NS Stats are mostly accurate except for a few things, like this nation is capitalist and the death penalty isn't in effect

I'm pretty sure this one's a DOS, or gunning for it.

We do not need to concern ourselves with obvious spam. His posts have been deleted but unfortunately, some remain because posters lack control and can't help themselves.

As a general rule, we don't remove nations on the mere suspicion that they might be trolls. The nation has a stupid name that sounds like he might be here to troll, but until he actually trolls, we're giving him the benefit of the doubt.

The same applies to DOS players. If you know a player is DOS (i.e you know him IRL and saw him create this nation) or you think from his behavior that he's acting like someone you know is DOS, then this is the correct thread for reporting them.

Simply having a dumb name or making dumb posts doesn't make them one of our DOS players. There are lots of immature idiots on the Internet, and we get our share of them.

Kiu Ghesik wrote:is there another megathread for this sort of thing?

Nations with dumb names and dumb posts? No, not really. If you're speculating, we don't need to know. If you're reporting trolling or other rulebreaking, start a thread with links to the relevant posts.
