You mean an RP tag? You can do that by typing RP and then bolding it, like this RP. You can find the bold tool above the text box.

Just put “RP” at the top of your roleplay post, on the line above the actual text. You can bold it, italicize it, etc. if you want.

In the early days of Pacifica, when I was there, I remember that some of us liked to roleplay. It was the first grasping attempts at NSRP on the Pacifica RMB, and it gradually evolved and people seemed to enjoy it. There is very likely still a place for roleplayers here. Don't forget where we came from.

Semper Pacifica.

Yes.

It's just that this is a new beginning and some are too apathetic, busy, or new to do RP at this point.

We'll eventually get a fever for RP.

Czech Germania, Toerana Iii, Nationific

Hi folks. Badivermeraed here. I'd like to formally announce my campaign for PM. While a full campaign post will be made sometime in the near future, I'd just like to do a quick overview of what I plan for the region.

1. A reflection on what this region is really about.

How often do you pause and think about NS, and what regions are for? Like, seriously folks, what are some thoughts on the future of this region? Well, I'll tell you what I think NationStates. I believe we're all here to come together as a regional family, regardless of outside factors. While that might sound sappy, it's what I genuinely, truly believe. We should, nay, need to have a complete hard look at what we want to accomplish, for this first goverment shall set the precedent for all future goverments.

2. Increasing regional security

Our security has thrived under a team comprising of Cormactopia Prime, Rockiberg, Sho, Wymondham, and myself, supported with responsible ministries. However, I have an amendment all ready to go that will fuel our security for months to come. What I've been working on, along with a few others, is a program that will be working with other handpicked regions for joint security of our respective regions. I've waited a while, but I believe we are ready for this task.

3. Foreign relationships

While we are a friend to many regions, and that feeling is often returned, I know we can do better at getting engaged with different regions. If you look around us at all our embassies, you'll see different people from all walks of life. I feel as if we do not get enough of that. I feel like we should encourage Thalassia to our embassies, to open it up to various events, as we've seen some different regions doing. Thalassia, in my mind, should be a place of great conversation, and will be under my proposed administration.

4. A regional discord?

I'll just make my stance clear on this topic. I support a regional discord. When I notice a new nation asking if we have a discord, and get turned away, I always think of other regions, who have very active discords, getting these fun new people. I know that a discord will help communication between the people and goverment, which is citizens elevated to this status to serve.

5. A transparent goverment

A goverment needs to be transparent, and I know that many of you wonder what goes on in the goverment discord. That's why I'd like for ministries to be transparent, and for ministers to be open and a clear representative of their ministry.

I'd like to, again, announce my campaign, and please invite each of you, if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, to respond via TG or RMB.

Please also note that I'll have a formal campaign policy dispatch up sometime tommorow.

Semper Thalassia!

Now that Sho isn't running for Prime Minister, I cast my support to Badivermeraed.

Badivermeraed, Ayeinc, Veaetmar Ii

I'll be supporting Badivermeraed as well.

I would also very much like a regional discord since I feel RMBs can limit us to what we talk about or do for fun in the region.

Addendum: Just found out that Wintreath has finished their Underhusen elections last October 8. I will continue making announcements of this nature for the regions I am ambassador to.

Badivermeraed, Ayeinc, Wiskawga

I’m happy to hear that Badivermeraed is entering the race for PM, as it’s always good to have a competitive election. After seeing his campaign announcement, I have a couple questions for him (with multiple parts, just so I don’t assume anything incorrectly) regarding his support for a regional Discord server:

[spoiler]

1.) You say that having a regional Discord server can allow for better communication between the people and government. Does this mean that you would merge the government Discord server and the public Discord server to create one, universal Discord server for the region? If not, then how would you set up a communication system between the different servers (unless you meant something else, such as announcing events and administering surveys on the public Discord server, which are then passed on to the government one)?

