The argument I’ve heard against muting is that it prevents illegitimate governments in GCRs and founderless regions from abusing power. But the state of gameplay at present (and for the vast foreseeable future) precludes the necessity to assist anti-coup actors and defenders.
I would also be very against turning the RMBs into a kind of mini forum. It simply doesn’t fit the purpose and style.
Perhaps a kind of news section, similar to NS++? It would be near identical to dispatches, but you subscribe to newspapers and the results are formatted like a newspaper would be. Sort of like a news aggregator (and maybe notifier as well).

That would be fine?
I specified in my last post what I was thinking. Don't take my words out of context, thanks.

This simply does not seem possible.

Or they could just do what many regions already do, without needing any changes to the game, which is get offsite forums of their own for this purpose...

Any progress on this? This seems like a good idea; I'm in an RP region where all RP is done on the RMB and it gets chaotic when it goes fast and it's still hard to read even at normal pace (1 per every couple hours) since RMB posts can exceed 400 words (and usually do).
It could even be an opt-in feature; for regions who want to keep the traditional nature of the RMB, they can stay opted out of the system, and for regions like the one I mentioned before they can opt in to help people organize their roleplay and allow people to keep up with RPs they participate in.

I'm curious, why do you have a makeshift RP forum in the RMB when Nationstates already has dedicated RP forums?
Your reasons may very well be useful for the forum-development portion of this NS revamp.

I can't speak for them, but a lot of regions do have RMB RPs, and one of the main reasons I'm aware of is that there are a lot of players who participate solely in the RMB (and polls, etc), not on the site forums, offsite forums, Discord etc. Such players may not be aware of an RP existing if it happened on the site forums, and even if they were aware participation could be reduced as the forums aren't as obviously tied into the gameside region page, with notifications for likes/quotes, and are instead almost like their own separate site.

Would add that NS forums don't show up well on mobile phones.

The solution here would be to modernize the forums rather than build another forum in the RMB, and perhaps actively motivate players to migrate their RPs to the forums if they'd like to make use of forum tools and features rather than have the code monkeys reinvent the wheel.
If you want to throw some suggestions for the forum, here is the Communications (Forums) Tech development thread.
If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless. Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you. | Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’James 1:26-27, Matthew 7:21-23

For those of us that get a lot of telegrams it is common to get many that need a response but can't be responded to right away. Being able to keep the little dot so we don't forget about them would be helpful.

You could just let players enter the name of the nation they want telegrams forwarded to. The downside of this is players malicious forwarding telegrams to a nation they don't own, but that surely isn't going to be more common than unwanted spam as it is.Frisbeeteria wrote:We don't have any designation that any nation is the "main" nation.
