NationStates++ | Browser Extension for NationStates

[Natanian DRNR]

Afforess, is there a way you can add something to NS++ that allows us to know which nations are puppets?

"What's privacy on NationStates?"
"I don't know son, we're NS++ users."

That's a very very bad idea on multiple levels.

just a way for the regional government to be able to know if a nation has a puppet to prevent multiple voting.

I can't do that because I don't have that information. I intentionally do not record IP address or browser information, and so have no way of determining who are puppets and who are not.

NationStates++ has a privacy policy. I am very clear what is and isn't collected. https://nationstatesplusplus.net/privacy

oh than never mind. I was just hoping for a way to block a nation from voting in regional elections multiple times.

I wonder if one day there could be a feature in NS++ that allows one to scroll down one's list of puppets when one has quite a few it goes down to the bottom of the screen and more puppets can't be added and the create more puppets button also becomes unclickable unless I am doing something wrong.

The export puppets feature is a lifesaver but any chance the puppet list could be scrollable one day?

[Port blood]

that puppet list in need of a serious overhaul anyways...remember the guy with like 4k puppets?


....I'm still scared of that guy....am i a puppet of him? :S

Any idea on how soon is "soon"? You probably can't give an exact date, but I will be happy with an estimation.

I was wondering if it's worth waiting a bit or should I just get one of those postmaster things already.

Thought I would let you know NS++ now has a bad reputation on Avast! and it recommends users remove it.

Avast! is a joke from what I heard about it.

I already have like 500 puppets. I was wondering if there could be an option to alphabetically sort nations.

Like the website? Can you screenshot exactly what Avast is warning you about?

[Leutria]

No, the add on. Didn't take a screenshot of the initial warning (which I felt was worded a bit more insistently), but this is what I can find at this point.

[The Republic of Lanos]

How do you even rate NS++ to begin with?

[Leutria]

I am not sure, have not looked it up yet.

[Shadow Afforess]

No, the add on. Didn't take a screenshot of the initial warning (which I felt was worded a bit more insistently), but this is what I can find at this point.

I think that is based on user ratings, which I can't do anything about (other than kindly ask Avast! users to rate the app themselves ).

I don't really have a timeframe.

Whenever I try to put a news story up on the roleplay news,I can't see it after I posted it.

News stories with the Roleplay or Gameplay news have to be manually approved by editors. That takes time.

Well,it's taken day for one of my puppets to get approved by it.

Your submission was reviewed and rejected for being too short, 2 days ago.

I realize the process is a bit opaque, I plan on making it clear the status of your submissions in the next release.
