(To the admins: The RL elements of this article are used for comparison purposes only. This article is about FYROMian fail ingame
The excuse of the article being "spam" is really poor. We are talking of the falsification of a military unit name here. This is not spam, it is an insult to common sense).

Dear friends (and not so friends),

Throughout history both in Rl and here in eRepublik, we all have become witnesses of big failures. Failures that have different origins but mainly have the same purpose.
To falsify the truth and to steal something that belongs to someone else.

The greatest example of this proven failures, for us Greeks at least, is the constant effort of FYROM to falsify ans steal our history and the names and symbols of Macedonia.



I am not going to analyze or even try to disprove the false "arguments" that FYROMians are using to usurp the Macedonian heritage in RL. From people with a few gramms of brain to distinct university Professors, they all already know who is who and if Macedonians are Greeks or Slavs.
What has been disturbing though is the continuous effort of some eRepublik players to steal our symbols and names even in here, a massive social internet game, as it is something that will prove their RL propaganda correct.
If you make a search with the word "Macedonian" and just take a look at the avatars that those FYROMian players are using, you can easily see the ultra-nationalism behind it all. Avatars with the Sun of Vergina, a Macedonian (therefor Greek) symbol that is already copyrighted by the Greek Government and protected by the UN chart, avatars that show parts of Greece (the original Macedonian lands that is) as occupied by FYROM, in general avatars that show how some people are trying to impose their nationalistic illusions over an entire community of players from all over the world.
I will only though give you the perfect examples of how someone is trying to steal someone else's name and symbols, although those names and symbols pre-exist.



Around September (if I remember correctly) of 2009, I created an Organization called 1st Macedonian Phalanx, that was meant to host a military unit, a militia, that would co-operate with the Greek State Army. A few months (or weeks) later, some FYROMians, created the "Macedonian Phalanx", obviously trying to use the name for their own RL nationalistic propaganda and steal and falsify the true origins of this Greek military formation. The simple and only prove of the original Greek Macedonian Phalanx, is given by the number of the organisation that precedes by far the FYROMian one (1923195 - 1973636).
As if this was not enough, when the Military Units feature was introduced to eRepublik, and a little over a month ago, I again created the Macedonian Phalanx as a militia that would again work together with the Greek State Army. Guess what? some days ago, some FYROMian, tried to once again steal and falsify for their own RL nationalistic propaganda reasons, the name and symbols of the Macedonian Phalanx. And he/she created this abomination:
"Macedonian PhaIanx".
You can again easily check, which of the two military units preceded the other, by their number (145 - 34😎.



This is another poor and idiotic example of how someone is trying to create a non-existing argument to justify his (non)existence.
The "argument" that this FYROMian is using is this "I". The word "Phalanx" is written with L (l) and not with I (i) my dear friend.
If you actually want to steal something succesfully, then at least do it right. But you failed even in this simple thing...
I am assuming that even with this simple example, everyone can actually see what kind of arguments the FYROMians are using to justify their existence. False arguments, falsification of other peoples symbols, lies and fail propaganda.
As I already wrote in the title, you are characterized by the 3 F's:
FAIL FYROM FAIL...

From a true Macedonian, therefor a true Greek,
Thank you,
