As I'm sure you all know by now, there is this one nation who has been constantly spamming our region. Since his first was deleted, he continues to harass us. Unfortunately, the mods tell me that he uses AOL, and thus banning him would cause others to be banned (this is what happened when EM reported he couldn't use the Cbox - the person who impersonated me had a similar IP address as EM).
The mods, with a password of my choosing, have put in place a password. Hopefully, this will only be temporary. The password shall not be told to anyone, unless if requested for a valid reason by anyone considered to be a citizen of Hyrule.
Notice to all recruiters: Recruiting might have to be suspended for a few days until the situation gets solved, I'm afraid. I'll bring you more on the story as needed.

The only reason I don't ask people to recruit is that any nation could be this guy's puppet, and I would much rather be on the safer side, then having the possibility of him playing dunce, learning the password, and then spamming again. Now, I am going to ask you all to try and be as active on the forums as possible. We might not get new nations for days, and we'll still need the region to live on after all of this is over of course.

Just felt like asking this to everyone: A friend of mine, who's nation is Stomping Trees, wants to come to this region, but due to the password she can't at the moment. Should I let her come to the region now, or wait until the password is lifted?

As long as you are certain that this is a friend then...
As always...Why the hell not?

Yes. This isn't just some nonsense spammer and I can confirm that.

I don't see why not.
Still, It's a pity it had to come to this. I wasn't watching the Civil HQ during whatever happened, but it's distressing.

Well, it had to be done unfortunately.

A nation called "Jaminbee" who used to be in Hyrule decided to come back, and has no connection to the recent spammer, so I have given him the password and will change it after he enters.

And, I have told the password to a nation called "The Author" who was in our region before, and "The Lamanite," a nation with over 1 billion people who is interested in joining our region.

Madame Delegate, I am indeed sorry to hear of the incident, and do hope that you have not taken any of the comments posted by said ********** to heart.

No, I haven't. Other people have gotten telegrams from this guy and most just ignore him, too.
