This article is respecting everything game rule and it was written in order to make anyone realize that this is a game.
I hope that this is the last time that I will publish such an article, but I will use my newspaper for anything unfair is happening here.
We are all here to play a game. eRepublik IS A GAME and MUST remain a game.
Some people think that we are here to make propaganda.
This is completely wrong. We are not politicians. We are gamers and we are here to enjoy and to have fun in our free time. There is no need to nobody to make here any type of propaganda, or to use his power by taking unfair decisions.
At Day 1339 I had a warning that my avatar (Vergina's Sun) was illegal.
Vergina's Sun is an official Greek state emblem recognized from United Nations (UN).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vergina_Sun
I prove in my previous article (which was written at day 1339) with a very simple way, that my avatar (Vergina's Sun) is 100% legal and I proved that anyone Greek has the right to use it without any problems. You can see the article for details: http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/1825982/1/20.
George Lemnaru answered immediately at my previous article (and I want to thank him for that) in order to inform me and all community that all Greeks have the right to wear this avatar without any problem....
George Lemnaru answer:
Your fp was deleted and today we changed the rules: it is not normal to get fp points for showing that sign, no matter the nationality and especially Greeks.
Thank you for understanding.
But....at day 1340...someone has banned a Greek user for 1 day (pest88) because he was wearing avatar with Vergina's Sun.
The avatar that pest88 was wearing:

The ticket of his temp ban:

Someone, didn't respect the game rules, and with the power that he takes from the admin's tools he punished a Greek User without any reason...
Someone, isn't respecting anyone user here because he is doing whatever he want and he destroys the game
Someone wants to make this game a awful propaganda tool.
This is completely wrong....eRepublik IS A GAME and MUST remain a game.
I am speaking as an user that has ingame friends from all the countries here ("friendly" or not), as a user that respects every user here, as a user that want eRepublik to remain a game.
Thanks

I'm so fed up with all this crap you bring in this game. Both greeks and macedonians. If one day I want to wear a German flag as my avatar, it's no one's damn business. Yeah, that includes the moderators and the real Germans.

They should choose mod team better i guess, or choose non-player-professional mods
"Vergina's Sun is an official Greek state emblem recognized from United Nations (UN)."
This is external propaganda.
Vote!
"There is no need to nobody to make here any type of propaganda"
Do you mean we should not make RL-related propaganda or any at all. One of the things I found most interesting about eRep was how the media was used to promote militaries and political parties at the expense of other competitors. Since this is a game using RL nations with national flags, it's hard to keep out all propaganda that has RL connections.
I think you are actually advocating for the right to use an image that promotes a certain set of values/group of people rather than stopping propaganda. It's the freedom to express onself that is being restricted for questionable reasons.
Please keep propaganda alive in eRep ~ it's what makes the game half-interesting.

As long as the game uses real countries names, all the players will refer to real life issues.

The mod or admin who is responsible for all of this censorship should be already banned..

All admins have various biases.
It's understandable... it's human nature.
For example, all of you can feel free to make racist and bigoted statements against the Irish. A specific racist reference has earned people permabans in the past (I will not repeat it). The EXACT SAME insult was made against the Irish, and I was told "There is nothing illegal" with the racism.
The double standard makes it clear that racism is only against the rules, if you insult a country the admin likes. You are allowed to hate on the countries that the admins dislike.

*******Vergina's Sun is an official Greek state emblem recognized from United Nations*******
PROUD TO BE G R E E K !!!!!!
I agree, eR is a game. But in your articles I only read things about RL stuff.
There is no need for the "explanation" for the "legality" of the symbol. As long as it's not an illegal symbol (like the Nazi swastika), then every player in the game has the right to use it, no matter what country he hails from in-game or in RL.
It is tiresome this RL propaganda that is going on in here and I agree that the moderators are grossly biased, however the right way to fight that is by attacking their unlawful behavior and leave out ulterior subjects.
πώς είναι δυνατών να γίνονται τώρα όλα αυτά δεν το κατάλαβα τη θέλουν να περάσουν οι αντμινσ εδώ και 5 μήνες που παίζω όλα τα αβαταρ που έχω χρησιμοποίηση έχουν τον ήλιο της Βεργίνας και δεν έχω φαι καμιά ποινή

μπραβο σου Tall_niki ψήφος
so what about my avatar...temp ban aswell vote+sub
You bring RL Propaganda here Tall_Niki !!!
The Vergina Sun as you Called was found neer Vergina(greek)Kutles(macedonian)
Kutles is the North Part of Greece witch in this game it has the name Macedonia, but as any that was in school knows that that part was MACEDONIAN until the split of Macedonia to Serbia, Bulgaria and Greece so that what you found was Macedonian and you do not have the right to name it yours.