2.) You say that there are new members who would be willing to enter into a Discord server for our region, and I assume you mean that having a Discord server available to them would help them integrate into the region. However, it is not known whether the majority of new nations have access to Discord, or would prefer using a Discord server rather than the regional RMB. So if the majority of new nations actually can’t use Discord, or wouldn’t be active or happy in a Discord server, would it not be unfair to that majority of new nations to have a regional Discord server, since that server would draw activity away from the RMB and leave them struggling to find active roleplay or discussion to participate in? If the majority of new nations actually do have Discord, is it still not unfair to ignore the minority of nations (who, despite being a minority, may still make up a large number of new nations, as Thalassia continues to grow) that do not?

i dont support having a regional discord. since it takes away from the rmb, which means new joiners will see the rmb and not think its exciting and something they would care about. Also because many people dont have discord.

Including me

I won't lean one way or the other in terms of a Discord at this time, but I would like to remind everyone that the creation of one will require an amendment to the constitution and a referendum. It would need 3/4ths of the vote to pass- so if the community is against it, it won't happen. It would be prudent to focus on policies that are perhaps more immediate and certain.

Dekks, Czech Germania, Toerana Iii, Nationific, Wiskawga, Dwarf Land4, Veaetmar Ii

After freshly considering the field of candiates I would like to endorse Badivermeraed. Bad and i have worked closely as MoHA and MoI respectively. He is the best intelligence guy I know on NS. His dedication, intelligence and ability to think on his first is unparalleled across NS and I urge you all to back him in these elections

Badivermeraed, Ayeinc

Just felt I'd drop in the fact that I'm endorsing Czech Germania as PM!

While there are some good candidates running, I believe that Czech is the best for the region!

I'm not Commander Shepard, but Badivermeraed is still my favorite PM candidate on the Citadel.

In John Stossel news

|RP|

Crime is down, economy is up, freedom secured...

In recent times, the John Stossel Kill Crime Commission has recently been disbanded following the success of their mission, to quote: "Kill most of the crime while keeping freedom free" While there are arguments over whether or not crime has truly been killed in John Stossel, World Assembly census readings do report record lows in crime, however John Stossel remains one of the foremost criminal nations in the region of Thalassia. The census seems to support the idea that most of John Stossel's crime is and has been non-violent, but the data is not specific on the type of crime, only that the death rate is low, and not closely correlated to the crime rate.

Badivermeraed, Ayeinc

I officially endorse Badivermeraed for Thalassia's next Prime Minister!

[/spoiler]

First, thank you for the questions! I'd like to just promise this right now: I am open to any suggestions, comments, or criticism. I would very much like to know what Thalassia thinks of my campaign, and if elected, I will continue to take feedback.

And now my response to Czech:

[spoiler] 1. First and foremost, I completely support the goverment being transparent. However, to accomplish this, use of the goverment discord opening to all of the public is not the way to go. I'd rather there be two separate discords, as there are multiple projects being worked on in culture, security, etc. Other than that, I wouldn't want to force any goverment employee to be forced in a discord that is different but merged.

As for communication, that's very easy to accomplish. We have an actual set ministry that can release reports on the goverment and make announcements. They'll be the most helpful in this task.

2. I think two of the main concerns on this idea of a public discord is a. Security, and b. taking away from the RMB.

First things first, I'd like to just address the security concerns. The MoS is a combination of two great ministries, and has never let us down before. There have been many successful tasks completed, and every operative is very dedicated and takes their job seriously. I do not believe security will be an issue.

As for detracting from the RMB, I'd think it would add to it. During the presidential debate that was very well put together and civil, the moderators were using a group chat with all the candidates in place of an RMB post. This kept the RMB clean and there was no break from the discussion. The debate was also exclusively planned on discord, and went on without a hitch.

I'll bring up another example, as well. Before the Pacifica North convention, it was planned out also on discord. We haven't had any event planned on the RMB come close to those two, and imagine what planning an RMB war would look like on a public discord! I know that a discord and RMB system works well, as I'm in multiple regions, including our embassy Wintreath. [/spoiler]

It is my hope that you, the people, make an educated decision on the next PM, and I know that anyone elected will do their best.

