Join the forum! Join the WA!

The Welcome Telegram that I sent you is a pretty good Basic Guide.

Welcome to the New Nations!

And ooooh :D 3rd on the Census

Good morning, good afternoon and good evening to all. I'm new here. Where's the pub?

Hello! Pub is on the Forum!

Welcome new nations!

FREEZE! THIS IS A COUP! http://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=218466

The Onions fit in the best part

That's nice, Hmbwe. I can see your coup is working so well.

Hello, hello, hello. Hello!

Hello, hello, hello, hello!

At least everyone has been greeted properly. And then some. :P

Dear Nations of Spiritus:

I am writing to inform you that I will be resigning my responsibilities as a member of Spiritus, effective January 11, 2013.

I realize that the process of finding new nations that will stay may be difficult, and I will do whatever I can to make this transition a smooth one. In large part, I will greatly miss the friendly environment I have found here in the region and there is no other region like it

I am pleased to have had the opportunity to be a part of such a great region; I wish you all continued success and growth.

Sincerely,

The New Confederacy of America

Why are you leaving?

NCoA, sad to see you go. Perhaps you can come back later?

Rusaltania, WELCOME :D

Realy? Stop saying "Hello." There is no point of doing that. It is also not formal, unless you know everybody as one of your "friends." You realy need to speak real.

Why is he leaving? There is no need.

Formalities aren't that observed on the RMB. Hell, I don't think I've ever been formal on this old thing.

As for why he's leaving? No ideas. Perhaps we'll find out later.

Either way, Welcome to Spiritus, N.W :D

Perhaps it's time for a new RMB Topic.

Hello, I had just joined. I will be leaving in thirty minutes. I will be making my own nation. Unless that is a very bad idea.

From: The Rogue Nation of Nigia Warriors.

Thanks for your concern.

Nigia, if you want to go, we can't stop you. However, you will certainly be welcome here! Perhaps you should poke around on our forums before you decide to leave? You might find it interesting.

Spirit: I refuse.

Your own region, you mean?

Well, I mean, I'd rather that you stay here with us :D

But it's your choice

I don't know, are all of the Nations the same as this one?

If they are I am going to stay. (does that mean I don't have to be formal?)

You don't have to be formal at all! And no, they aren't all the same. We are much better than the rest. :)

Salaxalans is very right. Spiritus is most definitely the best region ^_^

I have a few questions how does this whole entire thing work

Like is there a map of this place?

I am! Go log on; I can answer any questions you have.

How does this thing work? My first time joining.

Easy! All you have to do is click the link, type in a name for yourself, and then click "Connect". Then you should be in.

What do you mean Log on?

Up in the World Factbook Entry, click "Spiritus Chat Room". Then, just type in a name and click the button that says "Connect" on it. It should be there; it was the last time I used it...

Join, then! I can do my best to answer any questions.

I think I did, im not sure

Hello again, fellow region mates!

Hello again, fellow Spiritus nation leaders! I hope all is well with you.

Post by Plantagnet suppressed by a moderator.

I am here to apologize for the rude behavior of a member nation of my region. He did this on his own terms, without alerting me. I am sorry that he disrupted your RMB, and I am here to tell you that he has been strictly punished. You will here is rule breaking no longer.

Alright, sounds good.

Woot most cultured in the region! I have won all that is important in NS...

You have my congratulations, which is very important...in my deluded mind...

As long as it's important to someone!

I've been called self-important more than once. Might as well be me!

Goodnight, Spiritus. :)

Well 9 hours... Average sleeping time is 8.5... Which must mean...

It is now Good Morning, Idantir!

Sorry for disappearing for a while, I got really busy with work and family issues recently.

If it hadn't been for the business of work, I would have still been asleep when you posted that, Sorenian!

Also, welcome back to NS and Spiritus, Firewatch. I hope the fact that you're here means things aren't as hectic for you now.

Welcome back Firewatch!

Good to see you active on the RMB, Idantir :)

Welcome to all new nations!

Hello, fearless Overlord! I pay tribute to you now.

Congratulations to The Spirit for winning the elections as president! *Offers a hefty sum gold* Please, take my fairly modest tribute, Overlord.

I offer my tribute as well. With hopes that democracy grows in Spiritus for the good of the region!

I`m back (again) Sorry i keep going inactive..... busy!!! So i see The Spirit won! Congrats! Wow! when i joined at first we had 20.... then i come back from being inactive the first time and BAM!there was 100.... now i come back and now 361!!!!!!! Great Job Guy/Girls!! Have a great day!

Welcome back! Glad you decided to rejoin us. :)

And yeah, how fast we've been growing is pretty amazing...

I'm going to call all the "tributes" bribes from now on...

