Karenus here o/ Hello, TWP!

Good riddance! Don't let the door hit you on the back in your way out.

Welcome! Cool pic, also how much chocolate does your nation have? Also, can you put up an avatar? 

Also glad to be here! I've played nation-states off and on for years and never realized how big and in-depth a following it had. 

1/2 bag 11.4 oz. M&M candy, Full bag 8 oz. White Peppermint M&M candy, 2/3 box of Chocolate Candy Cane Truffles, and 1 Packet of Nestle Real Milk Chocolate Hot Cocoa.
I have never played before nor even heard of NationStates until 2 days ago when I started.
I do indeed play D&D and have Discord already for Civ games and World of Tanks Clan Wars and stuff like that.

This is amazing news

Hello gang. I have returned. My main nation of QuietDad has returned to TWP, bringing a truckload of Chocolate to keep Darkesia distracted. It's good to be home

To be absolutely honest, I meant to do so ever since I created my NS nation in order to be an active member on all fronts but joining TWPAF is what really convinced me.

Good day/evening, fellow West Pacificans! I am the leader of Casedia, a few of you might have seen some of my posts in the RMB. I am here to interact with people (and also join TWPAF). My interests include good food, good music and good revolution. I'm glad to be here!

Hi, hello... Name is Elegarth and I'm a n00b... or something xD

Nathan Potter-Stykes steps up the podium, adoring fans screaming his name. He removes his glasses, and soaks in the applause.

whAT FRESH HELL iS THIS 

the US residents that inhabit general on the NS forums are for the most part extremists at either end of the political polarity that should all have been breast fed and not shoved off on cereal at 4 days of age.

You aren't the 5,355th most beautiful nation in the world, you're the first remember. The WA is all corrupt and rich nations give bribes to make their nations appear higher than my nations. That might not be 100% true. Badger didn't reply quick enough to let me shrink it.

Does anyone else think that General could do to be split up into General/US and General/Rest of the World? Because I have been going in there on and off, and there is one thread for the whole of UK politics, and the one or two times I have tried to start another thread, it either gets merged into the UK politics one or just ignored (maybe because no one cares which is fair enough) or because it gets swamped by all the American stuff. 
Meanwhile American politics covers 20, 30 threads with several topics getting two or three threads least. And when I try to contribute then most of them time I am either told that I don't understand (because I am not American), that the UK doesn't understand (because it isn't free, isn't democratic or just has too much tea) or just ignored (for both of the previous two reasons or another equally facile one). And I know it sounds like I am whining because I am not getting to play with the other kids, and that is not my point I swear - it's just that in the end I am going to stop going to the general forum because - quite honestly - there is very little in there to interest me. 
So - to get back to my first paragraph - I take it there is little or no chance of the Admins considering something like that? To move all the specifically American political topics into a sub-forum and the other political topics into a different sub-forum and then put all the other stuff (squirrels vs llamas for example) into an actual general forum? Because that might be fun and would at least make it more readable and might provoke more discussion about subjects other than Trump, Clinton and other such Americana.
(No offence intended to any Americans here - I am just commenting!)

I suppose this is required, but honestly I'm only guessing...
Greetings, I am Iron Harbinger the Fateless of the Empire of Ambre-Lapin, you may refer to me as "your highness," "your majesty," "your next-to-godliness," or Ben. Whichever works for you, we're not communists.
We at Ambre-Lapin pride ourselves on being Liberal, Democratic, and as gay as possible, because nothing in life is better than the freedom to love and be happy, especially where dicks are involved. My personal opinion is that dicks are the best thing since sliced gluten free bread, but in the spirit of our inclusive nation, I have not mandated getting dick twice a day. Yet. 
Of course, we are very inclusive of every personal identity in our great nation, which is why we prioritize Welfare, Education, and our beautiful Environment that anyone should be able to enjoy. We are the 5,355th most beautiful nation in the world, and we're proud of it!
Woman, Man, Agender, or Genderfluid, young, old, or in-between, Ambre-Lapin will strive to uphold the values we hold dear, that you hold dear, so our empire will reach around the globe in a great big hug that everyone can enjoy. Even if you're not a hugger. Which is fine too. 

Hey all, I'm new, my country is Pathate. 

It is kind of odd to look down and see you have 30 Billion citizens in that nation you founded over a decade ago, but there it is.

So happy 30th Billion Citizens Day everyone, may it be a day of reading a book, cooking on a fire, or binging entertainment content.

And here's a drink raised to friends past and present

Hello my nation is The Holy Empire of New Lucis, or the HENL for short, and I look forward to working with you all.

Badger told me to poke my head in sometime and I think Yuno drafted me so here I am. Hail TWP! 

I like it. Actually, I love it.

One of the things I would like to do is get an authorship for a WA proposal and as my "expertise" does lie in the SC and as I think it's about time the publicity The Invaders have been seeking paid off here's a slightly salty draft.
Comments etc welcome.

Well - I told my wife about my new initiative, and two things came from it :-
First, I am sleeping on the couch tonight, because telling your wife that you were SO BORED by the opera she took you to that your mind wandered into creating an entirely new governmental initiative is really not a good idea. Turns out she takes it badly. 
And secondly she pointed out that most of this information would be picked up by the Calladan immigration department -- when someone immigrates to Calladan from any other country, they would run a background check that would pretty much follow the MACE protocols and if the person requesting permission to immigrate was a bad enough criminal, then we would not grant it. And even if they were granted permission to immigrate, then ORC would still retain ALL of the information gathered during the immigration process - including all of the criminal records that this person has. 
She also pointed out that it would be more or less safe to assume that most other countries would have similar immigration processes, and so would have similar record gathering processes. 
Which would render this ENTIRE proposal somewhat pointless and useless. 
So - unless anyone can see a flaw in my wife's logic (and is willing to point it out to her - I already have one night on the couch and I am not getting another!) I think that my entire plan to carry this proposal forward is pretty much dead in the water.
