSers logged in on one computer, nothing would happen, but if everybody did there would be a bit of a quagmire, I'd think.

Then again, it would be pretty obvious that all of the UN isn't composed of multies, wouldn't it....

or.... maybe every UN nation really is run by one person, and has such crazy awesome tactics that the mods haven't picked up on it yet!

That would be easy. The mods simply sompletely ban that particular server, and you suddenly see thousands of UN nations cease to exist in a month or two. Who needs the UN anyway, right? :p

Not to be too overt here... but doesn't this thread seem to be hijacked a bit?

Karmabaijan has already suggested not logging into UN nations at school... wasn't that what was asked by the thread starter?

Anyway... from when I read the rules right, the only way you can get all of you in the UN from school PC only would be with the special mode that exists for educators...

However, that creates your own little world, and you wont be able to interact outside your region...

if you dont want that stipulation, I reccomend using a UN nation at home, and a non-UN nation at school

I have a question sort of regarding this:

Now, please don't delete me for this, because I wouldn't dream of UN multiing, but I have a question:

I just made a new nation for the purpose of roleplaying. My other nation is already in the UN. Unfortunately, to access the forums, I need to provide an e-mail for my new nation. If I were to enter a new e-mail, but NOT join the UN with my new nation, would I still be considered as breaking the rules?

No, as long as you only have one nation in the UN. The un and forum emails are not associated with eachother.
