I honestly like issues as much as the percentage management you're supposed to do in your economy. It offers something new that I doubt any AAA title has ever tried before(Or at least like NS did it).

The issues are both silly and thoughtful, so they bring some shining light.

The best part of NS for me are the forums and the people. People like Iffy, Herp, The Grey Wolf, Benomia 3, Lancearic, Saurisisia, and others all make my day. Even the crazy conservatives on NSG make me laugh with their crazy right-wing ideas and they embody the diversity of this site. We've got Slavs, Brits, Hispanics, Native Americans, Chinese, Koreans, Catholics, Protestants, Atheists, FSM followers, Republicans, Democrats, Bronies, Metalheads, Furries, Goths, and a whole smattering of other ways of showing the diverse landscape that is NS. From the hardcore Nazis to the Tea Partiers. From strong communists and moderate socialists to heavy libertarians and anarchists. Humanity is represented on this website in a way that I love and can interact with.

NSG, Arts and Fiction, and Portal to the Multiverse are my favorite sub-forums on this site, taking the place of International Incidents and F&NI which I used to carouse in during my earlier days as New Utah Americana and the Mexican Paradise. Sauritican, Equestican, Roma Byzantina, and the puppets that I've made and forgotten as well as the previously mentioned NUA and MP all are a part of my teenage years and will stay with me for the rest of my life as will my discoveries of Anime and MLP due to this site.

TLDR: I love you NS

Yes, I find the issues somewhat educational.

You sir, you sir said the responds I wanted. You just said everything that makes NS great and why it was hard for me to choose my favorite part of nation states! The diversity, the people, the political talks, and the feeling you get in knowing that your apart of a great site. You made my day with that responds! Because it's what I was looking for.

There are many NS game players who go on the forums, and they are heavily involved in the NS Gameplay, as I once was.

I like the global assortment of the players.

I also like their relative sophistication; they may have odd opinions, but they are difficult to dupe.

What's the problem? If you don't like it, don't participate. The event only runs for 36 hours.

The best trolling would be if the damage to our nations was permanent.
