    So I'm currently playing royals using uni network (international full-time student studying in the UK), and I've noticed a few thread on the forum talking about not being able to vote if another person from your uni/school/college has voted that day. So far there has been no trouble, but I would really like to prevent any confusion occurring (especially since voting abuse will lead to bans, and a misunderstanding is undesirable to anybody). I don't know if there are any other players in my uni. Any kind person out there with some suggestions? Or do I just have to live with the potential risks of playing on a uni network?

    I would highly suggest getting yourself a VPN with a dedicated non-shared IP address. There are many online services that offer these such as torguard.net. This would not only help sort out any voting issues, but would also protect your account in the case that you get banned for connecting to a network that somebody has been banned on before.

    Many thanks for your suggestion, Matt!
    I'll try figure this out (also looking back into the internet use rules of the uni to make sure that this is allowed)
