VERY VERY Important Post - Read this IMMEDIATELY
If you have registered here at VoodooHQ under a specific player name, and that is NOT the name you are playing under, the host that checks who is playing the game against the list of registered players will assume the password has been compromised and take the following actions....
1) YOUR IP ADDRESS WILL BE BANNED FROM THE GAME!
2) THE SERVER PASSWORD WILL CHANGE
3) YOUR IP ADDRESS WILL BE BANNED FROM THE VOODOOHQ WEBSITE
Q) What does this mean?
A) It means your days of NOLFing on Voodoo have just come to an end
If the host is nice ( like me ) you will be given a few minutes to answer any questions about why your name doesnt show up on the registered list and allow you to change it to what it should be.
If you do NOT answer, or come up with a really bad excuse like " My Dog ate my player name " or " The sun was in my eyes "....your IP addy will be banned and blahdee blahdee blahdaa.
If the host is mean.....you wont be given the chance to do anything except hit the escape key if you can guess the ban is coming. Us hosts can be pretty stealthy...so...what ya gotta ask yourself...is....do ya feel lucky?
Seriously...
Its a really bad idea to play under a name you didnt register, so dont do it.
did you and your friend get deleted?
while the tone of this post is intended to be humorous, the message is very serious. those of you who share your computer, connection or email accounts will want to pay very special attention. those of you INDIVIDUALS with multiple voodoohq accounts will want to fess up before we delete your a55.
do you share a broadband line and/or email account with someone you love? do you both nolf? did you both register here at the voodoohq?
wow! that's fantastic! welcome aboard...
did you bother to take time to introduce yourselves as gorf suggested?
no? oh. so sad. we probably deleted you. see, we have this policy that says "only use one name" and when things look like someone isn't following the rule, we simply won't hire private investigators to hunt you down and make you explain yourself. however we really do want nice people to play, even those people who, like some of us, share (even if only briefly *sigh, lament*) the same
_X_ broadband line
_X_ dwelling
_X_ car
_X_ computer
_X_ soap
_X_ other [please specify] thats dish soap, you pervs!
we really don't ask for that much info and there are some details we really don't want to know, especially about what you two were doing with the neighbors and their cat. nonetheless, if you don't let us know that there are multiple people sharing a broadband line, we can only assume you're one of those evil name switchers. experience has shown us that people who register multiple names are usually unable to follow the few rules we must have to make gameplay more fun...
if we think you're a name switcher... we'll have no choice but to delete your a55 again. we don't have time to look anywhere but gorf's "introduce thyself" thread to see who you are. you can avoid this by introducing yourself and your ... person o choice. while you're at it, why not say "hi, my favorite level is... i like kung f00 movies and pineapples..." we really do want you to play. please, re-register and introduce yourselves. for those who just don't know what to say, we've prepared this entirely optional fill-in form:
