I'm just very, very queasy about this sort of thing. I have made backups of my work, but the very fact that I might be wrongly accused and DEATed, and my 4 years of work down the drain... is unsettling. I know I can just make a new nation or appeal but I really, REALLY don't want anything to happen to me.

NS is like my second home, you guys are the best people I have ever had the pleasure of talking to, and I certainly won't let a spammer get me into trouble inadvertently.

Because this happened to me twice! Another separate DOS used my puppet's name before and I have to file a GHR.

And I'm sure you would be too if a spammer was using your nation's name, like Ethel Mermania Banana, or something.

Probably not. I dont have a guilty conscience.

I certainly don't either. Look, I'm sorry. It's just my nature to be very paranoid even if I am not up to no good. The Mods have already cleared me, and talking about this would just make things worse.

I am just a person who gets scared no matter what. I apologise.

And neither does Valentine. They are a valued member of the NS community and I do not believe they would do something like this

Okay okay, lets all calm down here. If Valentine Z really is the Banana Kid and really does love her nation here, would she really do something so obvious to incriminate herself?

The Banana Kid strikes me as just a weird elementary school prankster, something that Valentine Z clearly is not.

However it attracts attention and draws suspicion. You may want to work on that.

How can a pickle be so suspicious when it is so delicious :D

Hurd, you're triggered at the mention of pickles. I find that kinky.

It is one of those mornings. I ordered Uber Eats for brekky and somehow in my not-enough-sleep-because-jolted-by-crazy-cat stupor I somehow managed to order a frappe instead of a latte. This is a very bougie problem to have, but welcome to my life this morning.

It is indeed hard to describe. As hard to describe as life... or death? It might well be an atmosphere of death.
