Region: The Region That Has No Big Banks
Yeah have fun building positive influence in one of those regions
Socialistic Britain, Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia
This Is nice
Socialistic Britain, Vordoslavia, Mjau
Is it not possible to do both those things at once?
Socialistic Britain, Vordoslavia
We build a positive influence here in The Region That Has No Big Banks to counterbalance the hatred and bigotry of certain regions.
Attacking negative influence is inherently bad because attacking anything is inherently bad.
Vordoslavia, Western Arba Fir
Counterbalance
Thats not bringing so called positivity
Thats just keeping this region good, and letting bigotry flourish in the other regions
Not preventing the problem at all.
Socialistic Britain, Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia
Attacking others doesn't solve the problem, spreading love does.
Vordoslavia, Western Arba Fir
ayo that's sus
Vordoslavia
Gosh you are hilarious!
Spreading love is just keeping it to this side of NS, with InterLeft and TRTHNBB
Attacking others solves the problem of getting scattering them away, spreading so called love by force and allowing us to actually spread our message to the remaining people
If we just become hippies, theyre gonna laugh at us
And we aint gonna go nowhere with that
Yodle, Socialistic Britain, Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia, Western Arba Fir
Sus is 2 years old
Vordoslavia, Western Arba Fir
Oh wow Mjau, I didnt know that youre a hippie
Jk jk
Socialistic Britain, Vordoslavia
yeah

Along with that, this proposed doctrine would actively stymie what Gine Caruttiva is trying to achieve with the MoD.
(Less liberation efforts ≈ Less effective MoD)
(Not that I agree with Lemona entirely in regards to this, but still)
Socialistic Britain, Consuela De La Morrela, Gine Caruttiva, Vordoslavia
I have fun organization to spread love actually. I call it the League of Nations. Itll keep peace all around NationStates!
Socialistic Britain, Vordoslavia
I wouldn't attack someone for being a bigot in real life, so the same applies in NationStates.
Vordoslavia, Western Arba Fir
I wouldnt attack someone in real life either
But so what? This is NS
This is a game
I cant count the amount of times Ive thrown out my values in a game
Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia
NS is more of a social media if anything (RMB, forums, and whatnot)
Socialistic Britain, Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia
Well morals dont count there either
Socialistic Britain, Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia
Why don't morals count online? It's still other people.

TRTHNBB has an anti-war streak, this is beautiful
Socialistic Britain, Vordoslavia, Mjau
I feel like Im going insane
I read TRTHNBB three times as TPTHNBB
Socialistic Britain, Vordoslavia
I believe you should be extra careful to be moral online, since communicating with text can be dehumanizing.
Yodle, Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia

To clarify, Im sympathetic to all viewpoints, because I feel like Ive experienced each at some point in the last 8 years. I love to see diversity of thought
Socialistic Britain, Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia, Mjau
My hands have had a workout today!
Keep the RMB activity going!
And my power went out a few hour ago, but all better now!
Yodle, Mjau
Glad to hear you have it back!

Im sorry to hear that Vordo :( All things are temporary in life. Its very difficult to see in the present moment, but it will pass and youll be able to go back to normal. Once this is over, everything will be a passing thought and youll be in a better position with this behind you. Just gotta manage your way through it and try to make the best of the situation.
Im glad were able to host a community that can occupy your time in an engaging manner. Things will get better, they always do
Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia, Mjau, Achrom

the only thing is that our director isnt gonna be there so it's just the 8 of us winging it lol
we have a clarinet, 2 tenor saxes (im one), a trombone, a tuba, and 3 trumpets, so i think we're good

hol up a minute
Brocklandia what the hell are you doing here dont you have a bar to run
Brocklandia, Youtube Inc, New United Common-Lands, Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia
My notifications said I had 17 new messages on the board after checking it 2 minutes before that.
There were no new messages and it sent me to some 3 day old ones
Brocklandia, Socialistic Britain, Vordoslavia, Mjau
Time can be tricky like that. If you don't have the messages, then obviously they just haven't been sent yet and the notification arrived first.
The other option is that the messages are hiding from you. Have you checked behind the sofa?
Youtube Inc, New United Common-Lands, Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia, Vladyslak, Achrom
Don't worry--the Bar is in good hands ... or tentacles, or maybe flippers, or something.
Youtube Inc, New United Common-Lands, Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia, Vladyslak
We actually had to get the sofa repossessed. There were rats living in it.
Brocklandia, Ratfink, Youtube Inc, Socialistic Britain, Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia, Mjau
What, no bagpipes? No fart cushions? I'm gonna pass on a wind section without bagpipes and fart cushions.
Youtube Inc, Socialistic Britain, Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia, Vladyslak
Good thinking. Rats have been known to carry Yersinia pestis without symptoms, and no one expects the Black Plague! It's chief symptom is fear ... surprise and fear. It's two--two chief symptoms are surprise and fear ... and festering black sores ...

