Why do I need my or another player's User-ID?

Post by Guest » 02.05.2010, 18:09

Why do I need my or another player's User-ID?

The User-ID is a special numer that identificates your account (or the other player's one). Every User-ID exists only once and is a clear sign for an account.
It is very important to add your User-ID to a request about your account.

Imagine you recieve a contract with an unallowed price (like a way too high one). If you only memorise the player's company name he can simply change it and then this company cannot be found anymore by the upjers-support.

Always pass on all relevant User-IDs!

Where can I find another player's User-ID?

There are different ways to find them but here is just one that always works.

Condition: You know the correct company name.

1) Click on "Stats".
2) Click on "Search Company".
3) Type in the player's correct company name and search for it.
4) You can now see a company information. Click on "market offers".
5) Check the URL-line of your browser.
The numbers between "usernummer=" and "&sort" are the User-ID of the company you are looking for.

How can I find a company via its User-ID?

How can I find a company via its User-ID?

Do you know a player's User-ID but not the company name, maybe because the company changed its name?
Then follow the next steps:

1) Click on "market".
2) Chose a random company out of the listed ones.
3) Click on its company name.
4) In URL-line of your browser you need to replace the numbers after "suchenr=". Fill in the User-ID of the player you want to check.
5) Check the URL and enjoy!

How can I change my company name?

That's easy!
Visit your office (menu at the top of the page), then click on "profile" on the left and you can easily see the field "company name". Simply type in your new favourite one and confirm it with the adequate button at the end of the page. :)

Somebody asked for the eMail-adress I put in my account.

Somebody asked for the eMail-adress I put in my account. Shall I give it to him?

No!
Whenever somebody asks you for your eMail-adress you should be careful! Never give your eMail-adress to other players. Unfortunately this has been mis-used and ended in the lost of accounts.

Please contact the upjers-support in such cases!

Somebody asked for a link out of my account. What to do?

Never publish any links out of your account!
Asking for links out of an account can be an indication for the motivation to rip others off.
There is only one link you may give to others: That is the link to your showcase that can be found via the "search company"-function.

Did you already give a link to anybody, please logout immediately! This makes old links invalid so that is no more danger for your account. If you want to be completely sure you should change your password, too.

Please contact the upjers-support in such cases!

How can I upload a company banner to my showcase?

How can I upload a company banner to my showcase?

Please notice:
- You can only upload such a banner when you have got a premium account.
- The maximum size for your banner is 468*60 pixel, 20 kB. The format has to be .jpeg or .gif.

Keeping the two aspects in mind you can follow the next steps:
1) Save the picture on your computer, e. g. on the desktop.
2) Go to your "profile" ingame.
3) At the end of the page you can see a blank field with "banner". There you can click on the button directly beside the blank field and search for the banner on your computer (in our example: desktop).
4) Click on "upload". Your banner is now saved on the Kapilands-server.
5) Click on "change".
6) Be happy and enjoy your new banner!
