I've really only given thought to it when I've seen gender polls, and then the thought quickly goes away.

Not likely. Except for maybe a very wide definition of 'local'.

Anyone partaking RP/TET gets post count up quick (plus I lost quite a lot of my post count when we last changed forums). And founding date? 2010? I started this nation in 2007 and it's not even my first.

But I was referring more to your naivety that the threat of mod attention and eventual ban would keep people from sending nasty telegrams/ridiculing your posts because they dislike your opinions/post content.

Now can we get back to the discussion at hand?

I've been here 10 years.

Then:
Gay marriage
Iraq/Bush
Abortion
Libertarianism topics

Now:
Obama
Feminism/transgender
Abortion
Libertarianism topics

I'm sorry, but it's not that big of a change for me. We had way more Nazis back in the day, too. Now we have sexists. Oh well?

I've never been to TET, and I'm not naive. I'm making this observation from experience. NS isn't nearly as bad as everyone claims it is, and it isn't full of hateful twats who insult you at the drop of a hat. The world doesn't match your cynicism.

Considering the amount of males on Nation States I can firmly say the lack of penis jokes and pictures of boobies completely outclasses NS over other largely male online communities.

It is unacceptable. Max Barry is clearly a bigot and must pay for advertisements on predominantly female sights and bar males from joining the game until the amount of females in NS equals the amount of males.

I have a better idea. We can have Max round up 'man quotas' and have them hanged or something to reduce the population of men to match the population of women. Seems legitimate. Oh wait, Max can't do that, damn.

Well, we have moderators that actually, you know, moderate. For being a team of volunteers, they're doing an awesome job so far. And I'm not saying this to "kiss up to them" or anything, it's from experience over a variety of internet forum communities.
