Recruiting

Postby Wadden-Amrum » Thu Oct 22, 2015 4:54 am

Okay, questions:

How do I tag groups of nations, like regions, new nations, or refounded nations?

Is targeting specific regions for recruitment allowed?

I think there was a thread somewhere in the national factbooks area where they give you the codes and how tos around the forum to tag them.

Oh, you can't do that. Regional recruitment is done on a mass scale, everyone gets your TGs, it's just their choice whether they decide to join you or not.

Your responsibility is to make your recruitment TG very seductive and attractive so you'll get an easy yes.

I mean tagging groups, like New, or Refounded, or entire regions.

Also, nobody answered my second question. Can we target specific regions, or is that against the rules?

When you send out recruitment TGs you can do New and Refounded thingies, but how do you actually make those work?

I have never actually made a region before so i wouldn't be of much help. :(

Tagging of specific regions is allowed, but most regions who are targeted retaliate with their own, and it won't win you any friends.

https://www.nationstates.net/page=faq#TGtagtypes - from the FAQ, I assume you are manually recruiting (only able to use nation names) or using stamps (all the special tags)

I'm not sure about the rules, but it is possible with stamps.

1. Add the region you want to target to your Dossier.
2. Open up your "New Telegram" page and click the little arrow to get a drop-down menu.
3. Under "Add", add the region you just added to your dossier. Be careful, though, this will send a TG to every nation in the region.
4. Type your telegram (or use a template like I showed you) and send.

Also, if you want to send to only new nations, you can do that too:
1. Follow Step 2 as described above.
2. Under "Add", click on "Special". This will give you a drop-down list.
3. Click on the one you want.
4. Repeat Step 4 as above.

Sending a telegram to an entire region is easy: 'region:[name]'. So, for Europe, 'region:europe'.

'tag:new[x]' -> tag:new5000 sends telegrams to the next 5000 new nations.
