Love or loathe Tim, you have to admit he has been one of the larger movers and shakers of GP for over half a decade. Throw in some UDL fluff and other defender accomplishments (he has many) and you'll be well on your way to a debatable proposal. There is also a lot more to be told about Spiritus as well, I'd imagine.

I have no problem with a commend of Tim, but the stuff about being VD in TNP turns it into a joke. Build up other areas, take that bit out.

That seems fair, seeing as how Tim himself doesn't like it. Speaking of that, we should make Mall Delegate of TNP :p

Tim was also Speaker of the Assembly in TRR, a job I’m rather fond of, seeing as how it’s mine now :p

I told you myself there were more impressive things done by Tim. Maybe I'll add that in place of the TNP thing everyone hated when I release version six.

I mean, it’s not super impressive, and wasn’t free of controversy. Wait, we’re commending Tim. Of course he’s not free of controversy, it’s literally Tim. We commend him for controversy. But it does kinda show he’s helped out in a lot of regions

I don't think that serving as Speaker of TRR or Vice-Delegate of TNP is in itself - or even cumulatively with similar positions held elsewhere - an "outstanding contribution" to NationStates. :P

That's not the whole thing. There's many different parts to the equation, such as positions held, and SC resolutions authored, among various other things.

There is nothing wrong listing something like that as a part of what the players contributions to the game have been. Just because someone doesn't think that particular thing is commendable doesn't mean that you can't include it in a larger list of activities. It has been done plenty in the past.

I for one, am definitely for this.

Tim is a great gameplayer, he's done a lot in his career both; in gameplay and in regional governments, plus he also kept my old region of Audaxia safe during my time away from NS. Not to mention, I was also back on NS for nearly three months (only sticking in small regions at the time during the month of November 2017) so he could have easily allowed Audaxia as a region to CTE, but he didn't and I'm thankful for that. :)

Yup, I mean, I'm commending because there are more commendable things than condemnable things, but if I was allowed to operative clauses, I'd certainly commend and condemn.

Yeah, at this point I kinda think it’s that commendations and condemnations don’t really mean different things, and they are mainly just recognitions. The coup of Osiris is worth mentioning, even if it isn’t commendable
