Two accounts

Hey NationStates, I've just noticed that I made a pretty bad mistake.
I was at my girlfriend's house on my laptop and she noticed me browsing NationStates. "What's that?", she asked. "Oh, just some game." I replied. Soon enough after, she wanted to play it too. No problem, I thought, and I logged out and made her an account and showed her the basics of issues, regions, and the world assembly.

A few hours later, I noticed my mistake - I'd logged into two WA accounts on the same computer in the same network. Is this an instant ban, or is there someone I can contact to explain?

The system used to detect WA multies is a bit more layered then some people assume, still using the same computer makes it very likely it will be seen as multing. You can file a GHR to explain if you like, and just make sure you never use the same computer for your WA nations again.

Yeah, I've explained it to her and she's fine with using her laptop/phone in future, it was just because my laptop was out and the game was loaded up that it was just a lot easier and I didn't think. I'll file a request now, thanks.
