I meant from TEP's perspective. Even Fedele must find you annoying, because no-one wants to be "defended" in public by someone who gives all the wrong answers.

The LWU cub, who only joined TEP a month ago, acting as self-appointed spokesperson, defending the allegations against Scardino et al was always going to get this response.

And yet you seem to be the only person from TEP defending this. If this is just a conspiracy theory as you allege, your responses are only giving it increased notoriety. If you really were looking out for TEP maybe you should have waited to see what the official response/spin on this would be and gone from there. Instead, you have become the most vocal person in TEP on the issue. Even if you aren't acting in any official manner, your actions have made you out to be the spokesperson on the issue. And if anything your actions have only continued to turn us against your cause and are hurting TEP in the process. Give it up now or continue to hurt your region. Your call.

Combine that with a unique "culture" against "marsupials" (read natives) and I don't know how this isn't the perfect recipe for a coup. I'll say it now: anyone in TEP who believes in a democracy needs to step up to protect their region or accept that a coup is imminent.
The coup is already in progress. There is no reason to overthrow a region's government when you can fully take over by exploiting legal flaws.

Glen Rhodes Oct 2018 MOFA Election wrote:Stop paying so much attention to the Gameplay forum. For the past year or so, the Gameplay forum has been dominated by trolls and enemies, who constantly derail our embassy thread, twist words to stoke controversy, or just “shitpost” as if that’s the main form of interaction in the game. Simply put, it’s a waste of time. Instead of caring so much about how we’re viewed in the NS Gameplay forum or Discord server, we should focus on communicating directly with our allies and on our own forum, where trolls and shitposting aren’t tolerated.
Glen Rhodes Feb 2019 MOFA Election wrote:Ministers often believe that being criticized in the Gameplay forum or Discord is embarrassing and detrimental to our community. This often manifests in the belief that a good Minister of Foreign Affairs is saccharinely polite and “positive”-- one who offends nobody and earns plaudits for their agreeableness. Ministers who believe this tend to be ineffectual at promoting our interests and protecting those interests from our enemies. They tend to believe that no response is the best response to aggression, when in reality that means they’re letting others define who we are in the game. They tend to strategize through the lens of “good PR” rather than “best for our strategic interests,” which usually ends up meaning “what will please our detractors most.” A good Minister fosters good will with our allies and partners and earns scorn from our foes. An independent and autonomous foreign policy will, by definition, make our enemies angry, because it means they cannot use the Gameplay pulpit to bully us into thinking we’re wrong.

I would not have blamed you for taking the same approach after that conversation in the TBH embassy (yuno the throwaway use of the word allied turned into the most pointless dictionary war about something completely unrelated to the previous conversation).
I'd not be opposed to a revision of the guide to gameplay to make it slightly less... tedious? Not every political statement or attempt at point-scoring needs a line by line rebuttal
