New "Policies" Tab!

Postby FreethinkingAnarchists ResidingWherever » Thu Nov 09, 2017 5:19 pm

Wow I love the new "Policies"! So easy to see where someone stands :)
NationStates would be better without moderators policing profanity and other non-violent behavior.

It is pretty useful because you get so many issues that sometimes you don't remember legalizing/banning something.

On another hand, this policies tab is pretty cool. I can see why people don’t like it though.

For some reason, we are undemocratic and feudalist. We also have legal slavery. I don't remember ever agreeing to those things, though we have been a country for about a year. I also distinctly remember getting rid of the monarchy.

It's not accurate and, in my case, highly misleading. But I still love it!
To survive the coming age, we must adapt, resist populist influences, and root out greedy tyranny from the hallowed halls of government, and as God is my witness, we will survive.

It seems that only the most extremely enforced/repeatedly chosen policies are listed. I am currently using it to clean my dosier to be mostly nations similar and counter to mine.

I have legalised polygamy, same sex marriage, AI rights, biological reproduction is outlawed, parental licences are required to have children and citizens are created in VATs. So much potential... :lol:

That is just the side effect of having any politicians chosen at random, I found that out when trying to get something closer to direct democracy earlier on.
