why do you hate tesdai so much and also what on earth is going on
Antarctican Immagrants, Rutre
I woke up to 65 messages! What happened?
Oh I read the messages, why was someone spamming in the chat :/
They don't necessarily hate TESDAI, they are just stating that it is impossible to win successfully against TESDAI in war.
Who is UNOE?
South-Central Rhodesia, Antarctican Immagrants, Nortexit, Rutre
UNOE was a nation here a few weeks back, incredibly incompetent and disrespectful to everybody, eventually earned himself a ban for breaking rules. Now he's hell bent on getting revenge by constantly annoying us with puppets and stealing our members. Just ignore him.
Tesdai, South-Central Rhodesia, Antarctican Immagrants, The Tribia, Rutre
Ohhhhh, that UNOE. Well, it was him who broke the rules, how did he not expect to be banned?
I actually think UNOE previously endorsed me.
Tesdai, Antarctican Immagrants, Rutre
I think that the UNOE is at last banned

Post self-deleted by Rufia.
I believe I was, though I don't really remember him, or at least him breaking the rules in any capacity. I probably just didn't notice, and I imagine much of his annoyance was deleted or suppressed anyway
Antarctican Immagrants
Yeah. I have been here for awhile and I cannot remember UNOE at all.
Antarctican Immagrants
Since people are asking, I guess I'll give some context.
Much of this stuff with UNOE occurred in our Discord server, a little over a month ago I think. He joined and pretty quickly managed to annoy just about anyone he interacted with, not just in Lands End but in the entire Augustin Alliance, by being extremely inept and incapable of following even the most basic instructions. But that's not why he got banned, it was because he poached a Lands End member for his own region, which is a big no-no. After that he started creating alt accounts trying (and failing) to convince us that they were different people. Those ended up being banned as well.
Recently he started trying to poach members from us again, and after we told him off he started spamming the RMB here, and the NSmods banned all of his nations. That's the story.

Just because something is allowed doesn't mean its good or cool. If your founder isn't active your region is pretty much toast. Having authoritarian nations in the WA isn't uncommon, but many issues to help you become more authoritarian are suppressed by constant votes in the WA
Antarctican Immagrants
Again. Raiding and Defending is a legitimate form of gameplay in NationStates. Moreover, there are various measures regions take to protect against raiders.
Moreover, you can be in the WA and still have issues that allow your nation to go to an authoritarian direction.
Antarctican Immagrants
I am Spokane..
Legoa, South-Central Rhodesia, Antarctican Immagrants, Bazooka Joe
I'm not sure if you read the whole post. And almost all regions where the founder CTE's are pretty exposed to raiders if the WA delegate doesn't have executive powers
Antarctican Immagrants, Bazooka Joe, Nortexit
Look, if you dont like to r/d then you dont have to do it. But you dont have the right to tell people that they cant r/d because it wouldnt be right
Antarctican Immagrants, Nortexit
You gotta realize that 1/3 of the WA and 1/2 of the active WA is made up of bots of raider regions.
Antarctican Immagrants
Where do you get your stats?
Antarctican Immagrants, Nortexit
hey guys
New Tussia, Legoa, Antarctican Immagrants, Bazooka Joe, Nortexit
Not bothering quoting a bunch of messages but you are actually incorrect on multiple fronts.
For one, no bots are in the WA, its all human players, and its only one per human player. None of us are quite sure the methods, but the Mods do eventually catch anyone that breaks WA rules, its why we use it to make people identify they are unique.
The next thing is you said that if a WAD isnt executive, it cant defend against raids... when having a non-exec WAD is the single most effective anti-raid measure. Without an executive WAD, a raid is not possible.
Only in rare cases does a raid even ever target regions with any activity. Tag raids hit founderless regions with one or two endorsements on a delegate if any at all. Its simply a little back and forth between raiders and defenders 99.9% of the time and the game mods have already stated that it isnt something that will be made illegal. Mostly because theres no reason to, but also because theres no way to differentiate between a raid and a non-raid mechanically.
I love your enthusiasm, but please be informed on the topics you are discussing. Youve shown some pretty big lack of information when it comes to the World Assembly and R/D gameplay. Id be happy to discuss anything further, but Im not too in-depth about that. If youre interested in R/D, the Augustin Alliance has our own military, the Joint Task Force. Theres a link in the WFE for it.

I have finally done it!
I made my black market so slim, it has become an invisible black line! I mean, it's worth about 20.1 trillion Bonoas still, but it's basically none existent. It only takes up 0.1% of my economy.
Tesdai, Legoa, Antarctican Immagrants, Bazooka Joe, Nortexit
How you do it?
Antarctican Immagrants
No clue, it was just at 0.3% last night.
I think it was because of how I made it harder to get drugs from the black market.
Edit: It just went down again.

