  1. I will always respect the Delegate's will, I'm just saying we should not pretend we are being fully open to the options. I'm ok with whatever result
  2. 57 replies during a 5 day discussion between about 9 players is not "a discussion at lenght" nor a "most people" You have the right to do this, lets just not pretend it is a public driven thing when it isn't. I am all for making clear what is clear. You are merely taking the opinion of a few in something you already decided to go with, but there isn't any real option. Let's not fool ourselves. I do wonder, if you are so sure "most people" supports this, why didnt you take it to an in game poll, make it official, and add the no change option That would have been the fire test to your supposed massive support.
  3. If you are going to do this by vote, why not add the option to REMAIN as we ARE? Would that be something you will be willing to do? Seems fair to me...
  4. I must say this echoes what I mostly feel about it. I don't like gimmicks, as they are easy to derail and harder to maintain. We already have a laid back culture which is easy to go and learn, get used to, etc. Furthermore, the themes proposes seem forced to me... Not natural or native... I'm not a fan. I also vote for tradition tbh
  5. I like it a lot Fujai. And it seems to me you used some of the concepts of what I used to have during my delegacy? Or was that accidental? If this is formally adopted by TWP, let me know so I can edit the current Dispatch with the list of Delegates to show proper branding.
  6. Wouldn't the newspaper (written media) better be run on an actual written environment like the forum? I'll reach out later.
  7. If not, do we want one? I'd like to think I can help run one... but I would like to know where we are at now. I've been sort of disconnected and away for a while...
  8. So late to reply... But curiously enough I was also RL editor of a small monthly magazine we ran on the Physics School of my University from 2002 to 2008. We called it "La QuantiTica" (Quantum + Tico being the usual reference to Costa Ricans in latin america). It started as a single 8x17 sheet of paper folded in the middle, 4 pages of content, and the last one was similarly created with 16 pages. We ran articles on current research in the Uni's research centers, news from the School staff and the Students Association staff, "Envelope Physics" challenges, scientific humour and weird fringe-science histories. I edited and compiled it all in PAINT at the start, as I had no other tools back then! I didn't even had a computer, did it all in Internet Cafes. I loved it... I think I should have been journalist...
  9. Just for the record... During my tenure we USED a standard format for all regional dispatches, which was coproduced by Drachmaland and myself: I actually used it for the official dispatches (and just recently re-used it): https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1022734 https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=607754 https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=536247 I'm not saying you should use this one, but it has been done before, you can leverage that one or start one from scratch. But I agree with the idea of a common theme.
  10. I just clicked on STAFF for fun, and I realized MALVIET is still a moderator and masked as MInister. Is this correct at any rate?
  11. This reminda me my time as Editor of the PNN in another realm
  12. Would you had accepted emperorship of NPO had it been offered to you?
  13. You are always the sweetest, aren't you? <3
  14. I'm surprised this topic has lasted so many years...
  15. I can't believe he is back to trying...

    NS reminisces

    It's been a while, hasn't it Eli?
  17. That could help. THat perhaps would allow people to know you.
  18. You've not mastered snark here, there or anywhere. You just come up as crude, disrespectful, offensive and tooooo much of an ass.
  19. How's life, Winni? Haven't heard from you in a while. Greetings!
