Attention Denizens of NationStates!

[Feuer Ritter]

Love your pop psychology, Fire Knight.

So hem, are you and Nephir working together in the same region, while being diffrent people? That of course, after saying in your telegram that you would show your true region and identity?
Can you explain this then: http://i1296.photobucket.com/albums/ag14/bobmoran/Realnation_zps2b931137.png

Jackpot

[Acitcratna]

Hmmmmm.....software here at work is blocking access to personal storage. They must be trying to keep us off porn sites.

If you don't mind, I'll check that out later and get back with you. Evidently it has you all in a tizz.

Hehe, joining WA from work while the other one is from your home, cheating eh?

[Acitcratna]

Ah c'mon FR, the only cheating going on here is I'm playing this silly game on company time and getting paid for it. How many of you are getting paid for playing NS?? Let's see a show of hands......

Avoid, distract and evade maneuver, nope, try again

[Acitcratna]

Nope, just sittin here chatting with you and the rest of the infidels.

[Nephmir]

Enough.

File a mod report if you think I'm a mere puppet. I'm already in the WA.

[Kyuji]

Are puppets illegal?

[Acitcratna]

Puppets in the WA from the same person are illegal. But some people get away with it...ask Herr Ritter.

Eh I figured as much .

baseless accusations you make. Not uncommon for someone flip flopping all the time. Muti Wa nations are illegal, which is surely why you and Nephir arent in the WA at the same time, and why for some WEIRD reasons you cant join the wa right now!

[Kyuji]

Just to explain to the people watching this at home.
Most nations on here rp , go to threads to discuss things , and play forum games , in other words most people are playing the game.
These people use puppets , defend and raid regions , and play head games , in other words they are not playing the game , they are playing the game one layer above the game ,they are gaming the players , they are playing the meta game.

Well Sparky, if I could get on my home email from work I certainly would. I'd LOVE to slap you in the face and prove you wrong. But until this place gets wireless and I can use my phone, I guess I'm screwed.

Meta game. That's deep, man. I like it. I like it a lot!

Then shall call it that ?

[Acitcratna]

Meta game sounds cool to me.

[Acitcratna]

OK lads & lassies, time to punch out of this place and go home. I appreciate your attention and all the love I've received this afternoon.

Feuer Ritter...don't like your region but I love ya, man. You've been a hoot. I might let you date my little sister.

To the rest of you, peace.

[Darkesia]

Kandarin used to tell me that the Feeder (GCR) game was a "meta game" and not what most people played in NS. He would spend hours explaining it to me and I never understood. If he meant what Kyuji said, I finally get it. And... Yay! That is pretty well descriptive of what drove all GCR and R/D play for years and is what is meant by "Feeder Politics"

Inter-regional Meta Game sounds so delisciously sinister. I want one.

[Province of Haddam]

I have to say this all very interesting. World domination and "cleansing" aside this is really all just a slightly innovative way to start a fight. Go You.....

So the game is the thing itself , and the metagame is the way players play the game?

[Flippica]

I'm curious. If you and Acitcratna aren't the same person, Nephmir, then how did you hear about Epigamia?

(For those of you who are curious, Nephmir sent a mass telegram to everyone in my region, essentially an unprovoked threat demanding "surrender". Speaking for the others, I laughed him off. He said that he contacted us because we were THE "most corrupt" invader region... and then attempted to force us into an alliance (essentially servitude). After taking some further ridiculing, he decided that we "weren't worth it".)

[Sedgistan]

Locking this train-wreak of a thread.

Yeah yeah yeah. Look Skippy, I am who I say I am. You are obviously cofused and off your medication.

Flamebaiting.

Threatening violence.

Oh, and the mods and/or admins are welcome to check as well. My ISP is in Indianapolis, Indiana USA if that helps any.

Mods and admins don't generally comment on puppet ownership - but when the player themself asks us to, and is flat-out lying as well as breaking the rules - we're going to call you out. So for some public disclosure, it looks like Acitcratna and Nemphir were owned by the same player, but that the former has been temporarily handed off to another player for this ridiculous charade.

I'm handing out a *** 1 day ban *** for the rules violations quoted above, and you can consider that to apply to the both of you that were involved. If either of you post past ban, all the nations involved will be deleted.
