RMB Recruiter Log

[Monte Ozarka]

So, yesterday, I decided to start keeping track of the recruitment messages that are posted on our RMB.

I will try to post everyday around noon PDT, and I will post the past 24 hours' worth of logs. Region names will be bolded with the actual recruiter nation in parentheses, and any rule infractions will be bolded in red. Infractions for going over the 15-line limit will be quoted here, as well. Ellipses indicate when I was away from the computer for a long period of time. As such, there may be many recruitment ads that I have missed in this log.

This is all manually done, so it's rather imperfect. There's large gaps in the day that I cannot account for, and the only real way to keep this from happening is to have multiple people doing this.

[Monte Ozarka]

Oh, and I have yet to TG any of these recruiters about any rule infractions. I figure getting on someone's case for not remembering the exact time they posted their ad yesterday and being wrong by 3 or 4 hours is kind of a douchebaggish thing to do. However, don't know what y'all think about the ads that go over the 15-line limit. None of the recruiters that broke that rule were particularly egregious about it, but it would still be nice to lay down some sort of policy regarding it.

 

[Apollo-Industria]

I let them slide up until 18 or 19.

 

[Monte Ozarka]

I let them slide up until 18 or 19.

By the way, A-I, I made a note of your warning of that Umbrella Corporation thingy in the above log.

 

[Apollo-Industria]

Yes. 20 lines. Very nasty.

TG is what you have to do to keep them honest. A polite TG is often well-received and a polite reply is often given.

TAO agrees that it appears nit-picky but many spammers test your region's resolve by such actions.

The 15-line limit you guys impose is the harder thing to deal with. The FAQ and OSRS have nothing to say about the number of lines in AdSpam. Your best action would be to push spam off the RMB quickly and regularly. And there needs to be more RA members willing to go out and get dirty.

-------------------ATTENTION ALL CAPITALISTS--------------------------
We would like to invite all capitalists (no matter what your social beliefs may be) to join Capitalist Alliance (CA) today!

Why should you join CA? Our members will help you with every aspect of the game, from learning what different options on issues will do to writing your first issue, from joining the UN to authoring your own first resolution. We are planning to grow tremendously, and to do so we are currently creating new forums, recruiting, appointing secretaries (to various jobs, such as diplomacy, security, personnel, recruiting), and writing a Constitution: your help will be needed and appreciated. In case you’re wondering, we also enjoy discussion and healthy debate, as well as an occasional joke or two. Another major advantage to joining CA is that all members of the region are automatically national members of ACCEL. If you haven’t learned about ACCEL, watch the video at the link below:

12:53 Praetorian Empire (TPE Recruiter): 23 lines

I greet you on behalf of the Praetorian Empire. The

Praetorian Empire is what you would call an Imperialistic Democracy, we believe in expanding our

power and influence throughout the world as well as our way of life. Our ideals are based off of the

beliefs of the Roman Republic that lasted a 1,000 years. We also believe in democracy as you may have

already heard, we elect a Praetor every two months. And that Praetor is like the head of state until

his term has expired. We also elect other lower officials to keep the Praetor in check. The

Praetorian Empire is also a very militaristic empire that is in the process of creating legions right

now, so if you are not into politics as much as everybody else then you could also try becoming one

of the Legion generals that commands troops into battle. But you must have experience first and are

able to climb the ranks from Legionnaire to Centurion and so on and so forth. But if none of those

fits your criteria we are also a very friendly region that just likes to sit back and talk about

things in private in our own regional forums. We also have an Imperial Senate that is based in the

forums and just votes on decisions and regional issues and conflicts.

But we are a growing region still and are in desperate need of recruits and people to step up and

become leaders of the Praetorian Empire. So please consider my proposal and contact me ASAP when you

have your answer.

Thanks,
Nation- The Republican Emperor of Sergeant General
Title/region- Founder of the Praetorian Empire

Hi everyone!
Come to Imperialist Great Britain! The region where big developments will be occurring in the next

month or two. We are planning to totally restructure our political system and make it more democratic

and efficient.

We are one of the World's unique regions; we have a Constitutional Monarch who is head of state but

holds no political powers which is better than a simple president. We are well represented on the UN

by our UN Delegate and our 10 UN members. We also hold an election every month which allows us to

consistently have a government that we want and for our 4 political parties to put forward a

candidate for Prime Minister.

Come and join us and help us create a region based on British values that really do work!!

Yours,
The Recruitment Secretary of Imperialist Great Britain.

