I disagree based on the ruling that you can't RP as real life nations. The idea that they did exist ICly is accepted, but for them to exist in the present requires someone to role-play as them, which isn't allowed in II and NS.

If you're RPing with someone who RPs their nation as what is pretty much a carbon copy of an IRL nation, it is allowed iirc.

The stance I believe moderation has taken is identical in everything but name is fine. For instance Egypt could be changed to the Nile Republic and no one would bar an eyelid.

For instance I largely RP in NSVerse as being the regions on the NSWorld map and some other regions (e.g., I hold land in Guanxi, which isn't on the NSWorld map but I consider it apart of my cannon and my NSVerse), archipelogoes and selected countries dependent on nations I'm rping with.

If I wish to join an rp that's largely based in RL geography then RP as either a merchantile empire in the Med or as a lolUK.

George, Guanxi no longer exist. The replacement region is Sondria.

Sondria is a separate region with a separate map.

Oh, good, hopefully my application will get the votes it needs so I can at least find out what happened.

Hayesalia, it has been decided that the voting process will be done in the way as of such, that to be accepted as a trainer, one only is required to write up a post regarding a scenario, given by one of the Judge panel mentors/trainers.

We didn't ask for your resume, although it is indeed good that it is stickied (congratz on that by the way), but such is not required by us, and thus there's no need for you to post that suggestion..

When the time comes, the result will be announced, don't worry..

I myself have always voted on every single applicants so far, but i cannot demand the others to do the same, as real life will always be their priorities, in comparison to that of NS.

Your use of spoilers in this post is unnecessary. You want people to read the examples you posted there shouldn't be any reason they have to open up a spoiler to do so.

Spoilers in general are used far too often on NS and they serve little to no purpose. I strongly advise against them in good writing. Save them for NSG.

Spoilers are useful in some contexts, such as storefronts, though they do tend to get overused in II. Personally, the only thing I'd use them for in II is in an OOC note at the end, say to make it so that a large ORBAT doesn't take up a ton of space even though it's OOC.

It is really more of an OOC notice, and I'm trying to keep it uncluttered. Spoilers help that a bit.

Because it is an example of your main thesis in the first post and more than pertinent to your actual topic I'd said it is far from cluttered with that there. It's more of an eyesore in a spoiler than it serves to declutter the thread. Don't be afraid to display stuff. Clutter is nonsensical, this is far from that.

It's quite large though, and I don't think it would add as much to the first post if it was let free. Too large. There's a reason I use a fair few spoilers, it means I'm protecting you from this:

Why would they put pictures of themselves in an official communique? No government does that, and it serves no purpose to begin with.

I recommend not posting them at all.

I disagree with that. It helps to give an idea of the faces of people who are, by and large for those major events, hostile. If somebody wants to describe the PM or Queen, that's gonna be a good way to check. That's why I spoiler it.

Agree with Santh actually. That type of thing belongs in a factbook, not a communique.