Is that like being a bullhorn or a public address system? Ooo!--Maybe it can be like one of those storm warning sirens? Sounds noisy, but I bet I can still sleep through it.
Youtube Inc, Vordoslavia, Mjau
Well, this is terrible news. I should have paid better attention in health class...
Brocklandia, Youtube Inc, Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia
Just to clarify, the reason for updating the bill is helping to recognise that R/D isnt black and white. This gives us slightly more scope to do stuff, but as Commissar General, this would be tightly guarded if ever we did help to deal with a region under Oppressive Rule as defined in the bill
Socialistic Britain, Vordoslavia, Krayo29
Welcome :), its nice to see you here!

What does 5. Prevent motions to expand gatekeeping and elitism within Parliament or take power away from the people. mean? The Kaverian
America The Greater, Vordoslavia
I just mean to prevent motions that would make Parliament not a forum for citizens to make change, such as extraneous requirements or rules to join and maintain membership and the like.
America The Greater, Socialistic Britain, Vordoslavia, Mjau, Western Arba Fir
Socialistic Britain, Lemona, Vordoslavia, The Kaverian, Mjau
Huh
That last proposal a sound like Mine but with diferent words
Vordoslavia
By prevent I mean encourage other ways of enhancing parliament (and taking action as an MP, and not as Speaker)
Yodle, America The Greater, Vordoslavia
I got that idea from Flomonga
Yodle, Vordoslavia, Western Arba Fir
Oh good
It seems like something happened over there what did you do
Yodle, Vordoslavia
Update on this, I've figured out how to make forum channels and have got one setup for debates
Interesting to see how much use people will make out of it
America The Greater, Socialistic Britain, Vordoslavia, Mjau, Western Arba Fir, The Orangutan Nation
um I would like to endorse you even though I am running as long as you will try to make it easier for regular members or the average members to try and help with events and other stuff Ty!!!
Vordoslavia, Mjau, Western Arba Fir
I trust The Kaverian with this, he's the right choice if you want a candidate who's dedicated to making sure everyone can be involved.
Vordoslavia, Mjau, Western Arba Fir, The Orangutan Nation
People really need to read the WA proposals before voting.
Socialistic Britain, Vordoslavia, Krayo29, Mjau, Western Arba Fir
true but I also like to keep in mind others opinions
Brocklandia, Vordoslavia, Vladyslak
thank you for this information I will keep this in mind when im voting ty!!!
America The Greater, Vordoslavia, Vladyslak
But there are a lot of people in the WA who just vote for the majority vote and don't actually read the proposal.
Brocklandia, Vordoslavia, Western Arba Fir, The Orangutan Nation
maybe its because the GA is useless
Like the SC does actually function but no one follows the GA
Brocklandia, Socialistic Britain, Vordoslavia, Mjau, The Orangutan Nation
real
I kinda just vote based on what Yodle votes, so if I am not doing something right push your complaints to him please!
Brocklandia, Western Arba Fir, The Orangutan Nation
An alternative would be to vote against every GA proposal except the repeals. I know a few delegates that vote that way, based on the idea that most of the GA proposals that pass will just be repealed eventually, so why not try to prevent them from passing in the first place. If "No Big Banks" also means "No Big Governments," that might be a workable strategy.
Socialistic Britain, Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia, Western Arba Fir, The Orangutan Nation
true, nothing else to add just true.
Vordoslavia
A neutral speaker can wield a lot of authority over what comes up for a vote by using the rules around what is and isn't considered to have met the "appropriate criteria." True neutrality is difficult--you are, after all, electing your speakers and other officers based on their platforms and stances on certain issues, and everyone brings their individual perspectives to the issues, so already positional bias may be involved. But since the rules used to determine what does or does not meet the criteria for being voted upon are often vague, cryptic, and/or contradictory, even a seemingly neutral speaker has a lot of ability to shape the discourse or voting agenda if those biases affect how the speaker moves issues forward for a vote or sidelines them.
[sub]My two cents. Not sure what the local exchange rate is.[/sub]

Maybe you are interested in reading my proposal
America The Greater, Vordoslavia
My proposal is based on making all citizens have more power in parliament, and being stricter regarding discrimination, and making the region more comfortable for everyone
America The Greater, Vordoslavia, Vladyslak, The Orangutan Nation
I will admit, having Brocklandia around gives this place an enhanced flavor
America The Greater, Partisan Italy, Socialistic Britain, New United Common-Lands, Consuela De La Morrela, Vordoslavia
I'm definitely a fan of your proposal too, and think you have a lot of the right ideas. My only concern is that you aren't a member of Parliament, so you don't really have experience with our system at the moment.
Vordoslavia
The Cascadia Commune, the second founding member of the Hylmbjae Pact has recently become defunct and obsolete, leaving the Hylmbjae Pact with only one member state, rendering it useless. Some clauses of the Pact has been altered to allow more nations to join the Pact. If you are interested, please read through the sections of the Pact, and if you wish apply, telegram Western Isles Of Denmark for an application request. If your application is rejected due to an error that means you do not stand within all of the clauses of the Pact, you will be notified which clause this is.

This Ultimatum will reach u soon
We are worried that your antics will make the Suez Canal unusable, and your country is getting a bit... unstable.
So, we send this in hope that you read it and acknowledge it.
Here are our conditions:

2. Give Libya to Lemona
Or otherwise I will wage an invasion and a colonial intervention on u
