What was the cringiest thing you did as a new NS player?

[Hagston]

Most, if not all of us, have something we did as a new NationStates player, that we look back on and think "....why??"

What's your story?

[Majima Kensetsu]

I named my first nation here "Zion-Valor", which might not sound THAT bad at first.....but then there's the fact that this nation wasn't even in the Levant during the RP I made it for, the land where the name "Zion" originated. It was basically a dollar store Russia. In the social media platform that I and some other fellas came from, we now refer to this nation as "Tvembov" thanks to a recommendation I made.

I was too nice to the other users.

[The American Anarchist Empire]

I had no clue what this game was, thought it was some nation generator and because I was tired/thought I could change my name, I chose this name and I'm stuck with it.

[The Reformed American Republic]

My first nation had a cringy name.

[Chan Island]

My First Nation name was a frustrated like 6th attempt at one, and I this ended up with Annihilators of Chan Island. Not the annihilators, no that would have been too sensible. And of Chan island, I preceded to make found until like 3 years later.

Just embarrassing really. But hey, now I have 2 legendary cards so I suppose it paid off haha.

Forgive me NS players, for I have sinned in the past, by committing multiple sins of cringe, when I was young.

>I have used NS stats when judging nations on Forum 7, not caring if they used them or not.
>I have also posted lots of one liners, with not so much efforts.
>Nation wasn't exactly interesting, just some boring liberalism thingy.
>There were also inconsistencies in lore.
>RP posts were lower quality.
>And it was like without flaws.

I have confessed and I want to repent and seek redemption and forgiviness.

I did a lot of cringy stuff on this site back in my rookie days, but probably the most cringiest thing I did was submitting a god-awful idea to the technical section of N&B.

My name, I didn’t fully understand the meaning of pretitle.

If you look up "The Yellow Rose on the Imperial Garden" on NS, then you'd know

[Western Fardelshufflestein]

I posted waaaaaay too many times in a row in F7...and I had my characters do a bunch of crazy stuff before I solidified their personalities that I definitively disown. Most of the funni stuff I did in F7 last year is not canon, because, while I do still have elements of a meme nation in WF, a lot of it has gotten more serious and realistic. Let's just say that, while I still shitpost, I've worked to put more effort into my posts most of the time.

I'm still proud of the meme thread, though.

Dear God, what kind of profound madness could have possibly convinced you to do that?!

Being a cringe one-line summerposter with a four-letter alliance. At least now I've moved on A LOT from those days.

[Countesia]

i was unironically an ancap on nationstates before this account

[Aureumterra III]

Whatever the fuck this was

In a way if I manage to avoid cringing to death, I can appreciate how I’ve improved as a writer (and gotten better at English)

Guilty for being part of alliances but idk, I like having people to talk too. Mostly i'm just an observer in all of them apart from two, which includes one i made myself.

Its hard to find anything on International Incidents that interests me, its all civil wars.

I can relate to the one-liner stuff on a spiritual level.

Probably this nation, and a ton of other nations that are now fortunatley deleted

oh my god the memories

[Cornfederacy of Corn]

I made a bunch of countries in the first few months, then accepted to keep my friends' nations after they stopped playing. Now I have 9 different accounts that I have to keep track of.

I attribute it to early onset mental illness.
