Two days, and yes. Your post, on the other hand, was unnecessary.

Use an IM client or use F7/TET if you want idle chat. You can discuss gameplay here.

Yes, and if you actually continued reading that post you quoted, you'd see that it says "and thus posts here should be to do with gameplay". If you have any further non-gameplay related posts to make here, you can take them with a warning for spamming. That includes responses to this post.

Also roughly how many times has the udl thread been locked? :p Filled with troublemakers. All fired up from my raid. Which is an awesome party thus far.

I hope we don't lose Madjack :unsure:

Honestly, that'll be pretty unjust. Anyways, UDL's rhetoric in general is making me want to puke.
Speaking as a Defender, I'm actually getting an urge to join UIAF, just because how painful it is. Moralism isn't a good recruitment point, guys.

Anyways, TBH, great job in Sapphire! Masterfully executed :) I hope to see you all in TRR, but I've got to respect a well-done raid.

The UDL inflames passions and indigestion all around.
Never underestimate the power of cynicism, pessimism and negativity to prevent terrible things from happening. Only idealists try to build the future on a mountain of bodies.

The Thing to Remember About NationStates is that it is an almost entirely social game - fundamentally, you have no power beyond your own ability to convince people to go along with your ideas. In that sense, even the most dictatorial region is fundamentally democratic.

It was great working with so many different groups. A bold liberation effort by fendas swatted down by me as I flailed at my frozen computer.

Yeah, it was fantastic to see LWU in action again! I'd really like to see that Condemnation I got for them be able to shine again :P
