Forum only accounts?

Is it possible to get one of my nations turned into a forum only account? I'm guessing that probably this is reserved for mods/ admin, but I thought it couldn't hurt to ask.

There are a few exceptions from the early days, and for the admin.

Blau is a forum only account. I think that it migh have been one of the beta nations. Some other nations that I've seen like that as well.

What if a newer mod were to request it?

Well, quite a few mods had them at first, Demoness, TJ, Amerigo, and Ineptia all had forum-only accounts. However, Demoness and Amerigo resigned, and Ineptia dropped it because switching back and forth was too much of a pain.

New mods might be granted a forum only account, but they were largely granted to keep RP and Modding separate.

That still leaves me curious.

Blau was founded a day before NS opened, and has no nation attached. Is Blau a Beta nation remnant?
