Lamenting the recent decline in quality of WA resolutions, both in the GA proposals and in the SC resolutions, I hereby announce my intent to vote against everything that comes up there unless something is exceptionally good.

The current region theme following the end of Green Week is 8-bit, particularly in a delightful red flavor as chosen by first place winner of the raw points section, Dilwyn!

We will proceed to celebrate for an entire week as is deserving of stellar eco-friendliness.

Baelfire prevents things from existing in the future as well as in the past, retroactively. It's the best way to erase mistakes.

Although there will be inevitable time fracture incidents. Still, with great risk comes great reward.

Sorry, I missed this post.

I created this region back in January of 2019, so both I and the region have been here ever since then. I've been the head admin of our community since February of 2018.

In Refugia, though, the regional council administrates the region and makes decisions on its governance. They're co-equal leaders, just with different areas of focus. My area is mostly managing infrastructure and carrying out recruitment.

It seems like a nice “think about the children” resolution. But there are definite ways that it could be interpreted and exploited that would not be favorable. Plus you’re trying to create a broad blanket standard for a variety of cultures and societies, which is extremely difficult and potentially problematic.

Another problem is, you get into the issue of… if they have rights as an adult, then they should have the right to earn an income (child labor), defend their country (child soldiers), exercise their bodily autonomy by using drugs, etc etc.

Inaros Opa wrote:Yo can anyone share their opinions on the new WA vote? Why is everyone voting against? Want to hear folks' opinions.

My main reason was because they chose the term "parent" rather thanh the more appropriate "guardian," and also as a general protest against the recent decline in quality of WA proposals. I'll keep voting against all resolutions until I see something exceptionally good.

Pattevere wrote:On a similar note, any reason our delegates are against the Security Council's proposition now?

I've voted against the SC resolution because I find it to be something that would better be made into a dispatch. It isn't establishing a position on anything, it's just people involved in GP recognising themselves for doing a good job. Refugia doesn't really get involved in those matters, so I chose to vote against.

Basedilonia wrote:What is an "endorsement " and what does that mean for me?

Endorsing someone gains them more influence in the region. Refugia influence can only be gained here and goes away if you leave the region. Also, if you endorse me (the delegate), it gives me extra voting power in the world assembly. As a region, we've got a decent amount of votes, but we could always use more :)

You can endorse as many people as you want, as long as they're enrolled in the world assembly. You just need to go to the bottom of their nation page and click the endorse button.

Given the recent referendum results, I have taken the decision to resign from my position of Councillor of the Interior

Although the arguments for the dissolution of the position were about the position itself and my predecessors, I also know that my actions were not good enough and played a role in the victory of the dissolution.

This is why, even if no one told me to do it, I decided to resign from my position.

Have a nice day

Aren't they just electric cars then? Automobiles don't necessarily have to be bad for the environment. In most cases they are, but they don't have to be.

On a side note, I just legalized methamphetamines. And I'm not really sure if this was the best course of action. But at least I didn't need to ban sinus medication.

Usually people only send recruitment telegrams to new nations. Sending them to anyone else is generally considered bad form, but it happens anyway sometimes.

You can turn them off in your telegram settings if you wish: https://www.nationstates.net/page=tgsettings

It's actually correct inside the map files, but the zoom level got messed up, and they Y is outside the viewing radius. Should be a quick fix to get it the right size.

The Land Named Bob wrote:What is The Zyqxuwy?

The Zyqxuwy is a reference to an Order of the Stick comic (#31) that got turned into a kinda weird IC religion a long time ago (2009). Now it's mostly a word that sounds funny, and a convenient flying fish god when you need one.

Planets are a reference to ManiaPlanet Planets (https://doc.maniaplanet.com/client/planets). We used to use them for bets and other random things without meaning because they had no other practical use. When Dot's economy came out, I took the name and a modified version of their image as our own community currency.
