No.

I doubt even the Black Hawks will welcome an attempt to make the site politically one-sided.

Also, this thread is about new players. So this isn't the place.

Oh and on a side note, I am disgusted that they used my country's flag to make a nation of hatred (if hate is a strong word, gatekeeping). Not cool, yo.

But this is not the place for this, so... I am gonna stop myself here.

Going back to the topic, Welcome once again, newcomers!

Not a Mod, just a relatively older nation, so...

Here's a dispatch (not by me) to get started: https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=444406
And of course, as Reppy posted, the OSRS and for those wondering on "Why oh why my nation and my flags got deleted": viewtopic.php?f=16&t=260044

We don't have any politics other than anti-fascism (Stalinists/Maoists/similar would also probably not be appreciated), and don't care what the rest of the site gets up to beyond that.

The only times the politics of this site are of any real concern raiding-wise is when it comes to liberation proposals.

As a Redditor, I am slightly offended at this.

Agreed: given it seems that NS gets bumped up every year or so, it'd be a great idea.

Now, if you excuse me, I should see if I can get some popular Instagram user to shill for NS...

Nah, the mods are just raking in kills in preparation to the next Mod Olympics. :lol:

...could we have Mod Olympics this year, please? The real ones were canceled. (They say postponed, for now, but more likely it'll end up being canceled altogether.)

The YouTuber in question was Drew Durnil.

The real issue with this is that he seemed to portray the game in a casual light, and didn't emphasize the more "hardcore" aspects like forums, R/D gameplay, RPs, etc.

Therefore, we aren't going to get as many people who actually "play" NS. Instead, we are going to get an influx of people who (not saying it's wrong) are kinda a waste of space. The influx of WA joins will likely cause a lot of crappy resolutions to sort through and potential topples of power from delegates.

However, we are also going to get people like myself who never would have seen it before, who are really happy to actually participate. I used to play just for the issues until I actually got into it and realized it was something I really wanted to do. But for 1 of me there were about 10 of my friends who also joined. They never actually posted in the forums, all they did was play for the issues, just taking up the connection. Now imagine that, but on a much bigger scale.

TLDR; Too many people is bad, but after a while it will be better because only the "hardcore" players will stay on.

1% is still 100+ players. That's enough to do a raid on a small region.
