Region: Lands End

History

Citizens of Land's End: N-Day 2 is approaching!

Once again, Nationstates will turn into a nuclear warzone.

Last time around, the AA united and we secured victory.

With the ties still recent, we may be able to do it again...

Or ever go for it alone.

One thing is for certain:

Something's gonna blow up.

I suggest everyone go and approve this https://www.nationstates.net/page=UN_view_proposal/id=digory_kirke_1503616564

How exactly do I do that?

I'm probably about to feel like an idiot...

N-day 2 is approaching! Will the AA once again dominate the fallout?

As your CTO I would once again like to encourage you to be active on embassy rmb's. Contact me if you're interested in being an ambassador.

Another nuke day!? Time to make Land- I mean lots of nukes. Lots of nukes... Yeah...

The AA is no longer a thing, but its member regions are bigger than ever. Our victory is at hand!

I was voicing aloud my wishful thinking for the AA to reunite with the incentive of another nuclear conquest.

Also, I would like to congratulate all of the former AA regions for your interregional communication recently. Even though we have cut our ties, more embassy posts have been left on all the rmb's than I have ever seen before. Keep it up!

Now... which faction are we all going to unite behind?

We probably shouldn't do CK. They won last time, which would make them a target of those who remember.

I apologize to Atkemri. I told him not to double-post; but in reality there was a deleted post from someone else in between the two posts in question. This deleted post threw me off and caused me to falsely reprimand Atkemri for double posting. I apologize and will be more observant in the future.

I swear the next time someone acts like a little bitch about "double-posting" I'm leaving this region. Some of you need to stop being keyboard warriors and just enjoy the game. Who cares? This region is supposed to be about freedom not deep web etiquette.

Shh, your hurting the fragile little snowflakes' feelings. Also, double-posting doesn't seem like that big of an issue to me. I feel like most of the time it's just an honest and innocent accident. (Unless your name is Christiana Libertad Civitatibus) However, while I do promote free speech, I would prefer if you would not use profane words such as "bitch." We wish to promote the sharing and spreading of ideas, and derogatory terms are not the sort of ideas I believe the majority of this region wishes to spread or share. Thank you for speaking your mind and opinion, but please next time don't be profane.

By the way, I agree.

Isollis

Well put. Apologies for the profanity. Just get annoyed with some of the more trivial matters. In my line of work that would be the PG version of the statement. This is a great region and I only get a few minutes a day on NS.

Hi there. Founder here, originator of the double-posting rule in this region.

Ever wonder what the difference is between this region and most others? Ever stop and think, "Huh, why does this place need to exist when there are twenty thousand regions already in the world?" I can tell you. We have a focus on quality here. Double- and triple-posts give any region a low-quality appearance. They are spam, and even if you cannot see it, anyone looking at the region from outside can. If we do not take a hard line on spam here, there is no point in the region even existing. Nobody wants to see you leave, Christiana, trust me on that, but if taking the region's quality seriously makes me a "keyboard warrior" in your eyes, there is not much I can tell you. You are certainly not going to threaten us into changing the rule with your departure.

There are countless other options out there, most of which were built without the same effort, devotion, and care that went into this one. I can even point you to some lawless spamfests where people can spew all the garbage they want--they are easy to find. Up to you.

Torranta wrote:I feel like most of the time it's just an honest and innocent accident.
No, most of the time it is because somebody did not bother to think before hitting "Lodge Message." A few seconds later, they realize they were too hasty, and clutter the board with a few words that could have been combined with the previous ones.
Torranta wrote:I would prefer if you would not use profane words... derogatory terms are not the sort of ideas I believe the majority of this region wishes to spread or share.
Also wrong. You are an official, and therefore you have the authority to speak for the region. Your words have weight to them. Do not chastise people for breaking rules that do not exist. If you have a problem with someone's words or actions, feel free to say so, but make sure you are clearly expressing your opinion, rather than that of the region's government.

Finally, the irony of this statement is not lost on me: "Shh, your hurting the fragile little snowflakes' feelings."

How can you say something like that, and in the same breath criticize someone for profanity and derogatory terms?

Isollis

Your point is well taken. The quality you refer to is what originally attracted me to the region. I know that my influence in the region is minimal, but I thoroughly enjoy it and my threat to leave was not meant as anything that would adversely affect Lands End, I don't overestimate my 5 minute a day hobby.

