I took a pledge not to use force for a political agenda, Belschaft. We couldn't do that with Balder, we had to establish a free and open constitutional convention because that was the fairest thing to do.

Just abuse people personally and lie behind everyones back?

@Esternial: http://balderns.net/topic/7704874/1/#new

That is a link with classic Unibot quotes in Balder, at least... just the public stuff. You wouldn't believe the stuff he says privately....

@Affrontness: I'd honestly rather have nothing to do with him, but he has once again chosen to attack Balder and once again, I am compelled to defend it.

I've posted such proof before Esternial and this is all public knowledge, posted by many people. Should try to read it one day.

You are riding on Unibot's success even now. Every insult you throw lifts you up by pushing him down.

Well, it's not lifting her up, per-se.

To me it's incredibly petty behaviour from someone who I assume is above the legal drinking age.

Then again, I will admit I'm not really immersed in Gameplay, but it might be a good idea to look at things from all perspectives other than your own.

Also, thank you, Solo.

Total user numbers? Of course I have those. I use Google Analytics. In fact, so does NationStates proper - I didn't even have to install anything. It was already there, I just added my website codes and boom, usage data. I don't see anything the glorious admins don't already see. You should inform yourself, I've never denied that I had basic usage stats.

I have no issues with Unibot personally (all the times - count them, 4, I believe) I've interacted with him directly, he's been charming and enjoyable to talk to. But I do have issues with Unibot's political platform, his moralizing, and his unwillingness to admit that he /has/ a political platform. Add to that things people whose opinions I trust far more than say, yours, have to say about the man and his conduct, and he earns dislike. There is still a difference between attacking him personally (something I and many people here have yet to do) and opposing him and his political platform.

@DYP: See, a man who fucking gets it.

Also, Afforess, really, what are you trying to do to change NS entirely? Apart from coding stuff, which is fine, we're talking about something else entirely, something you've affected no change. Your only footsteps into Gameplay have been to make an ass of yourself and be a Unibotian Apologist.

Mahaj, take out the 'ness' and you'll grasp why Rachel spells his name that way. assuming you have access to a basic dictionaly, since I assume you're unfamiliar with the term 'Affront'

Afforess, I point you to the second quote in my signature.
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.

Now that I've gone through the past 8 or 9 pages of the thread to get today's posts...

This juvenile namecalling has no place here, and the repeated, clearly aggravated attempt at provocation sends you straight to a *** 1-day ban for flaming/flamebaiting. *** You can argue your position without breaking the rules, and I suggest you figure out quickly how to do so.

Afforess wrote:you just can't see through the haze of filth you live in.
I would have expected better of you. You've been warned not all that long ago for flaming, also in Gameplay. Apparently the lesson didn't take. *** Afforess, 1-day ban for flaming/flamebaiting. *** You make a useful unofficial tool that some people use, that does not put you above the site's rules.

Mad Jack wrote:You're a password stealing, information whoring code monkey.

You're not important, dear. You're a pest.
This is not the place to be making such serious allegations, certainly not dressed up along with blatant flaming. You don't like Afforess, nobody says you have to like him. But you don't get to lob such serious public accusations over it. If you have reason to believe that there is password theft going on, the proper place to file it is the Getting Help page. And you have a *** 3-day ban for flaming/flamebaiting *** in which to submit one.

As for the rest of the thread, I get it. Gameplay matters tend to get people heated. DON'T let a game get you so worked up that we have to go and start smacking folks with the banhammer over it. The sort of nasty emphasized above IS NOT OKAY, whether you're a raider, a defender, a native, and so on. Rules still apply, so knock off the nasty before mods have to knock some more heads.

Thread unlocked, and I will be mightily pissed if I have to come back in here again.

Well that was a massive overreaction on the part of moderation. Maybe instead of handing out bans for minor offenses the moderators and admins should try investigating what Afforess can and can't see with NS++, since he has openly admitted he's snooping on its users and his admission even caught [violet]'s attention.

Regarding accusations from the glorified code monkey whose name no one knew before he developed his spyware: Rachel Anumia didn't ride anyone's coat tails to get her name known in Gameplay, nor did she have to practice the politics of personal destruction Unibot practices on a near daily basis to become and remain prominent.

Afforess is an issue author, while if I'm correct he was the delegate of Capitalist Paradise for nearly a year. He wasn't afraid to make his opinion known within the World Assembly during that time. Just because you haven't heard of someone doesn't mean their name is known within another community in the game.

I also knew Afforess quite well before NS++. He was delegate of Capitalist Paradise for quite a while and wrote Capitalist Paradise's history and managed their forums. When we were building a UCR Foreign Affairs department in UDL, he was the guy I wanted to represent us in the Capitalist sphere of NS.

Bullshit and that's what you hate so much about Balder. It's proof that we don't need to be a corrupt and moralistic cult to build an active and successful region in NationStates. For as long as there are people in NationStates ready to stand up and be counted, and vote for what they believe in, independent democracy will live on and trump your absolutist clique every time. The power lies with the citizens, Unibot. Every citizen of Balder who ever joined us is important and voted is vital to the region.
