Picked "Moderators"

Hal & Sqrt: Unless you are here to discuss the holy scripts, get a room.

The only advice we can give is that you get a sitter or that you're extremely careful logging in from wherever you are. Public/hotel/college IPs always carry with them a certain risk.

I nominate admin

Let me add something: I think most players by now (at least I hope this is the case) are aware of the fact that "XP Farming"/mock war is a violation and that it will be punished. In a normal case the punishment for that violation is the removal of any experience gained in the illegitimate war. When multiple violations occur by the same nation (for example a nation having 3-4 illegitimate wars, or more) it logically follows that the punishment will be more severe.

The option to disable experience is (currently at least) only an option for the attacker. It can only be done at the beginning of a war (in the declaration) and it turns it off experience for both sides of the war Disable experience and you're allowed to have as many war games/competitions as you want. Since the question asked has been answered, I'll direct further comments/suggestions to this thread.

You have previously (before this was posted) received replies from both Allan and myself via PM addressing this issue.

The best way to avoid getting deleted/banned is to not be on the same network. Since I don't know the policies of their college or how their network is set up it's hard to give any more detailed answer to this question.

There will be an announcement clearly stating the rules surrounding war games/slot filling/experience farming in the not too distant future.

This thread has been reopened. If you guys want to discuss whether Northern Lights exist in CN or not you can go ahead and knock yourself out.

Think we're done here (for now at least). Closed.

And for months, maybe years, the Moderation staff has been reminding players where and how it is appropriate to raise concerns about the game/admin/moderators/whatever. This is not that place. Here's admin's post again: Thread closed.

I've never heard of it before. Poke me/us if it happens again.

Did it happen more than once?

I know you guys all love SF, but make a new thread if you want to make him the center of attention.

It's completely fine to discuss (even hate) ideologies such as communism. But if you discuss these subjects in an IC forum the rules stipulate that you shouldn't use real world references (like the "Berlin Wall" or "Truman Doctrine"). Since this alliance (even though it's tiny) is based on opposition to communism as referenced in the OP, discussing such topics seems to be fair game. Carry on.

Yes he has.

A tad late. Closing this thread.

[quote name='Lamuella' timestamp='1324240655' post='2881340'] these complaints about how CN isn't as good as it used to be aren't as good as they used to be. [/quote] I agree with this. Furthermore: [quote name='admin' timestamp='1295307861' post='2579043'] I'm a fan of the Dallas Cowboys football team. During the regular season the team was having trouble getting wins. They interviewed one of the players and he said, "We go into these team meetings to discuss what's going on with the team. You go in there with an idea of what the problem is, and then everyone starts giving their input, and you leave the meeting with a sense that the problem is much more worse than it really is." That's what these threads have become. Everyone is giving their input on the situation, placing blame all over the place and making the problem seem much worse than it really is all the while resolving nothing. This game is 5 years old. I didn't expect it to last 5 months. We still have 20,000 playing the game. Enjoy. [/quote] Closed.

I don't know where this thread derailed, but I think it's quite enough of the off-topic posts.

I believe this has been answered. IF you have further questions I'm sure a quick Google-Search will answer it for you.

Dear Locke is correct. Some colleges assign unique IPs, others do not. There will always be a risk that you will be flagged, and deleted, while playing Cyber Nations from a college campus. You can take steps yourself to minimize the risk but it is something you will have to decide on your own.
