Magecastle/Ice States/Apato, whatever you call him, has honestly reformed himself in the last year or so and, in my opinion, is definitely worthy of a commend eventually given his work.

This is just a pathetic attempt to enforce a vendetta that the author frankly is trying to enforce to keep their own relevance and score points. Shameful.

I think I'd follow Pallaith et al and say that I hardly ever agree with Apatosaurus/Magecastle in terms of views (I don't think we've ever agreed on anything, other than to repeal GA#401, after pretty tough negotiations on wording), but a proposal of this kind is saddening.

Interesting, I didn’t know that. Still makes no difference to my opinion of this draft, which is pretty much with the consensus of those posting.

Of course, this particular draft is drivel intended to mock Magecastle, not a sincere effort to reward them for their work.

This resolution is bad. Let the kid grow.

That said, the sudden love for Apato by people who previously despised their very existence but suddenly changed their minds once Apato started working for them is fascinating.

I think he genuinely has grown as a person and a player. When we've talked, he's sounded as though he's realized "hey, what I was doing wasn't so great". I'm certainly willing to forgive and mostly forget if they can do that. I see no reason not to.

Can confirm, this is indeed Apato just on a new nation :blush:

As someone who has pretty much always been on the other side of the guy, I never thought it was in good taste to pick on them as much as people did when they were younger (and I said as much when I was still stewarding the NSGP server), and it's certainly not in good taste now that they're maturing. Didn't really feel it was necessary to add to the dogpile, but maybe it's important to throw that in as well.

Yes, I do know that. One of the reasons I said it was shite. I’ll be honest I did not like Apato’s proposals. However in their latest guises they have done good work in the SC. So I think this is a pretty piss poor effort at point scoring.

Yet another "Commend....nation X" resolution.
This kind of thing is making the SC a complete laughing stock.

The principle of this proposal has been criticised by other people; the substance of this criticism is obvious. A great deal of the Security Council's time is taken up by commending nations, however; there is a Commend category and you cannot give Commend resolutions custom titles.

This is what I’d like to call a very sad loser move. You can shit on people without trying to publicly embarrass them. Reeks of elementary school bully.

Support because the entire purpose of the SC is petty mean-spirited points scoring.
