Hello, i am new to this game and my original nation " nutin important" had been deleated. I realized that it was because i had two nations with the same email address in the UN but i had never noticed that there were rules on UN membership. What i am asking you is if nation states can "un-deleat" my original nation because i did not uderstand the whole game. I will not obstruct any other rules because i will pay more attention to the rules of the game. I hope that you consider this request. Thank you

Did you report it through the Getting Help Page (http://www.nationstates.net/-1/page=help)? That's probably a good start.

Copy-pasted from the FAQ:

I have more than one nation. Can they all join the UN?
No. You may only have one nation in the UN at any given time. To enforce this, UN member nations must supply an e-mail address.

What if I sneak them in using other e-mail addresses?
First up, don't. This is against the rules, and other people will be annoyed with you when they find out. It's a low, underhand thing to do. And the chances of getting caught are pretty high: the game uses four different methods to detect cheaters.

Nations that rort the UN in this way will be expelled and prevented from re-joining. If you do it with multiple nations, they'll all be deleted, including your main nation. If you're especially annoying, you'll be banned from making any new nations, too. But don't make me do that.


I'm afraid you may come up against an 'ignorance of the law is no excuse' argument in this case. It's against the rules of the game to have more than one nation in the UN, and that's that.

However, being that the mods are nice people, you may well get your nation back, which would be a good thing. However, I recommend that in either case you read all the rules, FAQs, and so on fully before doing anything else. It may sound like a long, drawn out procedure, but believe me, it'll pay off when something comes up and you know what you can and can't do.

Where would the "get help page" be?? and i realize that i had not read the rules but i am new at this game and had no complete idea at how the whole UN thing actually worked? I hope that NS mods will consider my humble request to have my nation restored... thank you

Simonist already provided a link to the Getting Help Page. Click on the underlined words in her post.

Also, this is the Frequently Asked Questions (http://www.nationstates.net/21636/page=faq)page where you get an intro to basic rules and how things (are meant to) work. (Again, the underlined is a clickable link)

And once you did that and feel you really want to start playing NS and get more involved, it is highly advisable to read the thread that was dubbed the One-Stop Rules Shop (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=416023)in order to get the whole fix of to-do's and no-no's.
