Unjust IP Ban?

Well it makes sense, South America is largely populated by people who immigrated (read: colonized) from Europe.

I guess European colonization didn't stop with tha intarwebz! :+)

Whereas the USA is largely populated by people who didn't immigrate from Europe?

I think the reasoning had something to do with language, although I don't think EMS has a Portuguese server. And this same reasoning should have made all Spanish-speaking American countries belong to EMS as well, which it didn't. But who said MapleStory franchises have to make geographic or linguistic sense?
