Well it is OUR THREAD, so you may find that to be the case.
As to your other concerns, I am beyond tired of this same old whining. There are perfectly accessible tools and mechanisms to stop this from happening. Why in the nine hells you and others like you find it easier to create a thread to cry on is beyond me. Some do indeed have legitimate issues regarding security. Given that you are not one of them I would suggest learning how to read, applying that skill to the NS FAQ and sorting yourself out.
And as to this pathetic ascribing motives to us though the voice of frustration and butt hurt? It's an indulgence of the worst sort- blaming all your ills on us, lamenting our lack of souls/intelligence/etc, and then carrying on as if your inventions of our motivation is correct! Lunacy.
Founder=safety. If you honestly can't work that out, then I'd suggest a more graphics based game.

Just my opinion.

You do understand that we only raid founderless regions right?

Seems to me that you don't 'only raid founderless regions'. Are you part of TBR? If yes, then I can clearly see a founder in the League of Christian Nations. If not, and you do, as you say, only raid founderless regions, then I am not aiming my argument at you. I know that raiding occurs in regions with founders, and as such, the methods I have outlined need to be considered.

Raiding =/= Tagging
What TBR did was a tag. These are temporary, and doesn't mean anything.

Well it seems to have the same overall effect as raiding, just on a lesser extent - annoying the heck out of people. And that is what I oppose. Because, whatever labels you give it, it is effectively trolling. Annoying others for enjoyment.

Well, if was a native I'd rather hope that if I got invaded at all it would be a tag, those piles can wreck a region. Be glad you didn't get piled.

"Lock the doors, bar the windows, keep the kids indoors and seem anti-social, because here we go, having a dictatorial region run by those who are afraid of the hordes of NS."
No thanks. That doesn't sound too appealing.

Well then the alternative is to suck it up and deal with raiders. There are also defenders who have fun expelling raiders from your region out there.

So, the choices for a newly-founded region are to be invaded or to become antisocial and lose more members than they gain? Which is the lesser of two evils, and why choose them when there could be a better way? I understand your point - that it is a game mechanic that some find pleasure in, but it annoys the heck out of most people.

I don't see why protected regions are considered antisocial. Plenty of regions are composed of RPers with similar interests, such as MT/Realism or their own world in an FT or PT setting or just a common ideology. It's not hard for an active founder to take a minute to review a new nation's entry and let them in.