Semper Thalassia!

Glad to see a great field of candidates and I want to give my full backing to Badivermeraed. That isn’t a slight on the other candidates but a recognition of the character, integrity and competency that Bad has shown ever since I joined the last government of Pacifica.

I don’t personally support the policy of a public Discord but I don’t see that as a crucial issue in this election.

Veaetmar Ii wrote:If the Discord channel were to be kept for private Government use would you support an initiative to publish the transcripts of cabinet meetings?

Absolutely. In fact, I have called for transparency of the government since June or July. If elected, I will publicly release transcripts of all cabinet meetings every month after they happen. One month may seem like a long time but regions like The North Pacific are a full 12 months (1 year.) The only time I might not publicly release something is if it continents something very personal or still currently going on and is intel secret. And even then I might only redact parts of the messages or at least show that we were discussing and can’t be released at the moment.

I will public them all in a dispatch on my nation unless the founder wishes to archive them for me. :)

Veaetmar Ii wrote:

As I’ve mentioned before, making government more transparent would be one of my primary goals in office as PM. However, due in part to the security risks imposed on our region by enemies such as the Levelers (who have resorted to planting numerous spies in our region over the past couple of months), I do believe that there is some information that should be kept within government - specifically, information that is deemed too important to the security of our region to be released to the public (where spies may easily retrieve it), and information that is deemed too unimportant to the public to be released.

In accordance with those restrictions, I do not believe that raw transcripts need to be published. Rather, I believe that, should the information circulated in a cabinet meeting be deemed important enough to the public but not important enough to our enemies for release, the Ministry of Information should develop a processed overview of what was said in that meeting. That overview would be a more digestible form of information for the public, excluding unnecessary dialogue and references that the public may not understand.

Veaetmar Ii

Though I'm sad to see Sho not running for reelection, I once again like that we have a strong array of candidates for election.

Honestly, the worst thing about these elections is that I can only vote for one person.

Badivermeraed mourns the death of king Ignacio. PM Kenan Churchill plans to attend the service, and will bring a guard who's primary responsibility will be to fire a 21 gun salute. In an address, he offers condolences to the royal family and the nation, saying: "It is with a heavy heart that I must say goodbye to my dear friend. I agreed with him on many things, and his love of country and his people was one of them. I shall miss him terribly. "

In addition, Badivermeraed will send Rob Swenson, a famed friend of Ignacio, to say a few words.

The Kingdom of Maritagnia agrees to this and requests they bring their native dishes for the funeral feast (a typical part of Maritagnian funerals) as well as this is customary in Maritagnia for the allies of now dead people to eat with the family in honor of the recently deceased of the family.

The nation of Maritagnia thanks the people of Czech Germania for their concern and kindness and thanks them as well for their support for this harrowing time in Maritagnia's history.

The Government agrees. Government officials are preparing to bring some native dishes

Also, just a note, my AMA (ask me anything) is still in effect, so be free to ask me... Anything ;)

I will be holding an “Ask Me Anything” (AMA) now. It’s fine if you’re late to asking a question. I will ask your question anyways. Feel free to ask anything about my campaign.

Given how your positions in other regions are similar to the ones you are proposing, like a court justice, chief of staff, etc, what would be your main intent in that action? Namely, if the goverment is working, in my opinion, efficiently right now why would there be a need to add roles on? Do you think deputy PM could do the same roles?

Why are there currently acting ministers and an acting prime minister

Currently, everyone has just adjusted on a move from our old region. Due to legitimate safety concerns, we had no choice but to declare an emergency and move to here, Thalassia. As for acting ministers and such, we are currently having a transitional goverment, while PM elections are going on. After the PM is elected in by majority, then there will be a formal government made. After that, only a few more steps and we have a fully functional, brand new spanking region.

