Thanks to both of you for your help. An option to limit endorsements would be nice, but that's a discussion for technical.

Government Spending

Postby The Republic of Potestatem » Tue Oct 11, 2016 11:05 am

I am confused on how to increase government spending. My friends and I use nationstates as the platform for an rpg and I want to increase my overall government spending. I have increased taxes but spending has remained roughly the same. When I looked at numbers, I realized it depends on the portion of the economy that is government. How do I increase this? Raising taxes hasn't affected this number very much.

Your nation must have been near the line between two different categories, and that issue pushed you over the line.

You should know better, NSA - size bbcode doesn't work in WFE's :P

E War, I think what you're seeing is the names of pinned dispatches, technically below the WFE, but they can appear to be a part of it. You can pin dispatches to a WFE in regional controls.

I read "factbook" and "large" and kind of made an assumption. :P

Think it's the region he's founder of: https://www.nationstates.net/region=brightport

Best way to revive your region is having new nations in it (recruitment). Most other options are hit and miss, and in general don't take off, or only have activity for a short time then return to normal (like being raided, game events, etc.)

Population not growing

Postby Berahtia » Fri Nov 04, 2016 3:20 pm

I started a new world yesterday. My population stopped growing abruptly when it reached 6 million and stayed there ever since. Is this normal? How can I get it to grow again?

Aim to let your people have as much say as possible in the political process.
Let them do whatever they like, however stupid. (The interpretation in some issues is not consistent on this, though)

Joining the WA in and of itself has no effect, but when WA resolutions are passed they may have (usually small) effects on your national freedoms.

How many did you send- the success rates are really low, and it will be harder to recruit the first few than any others.