The bots may get banned, but they come back with a new e-mail. They are all human players, but are puppets of the master regions. Most R/D regions are pretty harmless except for Lily-related regions
Bazooka Joe, The Tribia
Here's are some tips for getting your black market down.
Don't choose anything that will make you seem like a liar to your citizens/don't lie to your citizens.
Don't choose things that make drugs banned, people will get them from the black market.
Tell your citizens the truth about everything; they will think you are trustworthy and buy more things from the government.
Give your citizens free drugs/make it legal to buy drugs (and other illegal stuff).
Don't force your citizens to do anything or they won't trust you and they will go to the black market.
Free the markets (I think you can do that in communism and capitalism).
Legoa, Nortexit
Two of the more notable raids were on embassy collector regions that were still active: Secfanatics and The Embassy. In the case of Secfanatics the efforts of the defenders provoked the raiders into making the region into an occupied trophy. The raiders were more magnanimous with The Embassy and have not harassed the region any further after the WA liberated the region. As I recall, there was also a raid upon The Great Universe embassy collector region, but the founder returned in time to halt the invasion. So, raiding and defending remains a point of disagreement, with the participating nations enjoying that part of the game, while the nations that strive to build up regions and expand regional embassy networks usually condemn the raiders.

Minister of Foreign Affairs Nicolas Resha, has stepped up to the podium, with worry on his face
"Earlier this morning, an Antarctican trade ship had entered port in the Hansa Federation, loaded with coal. All of our security checks had security checks, but for some reason, someone caused the ship to explode, we believe, by planting a bomb in our storage area and letting the...magic happen. It exploded around a minute after it left port. We are not sure who the culprit was, but we are certain that it was not an internal attack but rather foreign. We won't point fingers, but it is clear that someone from Hansa, has triggered this attack, maybe not the government, maybe a citizen, but it isn't clear who exactly ordered this attack. Thank you for coming here, before I go, I also want to mourn the one hundred and three Antarctican lives on board. Thank you again"
He stumbles away from the stage, and rounds the corner, yelling "nailed it".

Grand Government Convention of Haverade
5th March 2021
Convention is getting heated right now because of the agreement between Tribia and Haverade. Haverade agreed to choose a Haveradic law company to represent Tribia against Hansa Federation's recent claims that Tribia makes non-believers in thier country disappear.
President Brade is speaking:
...so, we must defend Tribian state against Hansa Federation's outrageous claims that are far from being true. These claims can damage the Tribian regime significantly and put our trading revenues in jeopardy. Tribia itself is a big trade partner for us and dozens of Haveradic countries export their goods in order to feed the Tribian people, gaining huge amounts of money in the process. I think with some of the best lawyers in Raddle & Porter, Tribia will show the other nations that they are right in this thing.
Labour Party leader speaks next.
How can you still defending involved in this international problem is not Haverade's job to do. We should worry about if the country can provide the worker's needs enough rather than defending another country in this problem. Also, Hansa Federation has every right to make these claims as we know how many refugees come from Tribia every year. These refugees are rejected from their nations just because they chose to believe something else and we must protect them rather than show the world that we are merciless corporate beings. I am gonna contest the decision to defend Tribia in the court and I will make sure that this contest will be successful.
It is unknown whether the council's decision will be, but if 3/4 of the council will opt to reject the agreement between Tribia and Haverade that indicates an Haveradic law company that Haveradic government chooses, Raddle & Porter can not represent Tribian state in the court. The voting will be expected to take place this evening.

The Tribian Chancellor steps up to the podium and begins to address the nation,
My fellow Tribians, recently there has been an attack on an ally to us. As we may not know the culprit yet, we still have our suspicions. Furthermore, from this day forward, the Tribian Navy will be patrolling and defending the straight on which we control (at the current time) all day and all night. No one is allowed to pass through accept those approved by the Tribian Government. Any individuals who break this rule will be dealt with in the following manner:
Those who come within 25 miles of the straight will recieve radio contact from a Tribian ship. They will be required to submit their info about their ship, where they came from, their cargo, and what buisness they are on. This is required by all ships (friendly or not) that they follow this. If the Tribian ship does not receive a reply by 10 miles from the straight, we will fire a warning shot. If by 5 miles from the mouth of the straight the foreign ship does not reply, we will disable their ship and take all those aboard prisoners and contact their country of origin. Note, if any foreign military vessel that is not an ally comes within 15 miles of the straight, they will receive a warning shot as it is illegal any foreign military ships be allowed through this channel. If they come within 10 miles and have not turned back, they will be fired upon, disabled, and we will take everyone aboard and contact their country of origin to sort it out. Also note, we have zero tolerance on breaking any of these rules and all will be dealt with the same.
With this last statement he leaves the podium, then walks down from the stage and leaves with the crowd clapping and chanting, Long Live The Tribia! Long Live the Chancellor!

