Love the idea, trust me. I had The Roman Empire, but there's no Delegate-imposed password, so a Liberation is not going to do anything.

Preventative measures. See the first failed proposal for Liberate Westphalia. A sticking point to the failure of that resolution was the idea that a resolution wasn't needed because there was no password at the time. The result? The proposal failed, the region was passworded, the natives were ejected, and the region was turned into a raider trophy (before the founder returned). By the time a new proposal got to vote (which still narrowly failed), it was too late.

Don't make the same mistake. Stop the problem before it becomes one.

But...you can still put a password on the region after there is a liberation...
The Roman Empire would just need to find a new Delegate.

You're mistaken. A liberation blocks/removes all delegate-imposed passwords, regardless of who is in the position. The only thing it doesn't affect is founder-imposed passwords.

The entire thing happened in a private chat back in february, after all. Not on the boards.

Not at all. Unless real organizations in the real world are the ones doing the blacklisting.

No. No, you can’t, and this is why it’s so critical to pass this liberation while there’s still a window to save the region.

Save from what? This region welcomes these new immigrants with open arms.

This "liberation" will not go unchallenged! We have a right to migrate, and we will defend that right to the death! And if it means that we must start banning natives until the region is accepted as our home, so be it!

Maybe your regions shouldn't have tolerated raiders blacklisted for OOC things, and we might have left you alone.

Against
Take an actual look at the liberated regions:
https://www.nationstates.net/page=tag_s ... ed?start=0

There are fifteen on the list.
The first three on that list are a joke, and shouldn't be there.
Greece has a founder.
The last five are dead regions.
Which leaves six of fifteen liberations that you might consider worthwhile.

Liberations mean that the region will always be open to be raided, which makes it difficult to have a healthy community. So I'm against.

You obviously don't know what a liberation does. It saves the region from being refounded. Period.

But it also leaves the region exposed to raiders(like us) and it won't stop any long term damage.

So now you're finally accepting of who you actually are just to make a point? Alright, I suppose the act has gone on long enough.

Ayyy, a liberation that's not "remove the password on x fascist region WITH A FOUNDER because we don't like them"

Liberations can be repealed when the natives are solidly in control.

They wouldn't need any help, the only necessary argument is that they would not neet the liberation anymore. Voting FOR.
