Against The resolution may be poorly written, but a condemnation for a region whose leaders were all DEAT'd should surely stay on the books. A repeal would remove precedent against similar behavior and would pose a roadblock towards future condemnation of like-minded regions. Put the needs of...

In May, the RA ratified the World Assembly Accord on Campaign Spam by a wide margin. I like the document too, but it has been inappropriately invoked by the delegate to justify his use of executive privilege on WA votes. The concern stems from his comments in the thread for this recent vote...

Very happy to see Yalkan and Darklord among the RMB Guardians. Those guys seem to have the RMB open even in their sleep, and never miss a new post. I think they're probably better known to residents than most members of the government! This should build residents' faith in the new moderation...

Congratulations on the appointment, Abbey.

Against I'm usually anti-raider, but in this case it seems like nobody can be bothered to speak up for their own region. On the forums or on the RMB, I haven't seen any former member of HR post anything more than a statement of their indifference. Seems there's nothing to liberate here.

For the love of the almighty I just told people not to do this not 12 hours ago. Consider this a formal warning to everyone. If you are not part of cartography do not make comments about people claims in this thread. Cartography is more then capable of handling situations on our own. ~LL

If I'm understanding this conversation correctly, you guys are talking about almost two separate things. Are you advocating the RMB Guardians to be people mostly active on the RMB and elected by the RMB? I like the idea and understand your thinking, but at the same time this sounds like it could...

Count me in.

I'm in. I'm still pretty new to NS but I could hammer something out on the new RP map or the recent court case surrounding the VD. I am available to edit as well.

I'd like to help out as an RMB Guardian. I have a very extensive history of moderating online forums and chat and am active ingame. I'm very liberal in moderation policies and I think there's only been two or three times I've seen something that I'd think warrants deletion. A few days back I...

Nation in The North Pacific: Rumata Ministry you are interested in joining: Gameside Affairs, Communications Previous experience in this area of government: IRL communications planning and writing experience

For Plemb has already cast his vote and in this case it seems the majority opinion, but I would like to register my vote for the resolution. From the comments in this thread, it seems opinion has been colored by last week's incident. I'm going to have to disagree and say we deserved the flak we...

I am calm. Do not send me any more PMs and do not attempt to gaslight me.

This is 10/10 trolling. Telling TNP members they should be ashamed for not replying to his posts, being as inflammatory as possible with 9/11 posts, posting only in emoticons, baiting the mods to ban him. Then backpedaling and apologizing just enough to potentially look like a crazy person we...

Great maps. I'm fleshing things out for Rumata at the moment as well, and this has made me have a think. Your physical map in particular raises interesting possibilities should I recognize what you've done here.

Against Normally I'd vote for a liberation, but...Dank Memes? If you look at the RMB, they're spamming about how happy they would be to see this liberation pass. I also can't say I have loads sympathy for the natives.

Thanks to the Election Commission for the fastidious record keeping, and congratulations to the winners for standing out in a field of strong candidates.

I answered with gaming communities in mind. The questions seemed to be based on real life politics, but in ten years of leading or moderating online communities, I find that to not really be applicable. Even in a "political" game like NS. That said, I got: Utopian Socialist Defender 54%...

He may indeed be shitposting, but Altmoras' conclusion is one that many casual observers will draw from this. Seeing as how the embassy had been allowed to stay open despite meeting the criteria for closure about a thousand years ago, I think it's safe to say that keeping it open for another...

Delegate: Bootsie Would you like to reopen nominations? No Vice Delegate: Romanoffia Would you like to reopen nominations? No Speaker: Abstain Would you like to reopen nominations? Yes

Against. Recent attempts at reform are only a first step towards repairing relations with the international community. While admirable, it hardly warrants special commendation from the Security Council.

For. Rumata has no interest in recognizing foreign patents or the entitlements they may bestow. Additionally, the original resolution seems broken even from the perspective of many who support the commodification of intellectual property.

Solve Media, the provider for CAPTCHA codes for the TNP forums now make you watch an advertisement with sound and video before showing you the code. I was nearly forced to watch a trailer for the Ben-Hur remake, but I discovered I could make it stop by clicking for an audio CAPTCHA. That said...

This is a WA proposal, not national legislation. It infringes upon the national sovereignty of member states and compels them to adopt a very narrow position on what is considered acceptable and unacceptable, with a very Eurocentric view on what constitutes fair laws in the public interest. I...

Thanks for the enthusiasm. Now I can reply to this and, if I figured it out correctly, should get a member mask which will allow me to use my avatar. Edit: That worked brilliantly. Everything is unfolding according to plan. :voldy:
