The Security Council,

Recognizing the noble goals of the natives of Eclipsis, who carved out a place in the dawn of the Frontiers for democratic nations seeking a peaceful home,

Recognizing that darkness has befallen the region at the head of an invasion of by raider forces,

Understanding that these forces are nothing more than invaders seeking to destroy a peaceful and independent community,

Asserting that so long as raiders hold the region, the values that shine bright at the heart of Eclipsis’ community lie in peril,

Knowing that legislation by this body should accompany military action in order to mitigate the damage invaders can do to the region and stymie the ease with which raiders can permanently claim control over the region,

Hoping for the quick return of Eclipsis back to its native community, so that it may continue to thrive free from occupation or harm,

Marked as legal, but noting that I observed a likely unintentional "of by" in the second "Recognizing" clause, if that matters to you.

At this point, defenders don't defend.

...or the thread title. Though "Liberatie Eclipsis" does have a nice ring to it. It sounds like the title of a Eurovision entry.

Fr fr, at this point the defender community has fallen so down so hard like Biden’s approval ratings

It’s a bailout at this point, support though, but my point is point; defenders are lazy and always use the SC to make up for their laziness

[Outer Sparta]

I would support it, but I question why every small region that gets raided should get a liberation. Just play by the game instead of asking the SC for a bailout, then go for a liberation if nothing else works.

It's quite interesting how these things work sometimes! Liberate the region using the military game mechanic - fine. But liberate the region using the WA game mechanic - now you're just not playing "by the game," whatever that means.

Nowadays, (and I’m pretty sure for a long time now) Liberations (or libjunctions for that matter) are ineffective at doing anything.

After the whole Realm of the Whispering Winds fiasco, one has to wonder what's the primary strategy for defenders.

[Nu Elysium]

do defenders even do anything? seems like every week or so there's a new region that's been raided, and a new SC proposal to liberate it imo.

Because these rubber-stamped mad libs don't give natives their regions back. A military liberation does.

Was this not obvious?

Outer Sparta implied that liberating a region via the SC isn't playing "by the game" - and I was just pointing out that it obviously is.

And you can complain about these liberations being rubber-stamped all you like, but assembling a durable coalition of people who will regularly vote for your WA resolutions is just as "by the game" as finding 150 people to put their WA nations in a region for a week.

I'm not surprised it's a TNPer that's trying to argue that glorified policy LARP is just as gameplay as Gameplay. =P

[Fachumonn]

It looks like both of these are going to miss quorum?

And in turn, I am not surprised that someone from a region that only has raiding going for it, is trying to argue that some parts of gameplay don't count, actually

out of all the raider regions you could've thrown this at sparkalia is arguably the most roleplayer one out of them, bar lotd maybe.

Some responses are too out of touch to be worth responding to. Comfed's about Sparkalia is one of them. I appreciate it, though, Omni. =P

Just want to share that I believe this is currently being quorum raided. I had approved this proposal and in response received this telegram on Thursday from Fresonic, who I assume is a puppet considering they were only recently refounded and have not joined the World Assembly/had any other recent happenings that would suggest this was a main account.

Hello. I am reaching out today as a concerned citizen of the world. It has become clear to me that defenders are not willing to support natives in any meaningful way. Time and time again they rely on the Security Council to do their dirty work. It is not fair to us that they sit back on their thrones of shiny badges and medals instead of actually protecting us.

Even in their most recent proposal they wrote

Knowing that legislation by this body should accompany military action in order to mitigate the damage invaders can do to the region and stymie the ease with which raiders can permanently claim control over the region,

Despite this “promise”, Defenders failed to deliver. They mustered less than half the force of the invaders on the first day and promptly gave up after a single try. Defenders need to be shown we are unapproving of their poor efforts, but also unapproving of their measly begs for saving their necks.

I implore you unapprove the proposal “Liberate Eclipsis”

After not responding to the above telegram, I was knocked out of my delegacy during minor update today by what appears to be some of the same organizations that are currently occupying Eclipsis. No actual damage has been done to my region or anything, but I feel this is suspicious behavior and suggests foul play by some of the people campaigning against this proposal. I personally will be voting 'for' once this gets to vote, mostly out of spite.

That's valid! =]

All's fair in love and war.

Thank you for the validation! <3
By the way, I love your flag!

[Lans Isles]

Voting for, even though I was banned from there, I want to get back on good terms.

[Mira Mesa]

A bit late, but support.
