Most of GP cares....They have been a consistent monkey on the back of us all.

I wish the new government the best of luck however keep in mind if it falls apart I will have no issues picking up the pieces and bringing them home with me.

Please don't use my and UP's flag and OP design, you don't have permission to do that.

And to everyone, I was going to resign anyway... I just didn't want to leave Anders by himself to govern the region. Turns out he was okay with that in the end. :p

That doesn't mean that I'm not disappointed at the former Knight Commander of Ainur, our closest allies at the time, simultaneously plotting my "destruction"... but this is NationStates, no one has honor here.

I never trusted him; me giving the password to the founder account to him before logging out for a day was just me saying "fuck it, I'm done".

Oh course, It's always "part of the plan," right?

Next thing we know, you'll be telling us this is the "third region" :P
viewtopic.php?f=12&t=311308&p=22622175#p22622175

On Anders- I've talked to him on and off for a while. He seems like a chill guy. A lot more knowledgeable, calm, and responsible. Also, he's open about his past, no mysteries there, and hasn't proposed any great plans.

Also, I know a few of you have questioned if people will follow Neph - my response to that is that for every one that does, I bet at least one person who's left due to Neph will come back.

Now, I just want you all to take a moment and realize, almost a year ago, Neph was crying out to the world that he would change Gameplay in a year, among other things. In that time instead, TEK had every major op either taken by defenders, taken by unity, or abandoned for little reason. Two full governments left, the region was shut down, the region came back, and the third set of leaders (or one of them at least :P) couped it fully, and banjected Neph himself.

A year's a very long time in NS.

Let's just say he did more than his fair share of backstabbing himself. There's a reason more than half a dozen second and third-in-commands have walked out on him, and some of his actions (like blatantly lying to his own people) aren't exactly scrupulous themselves. While two wrongs don't necessarily make a right, I'll agree that this was legitimately the only way that TEK was ever going to experience any sort of major, positive, reform. Trust me, two generations of us tried. We ended up walking out, but I can't fully say that if we had the access Anders did, that none of us would have done the same. Once upon a time, six of us left, and formed Sicarius, and though we've since gone our ways to separate regions, we were fairly successful during our time alone. Maybe if we'd have had founder access, I would be a lord of TEK today, under Val as king, rather that the Hawk I am. Maybe not, maybe we would have put that down as beneath us - but we truly loved the region back then, just couldn't stand serving under Neph any longer.

Look, I know you guys think I'm just pretending, but I'm dead serious right now. :/

It wasn't planned, but that still doesn't mean I care. Sorry to disappoint. I've been losing interest in NationStates for awhile now because of my duties as a founder, and I had no one I trusted to pass the region down to.

I'm done pretending to be a radicalist. I'm going to take on a new character now, but with the same nation. I can't quit just now; I just finished building my influence calculator and update tools.

I have a few ideas on what to do next. Nothing definite yet.
