PM's Desk- Why I was Banned

Day 555, 19:07 • Published in Australia

• by patti11

Afternoon eAustralians,

As many of you know I was temporarily banned yesterday for 24 hours. I thought I would explain the reason below.

Many of you read my article yesterday, 'Scotywest Banned- Sad day for eRepublik'. This article has since been deleted by the admin team for breaking the the following laws:

7. The channel for contacting the eRepublik Team is the official contact form.
7.1 Any accusations or complaints brought to the eRepublik Team via a channel other than the official one is prohibited and will not be addressed.
7.2 Public debates are encouraged in the New World, however public debates and/or complaints regarding the eRepublik team's actions toward one citizen or a group of citizens will not be allowed. Only the eRepublik team has the necessary tools to determine if a citizen or group has made a violation, and public discussion only created to undermine the team's decision will not be permitted.

I accept my ban from the admins wholeheartedly. What I did was wrong and I hope you guys use me as an example to respect eRepublik laws and they admin's decision, because, we obviously don't have the tools to investigate which they have.

In regards to scotywest's banning the admins are firm that scoty has broken an eRepublik rule which is worthy of a perma ban. I have spoken to scoty who still preaches his innocence so as such he has always been a close friend and he will continue as deputy Prime Minister until the end of the term. The admins have also state😛

'We can only be sad that a honest citizen like yourself was manipulated to believe that we did not issue the proper suspension message, and that you broke the eRepublik laws in order to support a cheater.'

It is clear admins are quite firm on this ruling and since they have access to resources and I don't, I ask that Australia accepts this ruling and moves on, no matter how you feel/think on the matter.

They have also informed me account sitting is not allowed, so I urge anyone who is to stop.

In other news, a weekly update from my ministers will be out sometime today.

Regards,

Patti11
Prime Minister of Australia

Nice to have ya back Patti, though I enjoyed being Emperor with Iwarrior. 😃

Mr. Awesome Day 555, 19:54

Welcome back Patti. Was it the account sitting that got him banned or was it something worse?

whitelaughter Day 555, 20:07

well done Patti, taking this with good grace.

Also good to know that account sitting isn't allowed; it wasn't clear.

Jish Day 555, 21:53

Well spoken Patti, It's good to see humility among our top eAustralian citizens.

Tom Reale Day 555, 23:56

Humility is a valuable assett for someone in your leadership position. Respect.

Edwina P. Montague III Day 556, 01:09

Good to see a leader stand up for what he believes. You did scotywest proud, we all hope you would back us if we were in strife.

Br0adside Day 556, 01:11

pfft nice article Patti but shame on you admins.

1. You dont want people to account sit? account sitting is there to help people out who arent there for a bit but want to still play when they get back, if they find their account has lost a HW streak, their wellness, has dropped a fair bit and theyve been fired.

They wont only not be 2 happy but they might just decide to leave and not come back, taking their m8s with them. Thats your potential $$$ running out the door if you didnt understand what I was saying b4.

Why is it u are always inconsistent? 1 moment you can have a guy admitting he has used multiple accounts but wont get banned, but you have a guy who account sits and gets the full bullet? Someones ethics are really messed up..

Ofcourse I probably expect to get a ban for this but hey, I guess thats what happens to people who stand up 2 the bigman or men or in some cases women. Yous need to get in a group and sit down me thinks so yous can have some situation sessions to get the best case scenario.

The option that comes to mind is to inform our citizens of the other forum and discuss such topics there.

@Br0ad : I'm yet to be banned for what I've said, particularly about Calibur so it's unlike that you'll be banned for the above comment.

Btw : Admins (if you read this), kindly tell us how on earth could Calibur not be banned?

petergladwell Day 556, 02:11

Way to take one for the team patti11. I can't help but be impressed.

patti11 Day 556, 02:50

@Broa😛 I see the benefits of account sitting but it is against the rules to do it. Unfortunately, we have to deal around it by either stocking up on food and on the longer occasions, getting your friends to donate some to your account.

scoty was not perma banned for account sitting, he was multiing.
