"My eyes! My eyes!"
Matrixulated, The Xylophian Islands, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Alekseandrea
Freedom gives you Money and Power; absolute Freedom is a dangerous concept, as everyone is free to do anything in pursuit of Money and Power, thus generating Instability, Corruption, Crime, Tyranny, Mass Hysteria, Violent Revolution, and Anarchy; an Anarchy that is usually short-lived; until a new order arises out of the ashes of the old; with that new order sometimes making use of remnants of the old order, in building the new one, unless it is completely ideologically opposed - It is natural that anyone; any body, grouping, or organisation would wish to limit Freedom to a greater or lesser extent; a balance must be struck, between Freedom, and what is socially acceptable; what is not disruptive or destructive to normal society, whilst also seeking a a positive developmental goal; a future evolution for you as a people, as a society, as a nation, and a global civilization...
Matrixulated, Alekseandrea, The Botched Pejazzle Of The Studly Spud
A nation, a government, an administration, a people, a society, or civilization that seeks to avoid Change, avoid Progress; stifle education, ignore or turn away from scientific and technological development, restricts personal liberty purely based on an outdated morality that has no basis in Reason; these nations, governments, administrations, people, societies, and civilizations will fall and crumble and change will occur nevertheless - Entropy is a basic rule of the Universe...
You worry about public nudity? - Why? - Is your concern for what you will see, or for the person who is nude and may risk their health (if you have bad weather)?!

Meanwhile a group of primitive savages in Vivi country burn an entire enemy city to the ground. Whether it was burned to the ground with the residents still sleeping inside depends on who you ask. They dance their war victory chant around they feast on some unnamed mystery meat from a rotisserie and the witchdoctor gets drunk off some enemy spirits.

Hi! I'm new around here. Can somebody show me the ropes a little? The game's great, though there are still a couple of things that I don't really get. I've already answered all my issues and have blocked all recruitment telegrams, but I don't understand a thing about gameplay, roleplay, the military and the regional government, and I would really appreciate help.
Matrixulated
i could use some help too
Matrixulated
I guess we just have to wait. By the way, what do you need help with?
Matrixulated, Supersecret
Hello there! All the different parts of this game do seem vast and complicated at first, but don't worry, as you learn more and find out what you like it becomes much more manageable. I do recommend, at least to start out, checking out the region's forums as well as its chatrooms. The forums are where you find guides and information on a lot of things, such as this guide to Military gameplay: http://w11.zetaboards.com/Spiritus/topic/11019132/ and in the chatrooms live many ancient knowledge spirits who hold the key to everything you want to know...though you're more likely to just get some fool like me to help you.
Explaining every aspect of every part of the game would take up much more space than the regional message board could reasonably hold, but that should give you a good start, at least. Let us know if you have any questions or need any more help in any way!

Well, it was suggested that I might be behaving a tad paranoid these days.
After a recent confession and pyre-side chat, with a very untrustworthy friend of dubious character and for whom I have the utmost disrespect, the recommendation was made that I should insulate my noggin.
Job done.
I can even pick-up HBO for free with these hats.

Noooooo . . . I'm not afraid of Communists.
I think every civilized, educated, intelligent, safe and healthy Democratic country should have at least one 'Commie' country around just to complete the guest list, ya know?
Like the one black friend you might have, or that one gay guy you might know, or the ex-girlfriend or boyfriend that still talks to you even though they've definitely moved on, and definitely traded-up . . . wait, am I their one token pitiful relationship slot on their guest list?

A world assembly endorsement means that another nation liked your nation's politics, flag or the fact that you endorse them back. If you have the most endorsements you'll be elected as Regional Delegate, (for so far as I understand it).
Matrixulated, Asteriksia
For example, I endorse nations that have a high political freedom rate, because my nation values that greatly
Matrixulated
Indeed.
How fast was that!

Alas, I feel a burning apathy for American politics.
It went wrong when they thought independence was a good idea.
But, if I was a conspiracy, I would use tinfoil to test my mind-controlling substances.
Even IF they discover your nefarious plot, they wouldn't be believed.
Since one can assume the amount of conspiracies mounts as the world population increases,
and they can come to the same conclusion as my, no doubt, superior mind,
the chance of "mind-controlling" tinfoil reaches 1 as t goes to infinity.
Thus, while it might not be a problem yet, it will be one in the future.

While I was sleep-depraved and catching-up on RMB posts I just happened to read your post (within seconds of you posting it)
went to my stats page to see if I had room left for one more endorsement under the salary cap of 60, where I saw I had just reached 60 because you had endorsed me soooooo I endorsed you in return . . . aaaaasnd then posted on the RMB.

So an artifact poacher tries to steal a sacred indigenous tribal relic. What that foreigner didn't know was that the tiki-mask he stole belong to a long line of voodoo witchdoctors. That tiki mask was was a cursed object that brought an indefinite time of suffering to angbody that poseses it. Their hands would rot until they returned it to its rightful place.
The Nazis were Christians who decided use the followers of another monotheistic religion as scapegoats.
Sounds familiar.

I find your lack of faith... Disturbing.
*makes choke motion with hand*
Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, The Botched Pejazzle Of The Studly Spud, Jack Chick
The rotting was caused by supernatural means, not biological. The rotting only affected those who touch the cursed relic. You're nation probably doesn't have any voodoo witchdoctors, that's probably why you don't understand. We wash hands quite often here thanks.
The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Alekseandrea
Also you must realize that ancient tribal artifacts tend to remain forgotten and buried in some dark cranny somewhere for a VERY long time. Archeological artifact poaching is never quite the most clean activity to begin with. Buried deep in the earth in tons of ancient ruin rubble, perhaps covered in moss for at least a century.... Ew.

Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Ah-Eh-Ioh-Uh, Jack Chick
I wouldn't call 'bacteria' or 'fungus' supernatural.
They are somewhat necessary for the proces of rotting.
Of course we don't have "Voodoo witch-doctors"!
JZJ creates more than enough zombies on his own.
You want to drown in zombies or something?
In this case you don't need to wash your hands.
Wash the bloody artifact!
And this magically prevents you from cleaning the artifact AFTER you found it?
I believe your idea of hygiene renders the term meaningless.

Atheists don't really do very well here in Vivi Nation. They start trying to convert people to their ignorant religion and the next thing you know they have a shaman's curse put on them. Most of them can't stand it here and flee to other countries where people can stand their intolerant BS.
