how did you discover nationstates?

[Neu California]

Someone posted about it, and I came.

Oh come on it's not that exciting.

It may ave been the porn I was watching...

[Bonnaful]

The voices told me to type in nationstates on google or bad things would happen.

One of my friends was looking up ace combat and found the “Your Countries Most Powerful Weapon” thread as a Google option. After looking through the next day he told me about these crazy nutcases who were on the internet. Well about a week later I joined. Now a few months later almost all of my buds our nutcases.

Quite Accidentally. I was looking up Stonehenge from Ace Combat 4 and Some nation had that in a "whats your nations most powerful thing" thread. I showed my friend and he made a nation. then I did too.

Coincidence? I think not.

we are two diffrent people

[Hassett]

Personal invitation from my main man, Max Barry. Haha nah, friend showed it to me.

[Selfworth]

one of my friends told me about it
then i found it again on stumbleupon.com

[Republic Of Hell]

One of the guys from a roleplaying game called Nation Creation linked me here. Not sure if he's active here or not.

I recently graduated from Computer Science and I was looking for information on how to create simulation games when NationStates just popped out on Google. And here I am.

I was reading about filibusters in the U.S. Senate on Wikipedia. Eventually, I ended up on this article:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quorum#Online_communities

The section above mentions NationStates.

[Ai-sha]

I just stumbled upon it in a random Google search.

[Mad hatters in jeans]

Oh some friend of mine showed me this neat game you could make your own country...no idea how he found it though. Played through the basics and derped around then got bored stopped playing i think i even made a comment or two on the forums but it was a bit much for me.
Fast forward a year or so (probably a couple of years) i was curious what my old nation was like, for some reason (maybe i forgot the password or something) i made this nation instead. Tried out the forums seemed okayish for a bit, but folks were a bit dickish back then got fed up/bored left again.
Fast forward another year, i was curious if anything had changed, some things had. Things seemed better somehow or maybe i had nothing better to do. There seemed to be a correlation between how much time i spent on here and my worsening grades in Uni. :-P
so i had to stop for another year or so. but then i quit uni so i came back.
Then ponies.

I was casually on the internet and looked up a game where you could play god. This was the closest it got.

lol i think this is as far from playing god in a game as you can get,

[Luw]

I wanted to create my own flag, so I search up how to create one online. Then, I got to Nationstates and ended up creating my own countries and my own region.

[The Orson Empire]

Also, I was trying to find something better to play than Cyber Nations.

[Fenrisgard]

I found NationStates through an advertisement. Been playing ever since. After reforming several times of course.

[Olthar]

Link related.


Nah, but seriously, I found a link to the site on another forum back in January of 2010, and I've been here ever since.

[United Dependencies]

This kid I knew in highschool showed it to me. I later found the forum.

[The Nuclear Fist]

My nephew is the one who founded this nation. I suppose he got bored with it, and as I had recently got back into town after having spent a bit of time in Albania, knew no one in town and was quite depressed, I suppose he turned it over to me as a way to cheer me up. I never really got around to making a different nation.

[Ekeliful]

One of my friends on facebook spoke of it and I decided to check it out.
Usually I'm not for these but I've decided to stick around because it is so simple.

[Alaje]

I saw an ad for it once when I was online back in 2007, I stayed here in my first incarnation til 2009ish.

[Faolinn]

By total accident.

[Arumdaum]

I was searching up micronations and this came up.

[Cill Charthaigh]

Someone posted about it, and I came.

Oh come on it's not that exciting.

An interesting climax for the thread

[Fedeledland]

I was looking for a flag of the Byzantine Empire and I think I got linked to a post by Arch. Not too sure though.

[Mavorpen]

Someone posted about it, and I came.

Oh come on it's not that exciting.

What if they start kissing me and groping me?
