Dear friends,
I come to you today with frankly disgusting news. Remember months ago when the Canadians and Smee Again hacked the ONE org and published an article? At the time the admins refused to take the article down or give us the org back. Today it comes to light why this happened.
Months ago when the various countries of the world were submitting a list of national orgs, the Canadians did something disgusting. They submitted a list of many of the UK’s national orgs alongside their own. Someone in the admin team then added these orgs to the Canadian lists.
They then (now) claim them and take our property. We have done nothing wrong in this, but in the eyes of the admins those orgs now belong to the Canadians along with all their property. If the Canadian CP and people had ANY decency in them they’d ticket the admins and return our property to us.
I’m not going to add anything to this, but I urge all members of Terra and EDEN with some honesty and integrity to petition for this.

List removed upon threat of article deletion
Update: After contacting the guy who was CP when the orgs were made national, all 8 of the orgs supposedly owned by Canada were requested as UK orgs via the official email used at the time. What's more, the admins replied confirming they had been added to our list. How they ended up in Canada's list is a mystery, but we are assured they will be returned to the UK tomorrow.
Update 2: Although the admins responded saying they have our emails (proof included) in the whole 8 hour working day they haven't managed to copy paste from one list to another and reply. I am sure since this deals with an issue the community and countries feel strongly about (hence the 800+ votes) they could spare five minutes to deal with minor customer service problems like this.
Apparently not.

Well ..I guess it was listed as a Canadian National Org to be protected from being deleted .
As far as I know if an org is listed as National Org then the CP can request the Admin to reset the password (maybe the previous CP "forgot " to pass it on ).
I do not know the morals and the history behind it but my question is why did you list an official ONE org as a National Org of a country in the enemy alliance ?

Canada should join ONE. They own already the official ONE news org.

You mean that if you are the CP of a country then you can add whatever ORG you want as your national ORG ?
Isn't there any validation done ...like submitting a confirmation email to the email address used for the org's registration ?
LOOOL

It's Canada, what else to expect. They rob their own treasury on regular basis, why wouldn't they rob you? : )
vladb - apparently that is correct.
Official response of the admins- if it is on the Canadian list, it is Canadian in our eyes. There is no proof that it ever belonged to you.
How stupid.

This tells us 2 things:
- Admins sollutions are allways exploitable.
- Canadians are smarter than other people.
Deal with it.

How sad.
Ireland joining ONE?

Heil Canada
lololololol
Thanks to all the Terra and EDEN citizens showing their natural decency. This isn't about winning on the battlefield. This is about using game exploits to steal.
And yes admins are also culpable. Once we find the original tickets (currently submitted by a dead citizen) stating our orgs, there will be questions about how some orgs "accidentally" ended up on Canada's lists.

"Ireland joining ONE?"
Because people do not agree with stealing they are changing alliances.
You must be the smartest Leo Balzac.

Have some decency canada.
This isn't about Canadian people, it's just about their leaders. The CP has the power to fix this error. I feel sorry for all the ordinary players who are getting labelled as thieves and exploiters because of their CP.
But guys, it is canada