A bribe implies that we're getting some form of favoritism back for it.

Sounds good to me!

Muehehe, thanks.

I do like this new topic. Bow down folks. Bow Down.

Welcome back GBA :D

OMGHI NEW PEOPLE!

Unless you are a vegetarian!

Original or crispy? =O

I only eat murdered corpses! And only if they were murdered brutally! Cut the quick I say and let them bleed out! Takes hours and makes the meat just that much better!

My regional influence has hit Duckspeaker... Life? Complete.

I've just came back to this region and this was the first thing I saw :0

10 hours ago: The Republic of Bobuska ceased to exist.

10 hours ago: The Democratic Republic of Bluemonster1998 ceased to exist.

10 hours ago: The Republic of Georgiabania ceased to exist.

10 hours ago: The Kingdom of Michon ceased to exist.

10 hours ago: The Republic of Poiseonia ceased to exist.

10 hours ago: The Rogue Nation of Yomommashouse ceased to exist.

Yeah... That seems to be happening more often than one would like.

3 hours ago: The Matriarchy of Naritya ceased to exist.

3 hours ago: The Confederacy of Praemium ceased to exist.

4 hours ago: The Polytheistic Republic of The Fogland arrived from World Alliance of Christian States.

two other nations have ceased to exist since I joined o.O

oh well I think this region can cope :)

Yeah, it happens. Due to semi-daily recruitment, we have these giant bunches of CTEs from the people that have only ever logged in once.

We should be alright!

Yeah it's how this game works... People come to test it out and some don't quite like it... It isn't for everyone but so be it.

They'll be replaced, and we'll be bigger than ever! D:

Indeed :)

For now, it's going to drop a bit. We've got plans to recruit. It's okey!

Wow. Its still so cold where I am right now.

spiritus is a good place

well, i've done it. i'm here.

dammit theres a typo in my name. xD

Blambo, yes it is

Hey CC :P I was wondering when you would finally crawl out of GC an explore a bit ;)

Damn, I fell to second place.

In case anyone sees this before next update, I encourage all WA nations to switch their votes to oppose the current GA proposal, "First Responder Protection Act". It has some very serious flaws, such as violating due process by mandating a conviction, micromanaging by ordering cameras on all ambulances, defining "hindering" as "intervening with the situation on purpose" (which is exactly what first responders do...), and a lot of frustrating grammar/spelling mistakes in general.

It now looks like there will be a resolution to repeal this should it pass, so when that time comes, I encourage all to vote to repeal.

CC: The Zombie Paradise of the Salaxans:

Hey no disrespect or anything but I read over the "First Responder Protection Act" and I did not get the same impression. First of all the act says "Hindering first responders will be seen as an offence" meaning while the first responders are doing their job, anyone trying to "hinder" them from doing that job will be charged. Also the micromanaging is to effectively set up the legislation and ensure it is being followed properly.

I'll respond to each bit individually.

First, regarding cameras, what if the country hasn't developed to the point where they have cameras that can be installed in ambulances?

Second, it does say that hindering first responders will be seen as an offense. However, "hindering" is defined, partially, as "intervening with the situation on purpose". Since "or" is used between the different parts of the definition, that means each part can be used independently. Does a first responder not, at the scene of, say, a car accident, intervene in the situation on purpose? Therefore, they would be seen as hindering. Following section 1a, said first responders would immediately be convicted of "assault" and "assault on first responders" the moment they show up and do anything at the scene of an accident.

I'm very glad you have taken such a quick interest in things here! :) Welcome to Spiritus!

Post self-deleted by The Salaxalans.

That is a very interesting way of looking at the grammar and wording of the act. I didn't think of it that way. Thank you for your insight. I'll have to pay more attention to the small details.

Is there a way to re-write said act? Or suggest an option. It is a good idea but clearly needs to be re-written with more attention paid to the wording.

Thanks again, the Republic of Remordia looks forward to discussing future issues with your Nation. :)

The only thing you can do to resolutions that have passed is repeal them. A repeal has already been drafted on the forums for this should it pass, actually! Then it could, theoretically, be rewritten and submitted again. I don't know if anyone is even going to bother, to be honest.

I still miss things like that quite often! I read through the debates on the forums for each resolution, usually. There are links to the Security Council forum and the General Assembly forum on the World Assembly page. Also, I've set it up so we can debate them on our forum too.

It's interesting...most of the votes are for, but most of the posts in the debate topic for this resolution are against. It's interesting to read the debate topics and see the loopholes and alternative interpretations of the resolutions that you wouldn't otherwise note just reading the act.

Of course, so far I've voted against every resolution since I started, so maybe I'm just negative. :P
