The Nationstates Forum, in a lot of respects, is very different from the other RP'ing forum, International Incidents. In here, you'll find more individual RP's, fantasy RP's, space RP's, diplomatic RP's, etc. There are a few similarities, such as wars, alliances, and that sort of thing.

The Many Kinds of RP's in NS
Good RP's
Fantasy RP's-
An Inquiry into the Nature of Vampirism (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=397032)
Another thread that isn't finished, but is a very good read. The author is Akaton, which has proven to be a very good RP'er in fantasy aspects. Also noted is Tarlachia, who is also known for their amazing fantasy RP's.

The Moment of Silence... (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=375470)
This RP isn't finished yet, but Tarlachia and Reformed Velmora are the main RP'ers in this thread. They are two of the best RP'ers in the NS Forum, of Fantasy RP's.

Assington Vampires III: Underworld (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=357294)
Assington's RP is well organized, describing each of the characters in the beginning, so that everyone else can understand what is going on. This RP is very well written.

Xenos Flare (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=370173)
The author is Kaukolastan. This RP, which also includes Imitora, is another of the extremely well written fantasy stories.

War RP's-
Dissension of a Weary Core (Steel Butterfly Civil War: Part 3) (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=334413)
Steel Butterfly is one of the best RP'ers that we've seen here in the NationStates forum. Also noted is Tappee and Canada-Germany, who RP'ed this thread with Steel Butterfly. If you're interested in getting ideas for your own civil war, I suggest reading this one.

Diplomacy-Related RP's-
Coronation, Carnivale, and Chicanery (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=358706)
Dread Lady Nathicana is a political superpower in the very least. Her diplomacy skills are almost impossible to match, whether she wants to admit it or not. This thread is a definite read for those of you who are new to the NS forum, or the game itself.

Space RP's-
Rock the Casbah (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=393259)
This RP isn't finished yet, but its a good read so far. Lunatic Retard Robots is the author of this Space RP, as he is known as one of the better space RP'ers in NS.

Horror RP's-
Realm of the Risen II: Angel's Holocaust (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=7827049)
Another RP by Steel Butterfly. This is the second RP in the series. Horror RP's tend to come around in spurs, in the NS forum. This thread is a very good read!

Western RP's-
A Saloon Story (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=382301)
One of the few Western RP's out there. It's a very interesting read and stacked with some amazing RP'ers.

Miscellaneous RP's-
Ladies of Nationstates Underwear Auction (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=304232)

I am deeply humbled, Euroslavia to have been only one of two mentioned in your fantasy RP section... However, I would like to point out that there are quite a few others beside myself who perhaps deserve the mention more than myself.

On another note, I have to say that Change of Blood wasn't exactly the best RP I've been in, in my honest opinion. It was full of some problems we had...

Anyways, here's a few threads that I believe deserve better mention. Some are still in the works...:

Also, there have been some story threads by independent RPers that have been quite good as well. One of them is actually mine, and I take pride in how well its developing, despite it still being quite early on in the storyline. I'm not trying to patronize myself, but I can recognize a good story if I see one.

Here's a few I've seen, or am watching move along now. Like above, some are still in the works...:

Don't worry, it's not. (Not that I have anything against salons, of course. :cool: )

Euro, I think you can remove the "tell the story behind your flags thread". It's quite dead. And outdated.

Good thread by the way, very helpful!

I was hoping that others would take notice of it, and post in it, because it is a really good idea, but alas, that didn't happen. I'll remove it.

I asked the admin for a sports forum...they thought it wouldn't get used much...heh.

I think the other stickies should be linked to in this one and themselves de-stickied and have this be the NS Consolidated Sticky. Or create a new NS Consolidated Sticky.

I talked to Frisbeeteria about it not too long ago, and he said that we were going to take a break from condensing stickies, for a few weeks.

Edit: Nevertheless, I put all of the current stickies into the first post, in case a moderator feels like remodeling the NS forum. :)

I am wondering if there is a thread to talk about our NS government. And for a suggestion when we pick our issues: an "other" where we type in something that is not mentioned that we prefer.

I've been playing this game for a little over two weeks, now, and I've noticed a lot of nations are modeled after futuristic/modern times numbers. You have GDPs in the billions, populations in the hundreds of millions, and steel water vessels that somehow do not sink. (You even have these strange boats that, after sinking, can come back up with no harm to the boat whatsoever. Truly remarkable)

Basically, my nation is an elfin fantasy nation set in a world I made up for a set of stories I'm writing. My nation's technology, society, architecture, etc. are a blend of medieval and ancient times. I know demographics and economics were different in ancient times, and I was wondering if you may have a source I could use to create a factbook for a nation that, ordinarily, wouldn't have even invented the idea of GDP or accumulated the sheer wealth and industrial strength of a modern nation?

What kind of RPs go in here?

Nationstates is more of a character RP, fantasy RP, type forum that is more focused on developing individual characters, rather than a nation as a whole... though nation RP's still go on in here.

So is there any real difference between the rps (besides the ones listed by you just listed)?

The roleplays in Nationstates tend to be more detailed than the ones in International Incidents. Descriptive words/sentences are used much more often in the Nationstates forum. (Not to say that International Incidents isn't detailed.)

]The NationStates Conspiracy[/SIZE][SIZE=7
Am I the only one, who thinks there are too many Delegates in the UN. How can so many Nations control one world and decide on one issue. There must be a higher group, a group of 10-20 nations who are secretly decide everything that goes on in NationStates. I cant belive I havnt seen this conspiracy theory posted anywhere else in the forums, am I the only one¬! It makes perfect sense! The NationStates Conspiracy is first addressed by Upminstion, and we are all being controlled!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - UPMINSTION. :eek: :eek: Announcements

Actually there are about thirty of us...err...them, and they congregate here (http://s6.invisionfree.com/UN_Old_Guard/index.php?act=idx).

For future reference, you might want to try to keep your in-game conspiracy theories to the Gameplay forum where they belong...