Grand Council of Haverade
5th March 2021
The voting for overruling the agreement between Haverade and Tribia is finally done. Council leader, Rebecca Teyham from UBP (Unification and Brotherhood Party) exits the building and answering the most crucial question of the journalists: What is the result of the voting?
Rebecca starts to speak:
Earlier today, Labour Party has suggested an idea to cancel the treaty that suggests a Haveradic law company to defend Tribia against Hansa Federation's claims. While we see the Labour Party's concerns about this agreement, it is not strategic to just overrule an agreement that is making us closer with another country. The company gets money from Tribia and the lawyers get a job to do, so this agreement benefits both parties. So, most delegates from our party have opted not to vote against this treaty. As a result, voting has concluded with the result of 230 delegates voting against the proposal and 145 voting in favour of it. The proposal did not meet the requirement of 3/4 delegates voting in favour of it, so the agreement stays.
Labour Party Twitter account posted a tweet saying that UBP and HSP are both corrupt parties that serve for corporate benefits and promised people that they will save the workers from these parties' tyranny

I just learned with you, this RMB is the Russian Twitter. Should I make a factbook "ranking" this region?
So if you wanna make something extremely short just make sure to quote
Antarctican Immagrants, Nortexit
We're only asking that you keep the RMB tidy. It's not an unreasonable rule nor is it difficult to follow. There's no need to fill the RMB with double posts and messages that say nothing.
Tesdai, South-Central Rhodesia, Antarctican Immagrants, Biggonian Megaist Empire, Bazooka Joe, The Tribia, Nortexit, Coppatilism
Instead of a suppression at first sight, do a telegram for the first violation and then suppress if continued. Also can someone make a fact book specifically for RMB rules, as it seems like there are tons that are unknown of by newcomers, and thats where most of the "drama" that the company isn't fond of is coming from
Or you could just not double post, and there are rules, check the Lands End list of bylaws
Here's a link:
https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1276030
Tesdai, Artevenia, The Tribia, Nortexit, Rutre
There aren't "tons of rules that are unknown" because there aren't tons of rules to begin with. Don't double post is the only rule people would have to learn, everything else is common sense. This isn't a chatroom, the Discord is better suited for that kind of conversation. And the rules can be found in the Information Center, literally the first dispatch linked in the WFE.
To be honest, I don't even know what drama you're talking about. If someone breaks a rule the post gets suppressed and that's it. This isn't a punishment, it's just us keeping the RMB clean. I've been in Lands End for almost a year and you're the first person I've seen take issue with it.

Post self-deleted by Biggonian Megaist Empire.
I wouldn't exactly call your message being suppressed 'drama'. It's really not the end of the world if your message gets suppressed, people can still see it. And there's no like you even get punished for it.
Tesdai, Antarctican Immagrants, Nortexit
Ignorantia juris non excusat.
The first dispatch pinned, the Information Center, states these rules clearly.
[spoiler]
3. What are the rules here?
-Do not double post on the Regional Message Board, meaning don't post right after you just said something.
-Do not act like a child. We are not fond of immaturity, and we will send disruptive players to our in-house daycare area.
-Do not ask for a welfare check. We all work for a living.
-Do not get offended when someone inevitably disagrees with you. The proper response is to address their points calmly.
-Follow the site rules. If you break the rules and attract NationStates moderator attention, you are likely to lose your job at the Company.
[/spoiler]
Failure to read the rules does not create an exception. Do not become upset when we take pride in the quality of our RMB and suppress posts that are of low quality or are double posts. We always respond when someone asks why their post was suppressed because we expect nations not to be ignorant of the rules they were suppressed for breaking.

Earlier , we have a debate about abolishing the labour unions. That law was proposed by Assemblyman Rimss from the Cailona Republican Party. He stated that labour unions will start to insurgency in companies. Noli Latibo , president of Labour Unions of Cailona Association said that the labour unions are negotiating arm for labor force. In the end of the session , the parliament have not decided on this law by the vote of 200 yes and 200 no with 50 abstain and 50 absent.

Yeah. Sometimes editing stuff that you want to add to your old posts makes your posts sound like hobo talk. Like b chill if the two posts talk about entirely different stuff and if no one else has spoken for a while.
Well that's a little bit different, as long as what you have to say is long enough to warrant a new post
Edit: I'm officially in love with the themes

So it's like saying your country has prohibition to increase public health. But you start punishing people that use alcohol in science labs and for medical purposes.
Just like having a double-posting rule to prevent spamming, but punishing people that put a roleplay post and a response to someone else in two separate posts right next to each other.
