Your First Post

Postby Napkiraly » Wed Feb 06, 2013 5:18 pm

So, pretty simple really. What was your first post here on NSG? How do you view it as of right now? Ashamed? Humoured? Indifferent? You get the idea. Also, I guess how far along have you come in your views from this first post of yours? Changed a lot? Little? Not at all? Etc, etc.

You can give the first post of your current nation or if you can find it for your absolutely first or however far back you can go nations as well.

As for moi, the first post I ever posted was..."This is why I support the death penalty, bastards like these guys should be executed for what they have done."

Well...a great introduction to the community, I must say.

Well, I'd say I was naive at the time. Now I am completely against the death penalty. Also at this time I can recall being quite authoritarian and nationalistic, not fascist, but still...eh. I'd say this post brings a mixture shame and humour. Shame for what I once was and believed in, but humour because well, most people start off with a "Hello, I am X". Naw, I gotta come swinging in advocating death for other human beings. But yeah, I've come a long way since that first post and I'm quite glad I have.

Right, you guys/gals turn.

I had an imposed economy for about 2 weeks but it has since risen to the level of Basket Case, so I don't think its impossible to get a higher level. Maybe the age of your nation is a factor, as mine is only about a month old or so.

ask moderation about reading serious moderation candidates TGs without telling them about it until afterwards and/or apparently refusing to confirm/deny the exact timeline of TG reading ~~~ i hope you never sent any of the recent mods or the ones that got really close anything personal!

signature edit: confirmation has been received. they will explicitly do it before and without asking. they can look at TGs basically whenever they want so please keep this in mind when nominating people for moderator or TGing good posters/anyone!
