Ike you'd have been gone too had I remembered your name.
For what? It seems you banned people over the most trivial reasons. Reminds me of someone.
-
Llamas has been sent al-packing (alpaca geddit?).
I'll get me coat.....
For what reason? I come back from a vacation to find this madness.
-
Just do it in the woods or something, maybe a basement.
Btw do babies count when you say small mammals? D:
Let's do it on the road.

You are wrong, you can't go insult our region all over NSverse and expect hugs and kisses for your actions.
I don't see anything wrong in pointing out problems that need solutions.
-
Unfortunately, it means little in NS terms. Max has repeatedly noted that offsite forums are not recognized by the game. Thus offsite forum dustruction is our own responsibility to address.
Wasn't forum destruction one of the reasons Frak went DOS? I mean, not the one that tipped the balance, but I've heard it was a factor.

Why am I not surprised you support him Ike. You, like him, came here on Milograd's heels with the same intention to impose your failed vision for Lazarus upon our community.
Please, the whole revolution thing was abandoned a long time ago, I've been here because I've had nowhere else to go. And even now, my main is still in Lazarus.
The problem with you people is that you're completely unwilling to accept any change because you stubbornly think that what you're doing is completely righteous and flawless. You're not willing to give anything else a shot because what you're doing now apparently works. But if you really look at it, other solutions have worked as well. TNP and TEP are both stable democracies completely unlike TWP that are more active, prominent and to be honest, at this point more fun.
If you want to watch activity waste away as all your new players leave, go ahead. You people are too stubborn for your own good. I, for one, will be trying to change things for the better, and my efforts are just as legitimate as yours. You're not right because you're old.

... TWP is possibly one of the safest regions in all aspects thanks to its peculiar and unique - and correct - approach to in-game vs off-site separation.
And that is where your argument falls apart.

He knows them my friend: he approved and help wrote the law that dictates it. He is just trying - for the 4th time in less than 3 weeks - to put himself over the law. Why, is something I can but wonder
Oh my god, dude. You're trying to demonize him over a minor mishap that makes no difference? He was being a gentleman, and now you're trying to portray him as some reckless danger that breaks all the laws.
I don't get it man. I'm willing to cool things down but then I stumble upon you negatively portraying the region you are supposed to be trying to help improve?

I personally don't understand you at this point, fellow. :/
"Dark, banject him because he's criticizing us. Look at how he says there are problems. How dare he tries to fix them! Surely anyone who wants to change anything is completely incapable of maintaining a leadership position, we need someone who will completely preserve the status quo!"
You don't go into politics to keep things as they are. Your goal as a politician is to change things for the better. If there are problems, what's wrong with pointing them out? And you're pledging to ban someone for criticizing a resident while you simply brush off Elegarth's constant attacks over the most trivial issues?
I think it's good that Llamas will call out ,,,,,, when he sees it, and there's no reason to censor his words or take any action against him for speaking his mind. He's a reformer, he wants to fix problems, not create new ones. So don't make it so that these problems persist. You people just need to have an open mind.

Funny how decorum would ask you to censor your words, sir.

Community. That's what it's all about.
When Stujenske took over Lazarus, he didn't only destroy the PRL, but all the culture and community that went with it. It doesn't simply boil down to game mechanics and the mere changing of the WFE to look different, it's about how Lazarus' vibrant, active community was completely destroyed, and those left exiled.
-
The culture of Lazarus was ranked the highest of any GCR in TRT's issue on the subject last year. Llamas and I can certainly testify that our theme of propaganda and Communism was extremely fun while it lasted, and the region definitely benefited from the amazing amounts of culture we had. Well, depending on how you define culture.
Milograd has won a cultural victory!
I do not believe we should cooperate with Stujenske's government based purely on formality, policy and precedent. Recognizing the Delegate of a region as legitimate no matter what ignores the opinions of natives, your allies and disregards the R/D game, as regions are raided all the time. Legitimacy doesn't belong in NS, as there is no formal system for legitimacy that applies to regions, only ones that rulers of those regions make, ones that only last as long as they're in power. In a way, you could argue that any Delegate of a region is legitimate, but that would go against everything else that matters, and as such, we shouldn't be talking about legitimacy here. We should be talking about popularity, effectiveness and other desirable traits. The Lazarus that Stujenske has ushered in is that of NPO puppetry, you can almost consider it a raid. He got rid of all the longtime natives that populated the region and completely destroyed his international reputation. Lazarus, for a long time, has been not only a GCR, but a community. One made up of people like Funkadelia, Hobbes, Church of Satan, and even me for a while, and I do hope to rejoin one day. Stujenske destroyed all that progress with the NLO. The community of Lazarus is gone, kicked from their homes. Their culture has been knocked down, the same culture that was widely-renowned as the best in the world.
We shouldn't be bringing this down to simple game mechanics. We should be bringing it down to morality, justice and common sense.

TWP's stance (not mine) has been that you kind of had it coming if you included forum powers with regional powers. While I disagree, I think even people who stick to that ideology shouldn't resort to technicalities. Stujenske has gone rogue, and it's just to maintain relations with the popular, native government- TWP is arguably the most neutral of the GCRs, but we should listen to common sense and support the native and popular alternative to Stu's coup.

How can it be illegal to visit a website? This isn't China.

Registering my TWP nation.
-
Damn it, I don't come on these forums nearly as often as I should. A tragic and unfortunately expected end.
-
You didn't signed in with that nation, my friend, and we can't possibly be omniscient. Did you signed with it at any moment?
Did I signed in? What?
-
I do have a nation in TWP, it is called Yupan.
-
Uh, I'm a member of the HGA but not included in the voting list. Why?
-
Done.

Nice attack ad, but Milograd was succeeded by Kazmr, and the People's Congress existed throughout those Chairmanships for us to bring democracy, especially since both of them were elected. We just tried it too late. I wouldn't pin this on Pestarzt at all, but rather on our collective failure to act before Funkadelia was in power. And to be honest we really could have gone about it more openly.
Anyway, as a Lazarene (I still consider myself one [exiled, of course]), I can't believe Stujenske did this, and I hope it ends soon. But don't use this for the purpose of digging into your opponent.
-
So... if this passes, am I still up for WA affairs?
-
It's been four days and I fear the worst. Any updates?
-
So is there an update? I'm hoping for a happy ending.

This laid back style of ruling is really getting on my nerves.
