Noble Britannian, was deleted last night under the charges of multying. New_RomanRussia was also deleted. I am begging you to restore them. I do not control New_RomanRussia. New_romanrussia is the nation of a classmate from school. We must have logged in on the same computer at school or something. Please. I have had that account for nearly two years. I am begging you to restore it. I will never log in with my UN puppet at school again. This is all a mistake. I swear to you that I wasn't multying. If there is anything I can do to prove to you that we are indeed two different people, please don't hesitate to ask.

The United Nations is getting much tougher on people who break the "one player, one UN member nation" rule. If you have been ejected from the UN, warned, or deleted, this explains why.

Q: I didn't know it was against the rules to have multiple UN member nations.
A: It is mentioned in the FAQ (see: "United Nations"). Also, when you receive your invitation e-mail from the UN, it clearly spells out the penalties for breaching this rule. Not paying attention to this is not an excuse.

Q: I wasn't cheating! I only have one UN member nation. Your game got it wrong.
A: This is possible, but unlikely. The game uses four different methods to detect if the same person is operating multiple UN members. These methods include IP address tracking and login pattern detection. If your nation was deleted, the game gathered very strong evidence that it was being operated from the same location as other UN members on multiple occasions.

Q: My friends operate those other UN member nations. We all share the same computer.
A: I'm sorry if that's the case. There is no way for the game to tell how many people are on the other end of a computer. For this reason, breaches of UN rules involving only two members are usually punished with expulsion, not deletion.

However, please note this important point: we cannot take your word on how many people are really behind your computer. This is not because you are untrustworthy, it's simply that otherwise there is no way to enforce the UN rules.

Q: But that's not fair!
A: True, and again, I'm sorry if you and your friends have been punished unjustly. However, this is the closest we can come to fair. If we accepted people's explanations that they were using a public computer with their friends, we would have to let people create as many UN nations as they like. This would destroy the whole point of the UN.

The line has to be drawn somewhere, and thus, fair or not, the rule must stand.



That should answer your question.

Please. I am begging you to restore them. I am a very religious person, and I swear to God that we are not the same person. Please. Look again. If you look farther back you will see that there have been telegrams between them. They have logged in from different places and they have been on at the same time but several miles away from each other. Please. It's Christmas eve. What if I resign from the UN? I'm telling you, I did not cheat. You have deleted the accounts of two innocent nations on Christmas eve. Have you no heart?

Several times. No response. What happened to: "For this reason, breaches of UN rules involving only two members are usually punished with expulsion, not deletion"?

Because you've a history, a long history, of crossing the line when it suits you and the IP wasn't school-related.

At least have some bloody dignity about the entire thing.
