Before I went camping, I had already tracked you all down, though it does help that since then you've made more accounts that have made the connection all the more apparent. I'm back now, and ready to moderate.
There are a preposterous number of accounts linked to your school, and many are most certainly multi-accounts, most of them quite evident. This is why many accounts have already been banned. However, it is also quite evident that there are many of you, not just one extremely prolific and bored multi accounter. Somewhere in this mess there may be a couple of players who legitimately want to play here and a part of the community, and it is because I don't want to penalize them that I have not simply banned you all.
I would normally send a mass e-mail to all the e-mails listed in the accounts involved, but in this case, it is a logistical nightmare. I can tell that I would get upwards of 20 e-mails bounced back to me with a delivery failed notification, so I've decided to do it like this.
You have one chance now, to e-mail me at
[email protected] and seek amnesty. E-mail me with your name and the one account you would like to keep. All other accounts will be banned, including those of people who choose to ignore this offer. Please use the e-mail listed in the profile of the account you'd like to keep.
I've taken the time to sort and sift through a lot of data and I've grouped and linked your accounts. If you try to slip one past me by pretending to be multiple people, I will figure it out by corroborating the data that I have in front of me, and the information I can find easily (as anyone here will tell you) about you online. I will then revoke your amnesty and ban all your accounts and watch your IP closely.
I trust you'll make the right choice. We've had repeat offenders before, and I have a particularly nasty tactic to bring home the idea that the internet is not your anonymous playground. I'll say that those repeat offenders have not come back, and I hope you'll take your chance while you have it.
Cheers,
