One of the things I most disliked about other regions was the fact that you have to separate your time between NationStates and another website with a completely different format.


You do realize the in-game region is only meant to serve as the front end of the community you are building correct? Off-site forums are designed and intended to do most of the heavy lifting of that community.

That kind of blatant voter fraud is easy to detect. We've had two instances of voter fraud but both were swiftly found out and dealt with.


I can guarantee your polls have been toyed with multiple times, and you are none the wiser.

sarcasim I'm assuming...

I don't see such importance with forums myself. Run many a region without them and they've done just fine. However what you'll find with the timing of your region and what's discussed on your RMB - Mass decline in activity once NS summer ends.

Take into account what Chester says; he isn't a stupid man.

So I'm pinned as a terrorist now? Oh goody

I think I'll prove I'm not a defender then. Internal disruptions aren't hard to cause. Can't see anyone helping you out either with your direct recruiting from absolutely everyone.

Whatever. You'll be seeing me around and I'll be standing by this.

Well, seeing all the stuff mentioned above, it seemed like it :P And it's going fine, no problems or arguments lately.

I read your Constitution and noticed you have a very similar style. Do you have an embassy request system / would you like to set something up?

Yeah, I think a big reason why there was this controversy was that last post, "hijacking the RMB". But as I explained, I never meant the isles RMB, I was exaggerating the fact that me and arctriul were completely monopolizing the sanctum RMB with posts about TWI. the other posts may not be likeable, but they are true, and I think with the misinterpretation of the last post cleared up, there really shouldn't be to much controversy. People already knew I didn't support Vancou as WA or Prez.

wld say that it is an incredibly unique experience that most people will love. we were having some growing pains, but that is natural, and we still boast some of the best activity and involvement levels.

For the indefinite future, The Western Isles is accepting virtually all embassy requests, regardless of size, tenure, or status.
