Account settings
Change name
- You can change the name only once every 3 months, or once a month at an increased cost.
- You can change the name as many times as you want.
- The first name change is free. After the first time, the next name change costs 50 GOLD if the name is changed every 3 months, or 500 GOLD if the name is changed once a month
If the new name you are trying to use appears to be taken by another account there are 2 cases:
- The name is attached to an existing active citizen.
- The name is attached to a dead citizen account that cannot be found with the search option, but the database remembers it.
Note: If you want to change the name to the one you previously used and you can't, you should send a ticket to bugs department. Also, keep in mind that you can't use a name that was previously used by another Citizen.
When you change your e-mail, you will receive a message to your new e-mail address for confirmation and you get the following message: "You have received an email on your new address to confirm it."
Security
In the security tab there are three options:
- Facebook connect
- Change password
- Account safety code
Facebook connect
A citizen can connect their eRepublik account to their Facebook account.
If the citizen has set up this connection, here a note will be written: Your account is connected to Facebook. and there will be instructions how to disconnect your connection - this can be done by the citizen if their visit their Facebook Account.
Change password
In this field, current password should be entered and followed by the new password.
The password can also by changed by using forgot password feature.
Account safety code
Since Day 1,681, the safety code has been introduced to improve the security of the citizen accounts. The safety code can be set in the edit profile page and it needs to have 4 characters (numbers or letters). The code will be used for:
- downgrading a company,
- downgrading training grounds,
- downgrading a rocket factory,
- selling a company.
Entering the code incorrectly 5 times in a row will block making of any transactions. In order to unblock the transactions, citizen should send a ticket to the Game Support department for further assistance. The security code will only be requested while making actions stated above. Any other requests for the code may compromise the security of the account.
Please note: If your account gets hacked/phished and your safety code is NOT set, in cases where your companies/training grounds get downgraded you will NOT get any support/refund for your lost goods.
