Me too. ContComm was a pretty cool guy.
Indeed. Me, him, and Peng were discussing the first O-HOPE Conference. Which reminds me, Peng, are we still doing that, or should we put it on hold due to ContComm's absence?
If you ever run into Frieda, tell her that I and the other Sudrian engines said 'hi'. Frieda's a German engine that we meet at the Great Railway Show.

In your page, your statement "We have many times in our over three year history" appears to be missing a verb. We've what?
Probably "move".

I'm confused. I made a decision to censor video games based on female objectification, but my primitiveness goes up by 5.5%? Shouldn't primitiveness go down, since I'm reducing misogyny, and misogyny is primitive?
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Magnatronia
You're denying freedom of expression under the pretence of objectification.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona, Percyton
While that is a good point, you gotta remember that you're also indirectly slowing the technological advancement of the video game industry.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
im a colony of the mercantile league
Penguania And Antarctica
I guess because you're limiting video games, and video games are an example of modern technology.
Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
I suppose so. Still, I think it's worth it, and I'm sure the video game people will just make other types of games. I've heard they're already making a sequel to 'Equalia: Knights of Self-Confidence'.
Penguania And Antarctica
Very well. I disagree with your decision, but you can run your nation as you wish.
By the way, are video games popular with the engines of Percyton, or is it mainly a human thing? Because I'm not quite sure how engines could play games without fingers or hands.

Post self-deleted by Kep.
[ REPOST ]
[pre]https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=768502 - Kep 4 MoFA - A Hurrah for the People[/pre]
Hello,
My name is Kep, I go by many names, at current, my nicknames include Rawr [ [nation=short]Rardium[/nation] as used in the COL ] and Rard [ also for Rardium ], previously in my history, I have gone by at least eight names during my NS tenure. My time on NS dates back to 2013 when I discovered this game as I was searching for a simulation game and a game by the name of Cyber Nations just wasn't fitting the bill, since then, NS has became my online home and one of my favorite things to due in my freetime. As you can see, in my factbooks on [nation=short]Rardium[/nation] and [nation=short]Aegyptus_Republic[/nation], I have spent hours, maybe even days [ who knows at this point '~' ] duing NS-ish stuff for fun and sometimes for requirements. Today, I come to you as Kep and I am asking you to endorse me for your Minister of Foreign Affairs of the CoFN, a region that is growing each day and is certainly a region not to be left in the wind, as the CoFN goes, so shall many other regions. Many look up to the CoFN and I will hope to continue it if I am elected as your Minister of Foreign Affairs, I promise you I will devote my energies to simply making CoFN a better place for many to live in, the CoFN will continue to grow for ages and um.. weeks to come.
On the issue of embassies, keeping with my factbook, I say this: "I [ Kep ] will continue the fabulous works of previous MoFA's concerning moving forward on embassies, as I wish CoFN to continue on a path of somewhat-isolationism, I will be proposing a law concerning opening embassies moving forwards. Some embassies I will be interested in shutting down and/or downgrading to consulate status as some I believe would be useless for CoFN, I will push for opening embassies with The Western Isles." TWI is a growing region that competes for the spotlight with other regions, especially the well-established regions including the various Pacific's, if CoFN is to boost its prestige, working out embassies and agreements with regions like these will only reflect well on the CoFN and its people. I will be interested in adding five-to-six new embassies during my tenure in hopes of boosting CoFN in the regional opinions of NS, CoFN stands at a crossroads at this time.
Next up, my foreign policies shape up as the following according to my factbook and personal opinion: "I will be an ardent supporter of recruitment as that is what drives members and continually has proven to be a way to bring in quality roleplayers to any region, not just the CoFN. The CoFN functions as a tight unit, while I understand the CoFN is perhaps weary of newcomers, it is important to embrace new members to this region, I will work on finding new members for this region to grow and would set monthly quotas for the Ministry to fill concerning new members." Included, I will push to establish an Under-Ministry of Recruitment, that will only further my goal for plans to grow the CoFN, the region has untapped wealth mired in its depths that have yet to be discovered, CoFN will continue to embrace its current members however, as that is what brought the CoFN to fruition.
All in all, I hope that you choose "A Hurrah for the People" and vote the Kep 4 MoFA ticket.

You would think so, but my Science and Technology Ministry has been working with the University of Sodor to test out robotic arms for the engines; you attach them to their buffers, and they can operate it with their mind, just like a human would use a prosthetic limb. So far only Toby, Luke, and Mavis are allowed to use them, but they're enjoying it so far; when they're about to go to sleep or have the day off, they'll put on their robot arms and play video games.

