Because it involves music, Arts & Fiction may be the category of best fit.

We often do obituary threads of artists in General. I think I'll leave the two of them out there, since they're in different forums. People who don't go to NSG might go to A&F and vice versa.

Greater Miami Shores bumping his own thread with another turgid rant.

Seems to be right on two weeks later, maybe technically not a grave dig, but really this shouldn't be allowed should it?

*shrug* There's nothing wrong with it.

Actually, it does. They're requesting a News post from the admins. Personally, I'd have tried to write the news article or make it more appealing, but not my nation or event.

I'm gonna say "no".
For one thing, they're all older than your OP, so they would show up first.
Second, they're not your posts, and you don't own the source thread.
Third, it's a total pain to do post moves, and I'm not willing to devote an hour to move 15 posts for you. Do your own copy/paste.

Furthermore, remove your link advising players to get mods to move posts. We're not your personal librarians.

I'm possibly planning on redoing this proposal, however, it already has its own thread, though in the WA Archives. Should I have it moved back to the World Assembly or...?

No. It's a Historical Defeated Resolution. Start a new thread (and reference the old one in your OP if you like).

Mega thread request

Postby Imperial States America » Mon Jul 24, 2017 10:00 am

Looking at the F&NI thread I've noticed 9 seperate Q&A threads for certain nations just on the first page alone. I don't doubt theirs is more I suggest a mega thread for Q&A about nations so they don't clog up the forum.

I concur with Fris. That wouldn't help things.

As it is, they're permissible if they provide enough initial information to instigate a discussion and do not devolve into yes/no questions and answers. If you see any that potentially do, please report them.

Keshiland is now "drafting" a "resolution" to repeal GAR #1, which is obviously impossible due to the game's coding. Will you please lock the thread, maybe with some modly words to Keshi?
If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless. Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you. | Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’

No, I want to see how far he's going with this. He's never paid any attention to modly words before, so I don't see any reason to indulge him. Maybe he'll submit a nice illegal proposal about it. Wouldn't that be nice.
