Dear Galaxy Community,
Thank your for your feedback regarding the removal of duplicate accountshttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/News/DuplicateAccountsOnMainon Galaxy Project's free Galaxy server, http://usegalaxy.org (a.k.a. Main).
If you have already replied, please know that we are currently processing your responses and feedback to terms_and_conditions@galaxyproject.org. Our team will be responding shortly.
Whenever possible, please follow the instructions in the original email, using the provided link to indicate the account you wish to retain. We have given a 30 day window to download or move data out of duplicate accounts, after that time they will be deleted, and there is no need to take additional action.
Please note that this process is automated and will continue, and repeat violation will result in permanent loss of access privileges. When moving data, be sure to move it to the primary account you have indicated, and not any duplicate accounts (existing or new).
If your account is suspended and you believe that you are not in violation of Main's terms of use, then please contact terms_and_conditions@galaxyproject.org.
Thanks,
The Galaxy Team

Hello all,
The terms of use https://main.g2.bx.psu.edu/static/terms.html for the Galaxy Project's free Galaxy server, http://usegalaxy.org (a.k.a. Mainhttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Main) specify
Your access to the Service is provided under the condition that you abide by any published quotas on data storage, job submissions, or any other limitations placed on the public Service. *Attempts to subvert these limits by creating multiple accounts or through any other method may result in termination of all associated accounts.*
In the past we have dealt with multiple accounts on an ad-hoc basis. Moving forward we are using an automated system to detect, disable, and eventually delete duplicate accounts. If the automated system determines that your account is a duplicate, your account will be disabled and you will receive an email asking you if this is the account you wish to keep. If it is, please follow the directions in the email and your access to that account will be restored.
If your account is suspended and you believe that you are not in violation of Main's terms of use, then please contact terms_and_conditions@galaxyproject.org.
Thanks,
The Galaxy Team
