I'm thinking about further restricting the eligibility criteria for my activities, or making them stricter. There's a simple reason for this: Unfortunately, there are some people on Tangled who are acting dishonestly and taking advantage of the system and the goodwill of others.
I'm sorry if this affects users who are "innocent" as well—but I don't see why I should hand out winnings to scammers.
I think I'll only approve future activities for "pink badgers" from now on, and probably require at least three purchased badges as well.
And yet another tightening:
I've been thinking about it for a while now. I've weighed the pros and cons.
And I've now decided not to give a single Millix to users from Pakistan until further notice.
You have a Pakistan Badge? You are out. I THINK you are from Pakistan? You are out.
There may be a few exceptions—if I know you and don't suspect you're a scammer, then it's okay.
Why am I doing this?
It's happened quite a few times now that I've been viciously insulted on Tangled by users from Pakistan. No problem—what does it matter to the oak tree if a sow rubs against it?
These people are intellectually underdeveloped—the average IQ in Pakistan is 75–80—while here, an IQ below 80 is considered a sign of mental retardation. So—why should I care?
But I don't have to throw Millix into the jaws of that Pakistani behemoth (and that's exactly what it is) as well.
I’ve noticed for quite some time now that many Pakistani users here create dozens of profiles, and in some cases even set up separate accounts for their children and wives just so they can get a pink badge or claim that these are independent profiles. But they’re not. Does anyone here really believe that a Pakistani woman is allowed to keep the Millix she’s earned??? Anyone who seriously believes that also believes in Santa Claus.
I can't believe it! And I've had enough. I've been putting up with this for a while now, and I've decided I won't tolerate it any longer.
Are you angry about that? Thank the Pakistani users who choose to cheat and/or be rude.
This will remain in effect until further notice. If I change my mind, I’ll revise the rules again. But for now, they’re fair to all honest users—because cheaters are stealing their Millix and chances to win.
(Challenges that are already in progress are not affected.)

I understand your concerns and why you’d want to tighten the rules given the issues you’ve experienced. It makes sense to want to protect your activities and ensure fairness for genuine participants. 😗

It's not so much a pain—it's more of a necessity. I don't like being taken for a ride either—so I'm taking the necessary steps. 😘
