Intelligent Holograms

We were still here and thanks for the update.

Are people still working on NSR or has it been completely discarded?

Which system?

It irritates me, as well, that the most important thing to the region (according to the WFE) is the promotion of this jolly club of guardians.

I assumed that the lack of activity and content was due to the new nature of the forums, although that clearly isn't the case. It's a shame that the last forums were abandoned due to lack of activity only for the new one to succumb to the same fate. I think that it was a mistake to allow PD and co. to destroy the RA and other legislative parts of TWP, these are the sorts of functions that draw new activity and players to offsite forums. It is this destruction (and the nature of having "guardians" running the show) that I believe to have killed these forums and forum culture in TWP.

More information on telegrams has been released on the subject of the now ever-changing game rules in relation to telegrams. The basic message is: Spamsday is coming, run for your lives!

The NationStates Republic... A noble idea for sure, but one wonders whether more planning should have gone in before it was created (the establishment of an actual aim of the Republic for instance, as it is clear that this was not established (and still hasn't been)). Where is the peck of pickled peppers that Peter Parker picked?

They look good on you.

It should be an interesting one then, with a new President and Delegate. It's all right, we'll still be here in a few days.

Probably, It [the game] doesn't seem to give me the option of deleting sent telegrams. I imagine it does it automatically.

I will compose a trial telegram that covers these aims.

Welcome, Ambassador, to our humble forums. *Leaves a gift of TWP treats including chocolate and oranges*

I wish you luck in your region, it sounds like a genuinely interesting, active and entertaining place to be a member. I may pop over for a visit at some point!

A most entertaining read. It is also interesting to learn about your political system, it being so different than ours. I am also curious, how did you gain so many members and nations? It is rare to see a region such as yours (focussing on a particular fan base in real life) do so well for themselves without resorting to puppets.

This has probably already been discussed, but the new telegram system (particularly mass TG's) could be used to great effect in stirring up activity from the region. TWP already has a large active member base, I know, but a system such as this could be used to attract people to these forums, to give out WA information and to encourage people to endorse Yy as their Delegate. A regional news letter, of sorts, to encourage new nations to participate in regional affairs.

Many thanks for the update.

-NS's first sign of academia? A throughly entertaining and informative update, thank ye. It's always good to hear what's happening on the raider/defender side of NS, we don't do a lot of that here in TWP.

He has the sight! I looked at that region and it says that the founder is still there.

It's just not something that I would consider worth buying for what I play NS for; I'm never going to send a mass telegram to another region and my days of recruiting are long gone. You think Max wrote his books with the intent that they be turned into films? Not a bad idea if you're in the business to make money, although I had no idea that he'd already had one done. I also find it strange that he's started to charge now, 10 years after the games initial inception.

Poor(both senses of the word) Max, all he did was try to make the game better and look at all the hatred he's getting! I don't think he's doing it in the right way, though, by lumping all of the paid stuff in at the same time; if he were to introduce the paid features bit by bit, we might be more tolerant. Perhaps these are just the first in a long line of paid features that he's going to role out, we shall have to wait and see.

I think I do use ad-blocker but I've no idea where it's gone; worry not though, I'll find it and reactivate the ads for NS.

But I thought he did it for the enjoyment, not the money... Joking aside, I don't know a way of leaving ads on for one website and off for the rest of the internet. If you know a way of doing that, I would be happy to implement it.

Has anyone here actually read one of his books? I was going to buy his newest one and then thought "no", before running screaming from the webpage.

Max is playing us to our doom and he's charging for it!

I, too, am very much interested in representing TWP overseas and in lands anew. Anywhere will do for me.
