Your tenacity on trying to keep them altogether is admirable... Heh...
Curiously enough, even when I considered that the NLO wasn't a good thing, and that I was part of the NPO leadership when that happened, I do think that Lazarus never had as much stability as when it was shadow-controlled by the NPO... Sad, isn't it?
I think LAZARUS needs its dignity. I think LAZARUS deserves to be TREATED and HANDLED like a GCR, and not like a tool or a toy, which is what has been happening for a couple years now...

At one point he was even listed as one of the people to give endorsements to in order to fight the LWU, but he had declared neutrality in the whole affair and cooperated with them. But he didn't seem that happy about it.

Where were you when Lazarus was a dead LWU colony run by four people as their plaything?
Your words are worthless now. No credibility.

An autocratic regime is not automatically equitable to the wolfist one, despite what your apparent fetish for democracy would have you believe. Cool the jets, just a little

That's fair, but if people are going to use this opportunity to slander democracy (somehow) by trying to pretend democracy is what has ruined Lazarus when it was clearly an autocratic occupation in the form of LWU banjection tyranny (if you were in TRR you would have been disturbed by how many Lazarene natives were being banned), then they can expect to be called out for their BS.
Keep in mind, the region that should - theoretically - be the most unstable GCR because it doesn't have any Border Control, is extremely stable in comparison to its sister GCR who requested and got Border Control added. Why? Well I attribute it to TRR's healthy democracy, and certainly not to us being a TRI colony for twelve hours in 2010.

That, and defenders will pile to high heaven if any actually serious coup should occur

Hi! A few questions, if you don't mind.
1. Do you intend to eject and ban Killer Kitty, et al.?
2. Are you going to convene a constitutional convention? If so, how will it be organized?
3. Either before a convention, or if you're not convening one, how will Lazarus be governed? Who will make decisions?
4. Are you going to appoint endorsees immediately after becoming Delegate so they can build influence? If so, who?
5. You've noted your lack of gameplay experience. Why do you think you're prepared to rebuild a Sinker damaged by a months-long coup?
Thanks!

I appreciate your candor.
That said, I'm going to have to press you on at least one of the questions. I understand if you don't have answers to some of the more complex questions like a constitutional convention, etc., just yet, but surely you can tell us upfront whether you intend to eject and ban Killer Kitty, et al.? That's really pretty vital information if you're asking people to make you the next Delegate of Lazarus, because many have strong feelings about it, and deserve to know whether they will be banned or allowed to remain in the region. It doesn't require much expertise, it just requires a yes or no.
Thanks again, and best of luck to you.

Quite honestly, sir, NO ONE else has bothered asking me about it. For something that allegedly important, I'd think I would be getting asked much more frequently. Who I eject or ban, or if I eject or ban, and why I do or why I don't, is a matter of the future to be determined at that date and time, if I land the Delegacy, and only if then. If I don't, then it goes to the business of whoever wants to deal with a matter of the past, if he or she wishes to do so at all.
I know something of people's feelings on Lazarus, sir. I've been there for several years, now. I've seen situations come and go.
The focus should not be how to get revenge on specific individuals one feels slighted against. If those individuals can be channeled to newer and better ends, great. If they can't, that's on them. We'll see what goes down.
Now, I have classes to teach tomorrow, students to tutor, papers to grade, friends to see away from the computer, and family obligations to manage, all on top of all of this.
Look to the future, folks, when it comes to Lazarus, not where Lazarus has been. Lazarus can and will be much more than any one incident or person or singular small group.

To be blunt, what you need is for the coupers to be banjected and orderly government restored. That brings stability. Not being Mr. Congeniality.
