Andreas Fuchs Posted April 1, 2017 at 07:03 PM Posted April 1, 2017 at 07:03 PM It's like this. As long as you cannot prove that you are two separate persons, the same IP and other indicators will trigger a double-connection alert, which is prohibited at VATSIM. Just provide your ID for a one-time verification process and all will be good. Please also note that you may be "playing" WoW. At VATSIM we "simulate" with a certain degree of seriousness. If you intend to "play", VATSIM might not be your place.

Kieran Samuel Cross Posted April 1, 2017 at 07:12 PM Posted April 1, 2017 at 07:12 PM (edited) that will not happends.....on the other network we can play together without any problem only here !!!!!! nwm i will not give a copy of ID or p[Mod - Happy Thoughts] ..... If you cannot co-operate with the staff member who is trying to [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ist you, you're not going to be using the network! Simple as. I guess today will be the day you and your brother stop using VATSIM at the same time, or will be when you lose your stubbornness. Alternatively, why don't you and your brother try shared cockpit? You might find it more fun, and more realistic, which was Andreas said above, is what we strive for here.

Andreas Fuchs Posted April 1, 2017 at 07:27 PM Posted April 1, 2017 at 07:27 PM Attila, I understand your cautiousness about sharing your details. I can only [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ure you that your ID will be handled with respect and confidentiality. As far as I know, our Membership Department will only verify that you and your brother really do exist, mark your accounts accordingly and then the ID/e-mail will be deleted again for good.

I think we are answering two different questions. Anyone is welcome to ask for your ID. You certainly aren't legally obligated to give it to us, but likewise we aren't obligated to allow entry to a private organization.

And did your employer not check your educational certificates/driving license when you took the job? yup they did ( there is a law for that.. me as trcuk driver i must prove my licenses to employer and they to ask me for the licenses ) but is something else when u are there and u show them and they will give u back but here i don't have any prove that my ID or p[Mod - Happy Thoughts] copy will be safe that's the difference.... nwm i have said what i had to say i don't wanna argue anymore or argue with u guy is your network u do what u want...

Ernesto Alvarez 818262 Posted April 1, 2017 at 11:32 PM Posted April 1, 2017 at 11:32 PM Its simple, simply show them proof that its 2 different users. Notice they are giving you multiple options to do it. You dont even need to show it all, black out the parts you feel are private and be done with it. btw this is covered in the vatsim docomeents especially how the network handles your privacy. If you cant do any of the above, stubbornness gets you so far. They wont be able to help beyond that If you have any questions regarding legalities, feel free to contact vatsims legal rep, he'll inform ya otherwise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