I'd like to apologize to the region for the outburst.

Man, it's been a while since I logged in.

My apologies. I did not make the intentions of my statements as clear as I should have. That's on me. What I was trying to explain was that nobody needs to make a big deal about double-posting. I believe a friendly reminder of "Please don't double post" is sufficient and neccessary. The fragile snowflakes comment was a running gag that has been shown on this rmb and was a separate comment from what I was trying to say. It was more of a meme than anything else, and I did not make that clear enough. Finally, I would like to make this clear that I was not speaking for the government, but was in fact, speaking my opinion of what I think is appropriate for the rmb. As the CTO, I have been trying to forge new relationships with other regions, and the first thing I want them to see on our rmb is not derogatory language. This was my opinion that derogatory language should not be used on the rmb because it scars our image just like double-posting does and I was not speaking from the government.

Also, the entire reason this whole situation occurred is my fault. I falsely reprimanded Atkemri for double-posting when in fact there was a deleted post in between Atkemri's 2 posts that I assumed were consecutive because I was too quick to reprimand him. My apology to Atkemri for this false accusation must have started the argument (if you could even call it that). I apologize. I sometimes forget that as a regional officer, what I say may be misinterpreted as governmental, when it is just my personal opinion. I will be more clear in the future.

I wasn't trying to argue, just commenting on the fact that I chuckled a bit at it. Your residency is a few days less than mine, I just didn't remember seeing you around much. That was more the point I was trying to make. A reservist in the army may have been in the army for years, but may only have an active time of a couple months.

Torranta wrote:~snip~

I'm not sure how much derogatory language would really hurt the image of a region on this website, or anywhere on the internet for that matter. I mean, those have been the only words to come out of people's mouths in some conversations and nobody even batted an eye.

I did not act in accordance to how a regional officer should, so I apologize to Land's End and Christiana.

From what I gather, Mercantana's main criticism of me was that I didn't make it clear what I was saying, and that I didn't make it clear whether I was speaking for the government or my personal opinion. Correct me if I'm wrong Mercantana.

And as a regional officer, a misconduct on my part is much more shameful than a normal nation's.

Regarding the current GA vote, I advise you to vote against.

This could very much hurt the economies of nations, and who is to say nations won't send their sick to nations who abide by this rule? And there is no legal way currently to make a nation pay for the treatment afterwards.

Regarding the current SC vote, I also advise you to vote against. I do not think a region should be commended just for being pro-LGBT+ or for holding many members.

In regards to the poll, I think the US and South Korea should invade North Korea. I know that sounds drastic, but hear me out. Due to international law, nations have the right to defend and/or counterattack if they feel their people are threatened. This makes it completely legal for the US to invade. Our people definitely do feel threatened in the face of attack and possibly even future nuclear warfare. Countries like North Korea don't care about international law. They won't let it stop them from achieving what they want. Given the threatening nature of North Korea and their nuclear program, I think it is safe to say they are prepared to break those laws. We cannot let them sit and grow in power. That's what we did in WWII. We didn't think Hitler was much of a threat, so we left him alone for quite a while. 80 years later, he is known as the single most evil man in history across the globe. His entire political party has been almost universally deemed as evil. We can't dismiss North Korea in the same way, but instead we must take care of the problem early on. If that means invading North Korea, dissolving their plans and freeing their oppressed people, then so be it.

China sits on the table of UN security council, therefore it is a Chinese problem. China has to demonstrate to other nations that they are able to maintain the international peace in Chinese's influence sphere. My thought.

That is basically the opposite opinion. How do you hold both of those simultaneously?

Anyway, I think we should threaten an invasion, and if they don't back down, invade, occupy, and either keep it as a protectorate or turn the land over to SK (who already has legitimate claim to the territory.)

We do have that missile defense system. Located in Alaska if we could intercept the nuke before it lands. Two problems however is the fact are anti-missiles missiles are in Alaska and only work about sixty percent of the time.

Right, and a forty percent chance of being nuked is way too high. Have a couple of those on standby in case they're needed, but don't rely on them. Rely on taking out their government before they're able to nuke us in the first place.