Welcome to Thalassia! We are doing fine, though it has been rather quiet. We are currently electing our first PM. Have you read any of the links on the main region page?

[spoiler]I somewhat wasn't notified by you quoting my post. Probably because it was edited. But anyways, I will be glad to answer your inquiry and will ask you an question for your AMA later too. :)

As far as I know, I never said I'd establish a court in my PM post. I'm assuming you're referring to this. I'd like to clarify myself: I was only joking. Perhaps I should had also said ":P" to identify that I was joking. Cormac made a very good argument for why a court isn't necessary. Personally? I still some sort of arbitrator to handle questions of the law and handle disputes but it's clear we don't we a full out Court or even an arbiter. As I've expressed, that's only my personal belief, not a belief that Thalassia should adopt without brain storming. And I've said, I never proposed such idea though if in the future if we could actually/i] form an arbiter position and there's popular demand or support for it, I will work out making the position. But there's no public demand for it. So, I won't propose it.

As for Chief of Staff, I think it's a good idea since it would head of my proposed advisory board. The reason why I don't support merging it into Deputy PM is because the Deputy is just a Minister trusted with back-up responsibilities and I am proposing making it chair of cabinet meetings. CoS is more of a former PM/President position to be the head non-Cabinet minister advisor. But, Sho and others believe it should be merged. Perhaps in the future if elected, I'll phase out the CoS and merge it's responsibilities to the Deputy PM.

I like this position idea because it makes it so someone actually very experienced being able to advise the PM to make great decisions.

As for making a "court justice" into Deputy PM, I am very opposed to that. We already have expressed disbelief in a judicial system and the Deputy PM should be more of an executive position, not judicial.

I am open to answering anymore questions.[/spoiler]

You said in your campaign dispatch that the deputy PM would be leading cabinet meetings, I don't know about this idea. I do understand how you think how the deputy PM should have increased responsibility and be ready for the PM role, if necessary, but I think it takes away from one of the most important jobs of the Prime Minister, as they should be the ones willing to take responsibility of all the cabinet ministers and ministries themselves. As for an arbiter position, we already have one: our very own Thalassia Founder. We also have a president, Rockiberg, who is overseeing this election, that should settle minor disputes as a impartial judge.

I will clarify, that I did not mean to insinuate that the deputy PM should be a judge, as that would be a clear bias. Instead, I meant to say that the deputy PM should be a person with experience with disputes, and should be a person of reasonable conduct and intelligence, comparable to the Prime Minsiter they are serving under. So, I oppose the CoS idea and the arbiter idea under the current templete, but they could, however, perhaps be modified to a minister position, like Deputy PM, at least for your proposed Chief of Staff.

I'd like to discuss this more, and other things, so please feel free to respond or jump in on this.

Hey, I know this was probably on accident, but please try not to double post. Thanks!

A research ministry is interesting, but most likely under my term information will be collecting reports on ministry progress every couple of weeks. It'll likely be the responsibility of the minister to make sure the person for the job will remain impartial and I have a few people in mind who will do a great in that task.

Is it a triple post if you post the double post that was posted 2 time so that you posted 3 times in the posting world?

this is a joke plz no hit me

Anacocapitalismo

Badivermeraed As I said before, I never mentioned anything regarding an arbiter in my campaign dispatch. I don’t like the fact that you keep saying I will. If you read my dispatch, I never mentioned doing such areas. All I said in my previous answer is that I personally think an arbiter is a nice idea. But just because it’s my personal idea, doesn’t mean I’ll create he position during my term. There’s a difference between personally supporting it and knowing what actually would be beneficial to he region.

I already said Cormac made a great point for why we don’t need a Court. I don’t why you are continuing to use the fact that I personally support it against me.

But anyways, I don’t want to have another rough argument. I’m open to what you want as my constituent. All I’m saying is that I never promised making the arbiter position. Feel free to ask anymore questions, though! :D

A double post is when you send two messages without someone sending a message in between. A triple post is just three posts instead of two.