I thank you for your vote Kep! I wish good luck to all who are running for office!
Jaslandia, Vista Major, Kep, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona
Don't to hard on yourself; it's not over yet. And even if you do lose, this is just your first election, and you can always try again. If it makes you feel better, I ran for President three times and lost all three times, but I'm not going to let that deter me.
Interesting. What kind of games do they play?
Penguania And Antarctica, Minnesota Dakota, Yukona, Percyton
I mean, I'd assume that since objectification is entirely subjective that it's more of an issue with censoring opposing ideas...which is kinda primitive too.
Penguania And Antarctica
it makes me sad that you found the time to post this but not to answer my question
Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
Every time you make big posts like this and stick a stupid 'notified people' spoiler at the bottom you're guaranteeing that those people will not vote for you.
And you absolutely deserve it.

Yes, I want to have that Fluffy Hair as governmental official.

Why in the world would IRL geographic proximity matter? That's a bizarre policy
S'probably met him in RL.
Could probably also beat him up if he went nutzo.
What? Yes of course that's the implication. Still doesn't explain why he would be a better candidate
Because I know Oel. As I said, I have never spoken to Kumania.
"I endorse this candidate because I know him very well and trust his abilities."
"What does knowing someone have to do with anything?"
"As I said, I know this candidate and trust him, I have never spoken to and don't know the other."
"What does knowing someone have to do with anything?"

Post self-deleted by Oelesa.
You cannot be serious. This is a blatant rewrite of your above statements.
You didnt say "know and trust." You said "know and live close by."
know =/= trust. I know lots of people I distrust.
So that's what the song is called? I like it, but it gets tiring after having to hear every time you start up a Civ 6 game. I know this would be a lot more work (since I believe that song was performed by a full choir/orchestra), but it would be nice if Civ games had multiple themes, and you randomly got one of those themes when you started up.
https://youtu.be/0HDdjwpPM3Y
Penguania And Antarctica
Cool.
You understand his point, so there isn't a real conflict,
Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
Why would I endorse someone I don't trust?
Maybe because knowing them in person is more important to you than actual ability? That's kind of how your original statement came off
I mean, not really to me?
Like, if he didn't trust Oel at all, then I don't really see why he'd care more about having met him.

Because from what I've observed, both candidates tend to rely more on bluster & invective, rather than reason & rhetoric, to communicate.
I'm Mr. Meeseeks, Look at me! [/quote]
Penguania And Antarctica
I...don't believe you can really fault then on communication, considering that you refused to answer some simple questions last time you used your power :/
Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona
I said I have perceived they mostly communicate using bluster & invective, rather than rhetoric & reason. In the instance you are referring to, I chose not to communicate with the public, rather than rely on either bluster or rhetoric. There's a difference.
A technical one, yes.
For the purposes of this discussion though, you're stating that they gave no real information on why to vote for them (Lack of communication).
My point is that it's pretty hypocritical when you -as you just said- did not communicate with people after kicking someone out, relying instead on non-answers.
I was not referring to their campaigns. I was referring to their general communication styles.
I robustly disagree with your assessment. These are two different things: style and quantity. I am not making about about the quantity of communication, because I don't care about that. I am making a point about the style of communication, which I do care about (whatever the quantity).
Regardless, if you disagree with or don't understand my official actions and policies, then I urge you to bring your concerns to the legislature. I know you said you would prefer to let my term expire, but if my actions irk you this much, then I think you are hypocritical for not taking steps to formally censure me.

Well, unless we actually go by the smallest differences, they are actually quite one and the same.
Functionally, there isn't much of a difference between saying five things unrelated to a subject and refusing to speak on the suject. Which is exactly why I'm saying that you criticising them for their "style" of arguement is hypocritical considering your own involved redirecting towards legal means of removing you. This is, naturally, not a discussion.
And again, you redirect to a legal means, when the MoJ should be capable of having a single debate without pointing towards the law to remove them. I don't believe official action is warrented, but pointing out the fact that your own style of debate is -if anything- slightly worse than what I've seen of theirs is quite OK.
Honestly, if anything they actually did communicate with Voters, criticising your choice to remove United Kingdoms without a visable warning, they might not have campaigned, but that seems to have not been needed regrettably.
lol you are so desperate to be right all the time. Its exhausting.
Translation: Get off your butt, stop whining, and do something about it
Right, because discussion shouldn't be what people do, it should immediately be legislation.
Great choice, right there
