One thing you can say in the resolution's defense is: Kandarin did the same damn thing and to a worse extent and we commended him. But I'm not sure if "two wrongs" is really the most convincing argument here.

"We support this proposal."

Who? Never heard of this nation. I'd like to pretend I pay attention to a tiny bit of gameplay.

He's one of the original Farkers. You must pay homage to the Founding Fathers of Raiding!

I am happy to say that I gave the last approval to move it to the Quorum. Good luck.

Why do we need a resolution to compliment someone? Classic WA meddling with life

Commendations are resolutions that recognize significant contributions to the game.

I apologize for the belated reply. I thank you for the approval, t'was most helpful.

It seems fortunate that none of the nations are around that loop helped to grief / region destroy. You timed this well in order to commend one of the least commendable players in the game.

It seems you're unable to look past your ideology and see the positive things Loop has brought to this game. That's disappointing to hear, but not too surprising.

Positives to the game are in the eye of the beholder. Even without his farker history I do not see that he has done enough positive to warrant a commendation.

Still disappointing, but nevertheless, an understandable reason to oppose.

My nation was "created" in TEP. I remember the times when Loop was delegate. TEP was very inactive at the time. Recruitment spam on the RMB was almost non-stop and nobody talked. Somebody mentioned Kandy. I would say on comparison, TEP in 2004 was worse than TRR during the end of Kandy's reign. (to be fair, this seems to happen to all delegates who sat for too long. TSP at the end of Fudge's reign was also super inactive.)

Also, although I don't know Loop personally and wasn't there to witness the Farkers' destruction and trolling, judging from the posts he made he doesn't seem sorry for what the Farkers did.

Not to mention this proposal posted by Loop to the GA last week:

Ban Commend and Condemn

A resolution to improve worldwide human and civil rights.
Category: Human Rights
Strength: Strong

Proposed by: 1 Infinite Loop

Description: Be it known that Commend and condemn proposals are just silly and pointless they exist to either stroke the egos of the win and insecure or pick on and bully the vocal and others.

they are like a telephone pole, pointless.
The Hippos do not like them.

Approvals: 0

Status: Lacking Support (requires 81 more approvals)

The mentioning of "Hippos do not like them" seem to be typical trolling, making a joke of the SC. If he thinks C&Cs are "silly and pointless", why should we commend him?

AGAINST

Congratulations, Loop.

Congrats Ramaeus and Loop!
