to just have simple, two or three step wars, in which there is so little information and fighting to make it remotely fun? it seems ridiculous that for entertainment, they say i attack you and destroy your navy, capitulate, or my magic commandoes will destroy your government.

what in their mind makes them believe that another human will accept this fake attack in which events so unrealistic occur and are without casualty as well, no matter how much the forces number balance is?

try to tell me this so i can understand their mentality a bit better, becuase even i was not so ridiculously un-urbane in war-fare in nationstates.

The feeling of ultimate power?

ah, yes, that, but then again, when a 6 million population nation declares war upon a 1.3 billion population nation, i doubt they can think they have ultimate power.

Just stay away from International Incidents and you won't have to worry about it.

You can't understand them... don't even try.

One persons annoyance is another persons fun. They think it's fun, if they have others that interact with them of the like why should it matter? As long as they dont bust into your threads and start spraying feces around why try and understand them? Do as I do, as long as they dont bother me, I dont bother them. Relieves alot of pressure from people.

Same goes for the people that peruse the forums and claim to 'rp' when 90% of their posts are telling people they cant have this or that tech because it ruins the plot giving parts of a story...... It's all about fun, nobody has fun when others force 'realism' on people that dont want to play in it ;).

I've lost where the point to this thread was going (Curse my Aussie mind) so I think I'll finish this with, ignore them, if they dont break into your threads then there's no reason to acknowledge them.

i usually dont bother them either, just want to know why they see it as so much fun. when theres so many doing it, its hard to ignore.
