To cut down on the number of target/disposable accounts created, we will start requiring the email validation step to be completed before certain actions in the game can be done. You will still be able to login immediately after account creation and while you are waiting for the mail to come you can continue to play, however, after 24 hours, your email must be validated in order to continue to play the game.
Email validation will help aid in the process of slowing down users who create accounts for targets or for other nefarious reasons. Normally we try not to bother users, but this is one thing that I think we can each take a few extra seconds to do to ensure the greater good of the game and the level playing field.
As you can tell from our privacy policy and our extensive track record - we don't spam or distribute your email address. With the exception of administrative contact with a question, vday announcement, or a happy holidays, we will respect your time spent in email as well as ours. We hate a inbox full of junk too, we would never wish that on our users.
This policy will start being enforced in 3 days. If you are using an email that can not be validated, please go to the Manage Menu -> Change Email option, or directly to http://mafiareturns.com/manage/email_change.php
Thank you all for your patience and understanding,
Scott