(¯`·._.·[ --- NEW SPAIN --- ]·._.·´¯)

Saludos región del Pacífico Norte!

Nos gustaria invitarte a unirte a nuestra region: New Spain. De entre las razones por las que podrias considerar a nosotros:

-Tenemos una Constitución Regional [http://www.mundoforo.com/newspain/constitucion-de-new-spain-vt28.html]
-Somos una de las pocas regiones de NationStates donde se habla completamente español/castellano.
-Poseemos un gobierno totalmente democrático, donde cualquier nacion puede hacer una diferencia en nuestro futuro.
-Formamos parte de alianzas y confederaciones tan famosas y prestigiosas como la 'COFR'.
-Somos una de las regiones mas activas del juego. Solo hace falta observar nuestros mensajes en nuestra pagina regional.
-Poseemos un foro activo y organizado, un lugar donde los debates políticos, el Role-Play, o simples conversaciones amistosas son abundantes.

La discriminación por ideal político o tipo de nacion es desconocido aqui. Si eres un jugador nuevo a NS, una nacion experimentada, o simplemente una persona con deseo de practicar el español, seras bienvenido en New Spain. No dudes en mandarme un telegrama si tienes alguna duda/pregunta sobre la región.

Atentamente,
Ministerio de Reclutamiento de New Spain

16:46 CZW Headquarters (Ravenism): 19 lines

I know that you guys hate recruitment messages (I had a nation in the West Pacific for a while, and I don't like them either), but this is neccessary for me.

Do you like wrestling? Do you like role-playing? Is both of them combined like a paradise city on NationStates for you? Then CZW Headquarters is the place to go!

CZW Headquarters offers two brands, CZW and New Age Wrestling. They are both a work in progress (especially NAW). We are made of DEDICATED PLAYERS who have been around for some time now and know how to wrestle-role play. Don't know how? We can help you with that.

Between the brands there are wars, feuds, excellent storylines, violence, and the perfect place for all wrestling fans!

I'm sure EVERYONE has seen the redundant "How-To-Move" instructions, so I feel no need to type them. This is a one-time opportunity, as I don't plan on recruiting in the feeder regions for a little while.

Wrestling role-players, join CZW Headquarters today!

*+*+*+*+ Hi North Pacific people!! How is everyone?
I was thinking (i know, how strange is that?!!?!)
Anyways, I was thinking that this region is great and all, yeah big population, power and a great delegate but the RMB/recruiter situation is like ungood. Yep, that IS a word.

Like, there's so many nations here, how does the delegate or the other nations know you? How can you stand out on your own when there's so many other nations here?
You can hardly converse with anyone because there's CONSTANT ads from recruiters. You probably don't even read them. Or this one. .
But I'm just saying, I know a region, it's called Whatever.
Now, this region is the OPPOSITE of TNP, it's small, the regional power is. . low BUT conversations CAN BE held and ARE held!!! I know every nation there and would miss one if they were gone.

Consider it?
Thanks for reading, I know it's long and boring.. . *+*+*

The People's Republic of Vlistcity- Too many lines. Telegram sent.

Great nations hear my call,

I am Vlistcity, member of the Confederate States of Europe and I would like to invite you to join the region. Confederate States of Europe (CSE) is a new, small region looking for players from all over the globe. With new player we hope to have a democratic parliamentary system with two houses (House of Representatives and Senate), even further on we hope to have a press, University and Military. We also need members to act as ambassadors to other regions.

You’re probably wondering why you should choose us over the other nations who have telegrammed you. It’s simple. Big regions like The Lexicon and Gatesville are a bad place to go. There is no chance to get involved and you’ll probably be lost among the other members joining at the same time as you. Other smaller regions are poorly organised and boring. In Confederate States of Europe we have a balance between the two. You have the chance to form our first ever government and help shape one of Nation State’s newest regions. There is plenty to do here and we are always friendly and active. We also have a regional forum http://cse.xtpx.co.uk/.
If you want to move to CSE here’s how!

1) Click on “The World” in the left-hand bar
2) Type “Confederate States of Europe” into the “Find Region” box
3) Click on “Like What You See? Move [Your Nation] Confederate States of Europe today!”
4) and you'll be a member of Confederate States of Europe

So don’t make the wrong choice and go to a region with nothing to offer, come to CSE!

And look, he even posted an apology on the RMB.

Im srry i have broken the rule which is stated above. I didnt see it in my rush to start recruiting. I formally apologize for my mistaken and i ensure it wont happen again.

Ashamed recruiter of CSE
