Nordrlond, we need an appointed NSCNR officer to vote in the poll in Bunicken. I just got a telegram regarding a possible merge between Anticom and the NSCNR.

Is there anyone here in the region who would be willing to serve as our official representative in the Royal Senate?

Nice. Keep plugging away at it Bacon. You know how long it took The Mystical Council to start coming to life! I will be presenting a proposal in Sentagon in the coming weeks forming a military-type alliance with Star Wars Battlefront. (*ahem* Especially since TMC doesn't have a military.) We're gonna be the military moochers. Mooch off of Anticom, Star Wars Battlefront, etc..... hehehe

[National Politics]

A plane lands in the Forestavian Colony of Oakplumington. High Council Leader Smith herself had come to make a speech to the good people of Oakplumington.

"Oakplumington, I have won the Nationalist primary!"

*Cheers*

"Now the real work lays before us. My opponents do not understand the importance of the Forestavian military. Why just the other day Paul was saying everything just short of pulling Forestavia out of ANTICOM and ORCA operations."

Audience: "BOOOOOO"

"That's right. We need to win right here in Oakplumington. And I'm not just talking about the 25 delegates that are at stake here. I need as many votes as possible so that I can win the popular vote as well!"

*Cheers*

"When you run for the High Council you have to win at least four elections to make it. Well, a few hours ago, I just knocked one election out of the way!"

*Cheers*

"My voice is still needed on the High Council. I am a career politician!"

*Brief pause*

"What am I saying? Oh boy, the opposition is going to have fun with that one." *laughter from audience* "I am NOT a career politician!"

*applause*

"Now more than ever you need me. Our traditions are under assault. If you elect me, the composition of the High Council will be altered so that there will be at least six Nationalists serving for the next few years. Forestavia will remain a Theocratic Republic. And not just for us Fortruthians. I hear you have quite a Lucernist population here in Oakplumington. We are going to work on giving Lucernists more of a voice in the Monastery. That I can promise you."

It was the beginning of election season across the Forestavian empire. Katie Stevens and Ross Donald Paul were also expected to show up soon enough in this early campaign season.

I sorry everyone, I've got to let out some steam. Humor me?

The Democrats have super delegates. I didn't think you could get any more blatantly corrupt than that until this happened:

http://allnewspipeline.com/Revolution_Just_Started_In_Colorado.php

I mean wow. Really? A handful of people can decide to just not have a primary? I would burn my registration, too. You gotta feel for these people.

If Cruz has any honor at all, then he would refuse those delegates and order the state to make it a fair contest - you know the kind where voters actually show up and vote. I really like Cruz a lot. But now.... not so much. Not so squeaky clean anymore.

I hope Sanders and Trump take the nominations. This corruption has to end. We have to throw it right back in the establishment's face.

Ok, thanks for listening to my little rant, there.

OOC - We need to have a serious regional discussion. I'm concerned. Maybe it's not that big a deal. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Ok. I did a little digging into this recent deletion. Please. Please. People. Please. This is a game. The Fleeters are players just like we are. Please do not get personal with the insults and stuff. This is not real life.

Believe it or not, Misley and I fought on the same side on a mission a long time ago. The region is Anne Frank. I didn't know who Misley was back then and we didn't communicate or anything but we were both there on the same side in a mission to secure a region. In fact, most of NationStates showed up for that mission. It was really cool actually to see that kind of unity.

I don't know about you guys but it seems that this region is getting a little too close to the line recently. We saw Castlemaine and Nordrlond get deleted. Chingislan got deleted for some script violation. We even saw Misley get deleted in the form of Submarine Group V. That one spammer puppet doesn't count. I'm talking about nations that have been with us for awhile. And they are starting to get deleted.

I can't help but notice the general direction our region seems to be taking. We even have an embassy with Unmoderated which I didn't really agree with but the regional government allowed it and so it stands. The problem isn't with the freedom we have here. I know that for sure. We are a great region. We have a good collection of nations here and awesome players! But we need to find a way to play politics intensely, have fun, and respect the other players all in one sweep - that's the balance we need to achieve.

Let's say for example, The Red Fleet invades our region tonight. Ok then! Let's have fun playing the game of war and politics. Bring your WA nations over and play away. Whatever! If we lose the region that's ok we have a back-up. But there's a certain line where we can't let it escalate into insults and personal attacks. I like the Communist Vs. Capitalist theme. It's classic and we can get into it with a little bit of passion. It's an old argument: the individual vs. the collective. I'm trying not to play the founder card but my advice is this: Think before you post. Be aware of the mood on the RMB. If things start getting a little too serious or intense, then tone it down.

I respect the fleeters for being the creative players that they are. They actually took the time to write an emergency constitution to take over our region that one night. They came up with concepts and titles like the Lunar Soviet. Think about it. This is good stuff. There is no raiding organization that I know of that is as effective as the fleeters. You gotta give them credit - they're good.

I spent some time in the The United Defenders League under Unibot. At the time, lot of people didn't like us (including, I suspect, some of the mods), partly because we had really good scripts, but mostly because we took regions back from raiders regardless of who the natives were, and so other defender groups wouldn't work with us because we defended nazis. One day we were doing a revenge raid against some communist raiders. I don't remember if they were associated with the fleeters. Something went wrong and we needed to cover our tracks. I wanted to protect the others from what I believed was unfair persecution and spammed the event board to hide them. I was told that ALL my nations would be deleted without appeal if I ever did anything like that again. I had to quit defending for a while.

The only thing that really, really bothers me about the fleeters and similar groups is that they love to destroy, refound, and lock regions. It's been a very effective tactic because they are not only that good, they also have lots of players, play by the rules, and the majority of the WA is on their side emotionally. Regions are a dime a dozen. Anyone can create one. But some regions have names that the natives would really like to keep, so it hurts. As a result, it's very tempting to cheat against them, so the mods are watching the fleeters' "enemies" closely - and the fleeters keep track of nations that oppose them, watch them, and have few qualms about reporting them when they cross the line.

If we lose the region that's ok we have a back-up. But there's a certain line where we can't let it escalate into insults and personal attacks. I like the Communist Vs. Capitalist theme. It's classic and we can get into it with a little bit of passion. It's an old argument: the individual vs. the collective. I'm trying not to play the founder card but my advice is this: Think before you post. Be aware of the mood on the RMB. If things start getting a little too serious or intense, then tone it down.

I respect the fleeters for being the creative players that they are. They actually took the time to write an emergency constitution to take over our region that one night. They came up with concepts and titles like the Lunar Soviet. Think about it. This is good stuff. There is no raiding organization that I know of that is as effective as the fleeters. You gotta give them credit - they're good.[/spoiler]

Ah, no. You're absolutely right. I've never been threatened by the mods—praise be unto them—but we certainly need to tone down the malicious intent before more of us are lost to rule violations. Its imperative that we respect the effort put forth by the site moderators and administrators; they're prople, just like us.

Every subsequent raid here by TRF has been more and more thought out, and I love it. It breathes life into the decedent bowels of our region. On a more personal note, they've given me something to oppose now that my friend [nation=short]new_Pyrosky[/nation] isn't all that active anymore.

I say it's time for some fierce opposition to arise. It's time for an electric spark to sear the fringes and bring forth crisp, clean-cut experience. It's time to straighten out our act and return to our roots in freedom, liberty, and just cause.

Ok. I did a little digging into this recent deletion. Please. Please. People. Please. This is a game. The Fleeters are players just like we are. Please do not get personal with the insults and stuff. This is not real life.

Believe it or not, Misley and I fought on the same side on a mission a long time ago. The region is Anne Frank. I didn't know who Misley was back then and we didn't communicate or anything but we were both there on the same side in a mission to secure a region. In fact, most of NationStates showed up for that mission. It was really cool actually to see that kind of unity.

I don't know about you guys but it seems that this region is getting a little too close to the line recently. We saw Castlemaine and Nordrlond get deleted. Chingislan got deleted for some script violation. We even saw Misley get deleted in the form of Submarine Group V. That one spammer puppet doesn't count. I'm talking about nations that have been with us for awhile. And they are starting to get deleted.

I can't help but notice the general direction our region seems to be taking. We even have an embassy with Unmoderated which I didn't really agree with but the regional government allowed it and so it stands. The problem isn't with the freedom we have here. I know that for sure. We are a great region. We have a good collection of nations here and awesome players! But we need to find a way to play politics intensely, have fun, and respect the other players all in one sweep - that's the balance we need to achieve.

We need to have a discussion on the site rules. Because it's like every other former delegate CTE'ed. I mean I was a former delegate of this region. And I know the site rules. The mods do not play whatsoever.

Yeah, we're addressing a disturbing trend of deletions.

I'm going to start a recognition program. Basically any nation who meets certain criteria will be awarded with the "Founder's Statesman Award." (I'm thinking this up as I go.) First of all you have to exist to receive the award. So don't get deleted.

Adherence to site rules will be a factor in addition to statesman-like conduct. I'm going to roll this program out.... I have no idea when. Maybe by next month/end of summer/fallish/Christmasish? If our region passes it legislatively this could change from a Founder's Award to a Regional Award in the future as well.

I agree. The discussion is important. Here are some links that everyone can browse for reference.

Side note - The New Constitution (that I promise to finish very soon) will give emergency authority to any officer holding border authority to eject and/or ban any nation violating site rules.

That should be in the constitution. If one is in violation they should be ejected from the region. This is a serious matter.

I disagree.

Even saying "sh1t" would be a "violation"

What is even the point of nations CTE after 28-60 days. It's so stupid. Should be at least a year.

And what's more stupid, you can't refound a nation if it CTE'd for the next 5 years, and if it had become over 500mill, you can't refound it at all. So the record of the nation remains in the servers, so you can't argue that they let them CTE to save space on their server storage.

The whole CTE thing is just silly.

That's actually make way more sense than the current system.

Say, what if nations just got moved to The Rejected Realms after 28-60 days/ lose any RO positions, and then CTE after 1 year in TRR? It'd make that 5 year wait period feel a bit shorter.
