I think you should all vote and make conquering legal.Furthermore you should set up the game where you have to have a password to enter and exit a region.Say nation A conquers nation B,C,and D.What is the point of conquering them if they can just leave?If they want to leave they fight for their freedom on the UN forum with an unrelated UN member as a watcher to make sure no one is playing un-fairly.And why can nations ignore a war?If the REAL USSR bombed the REAL US,the US can't just drop an ignore bomb so why should the game be set up that way?I know I am not UN and I know that I have been involved in some anti-UN movments but I think these proposals will benefit many nations.Please consider my plea.

Keebland, feel free to design your own game however you like. I hope you give it away like Max Barry does, so that lots of people can enjoy it for free.

In the meantime, your suggestions involve game mechanics changes, and nobody in the UN can do anything about them. If you want game changes, post in Technical. I can safely predict that they won't happen. They're saving all that kind of thing for NS 2. Which won't be free.

BTW, why aren't you in the UN if you want to make changes? All you have to do is click a link and respond to an email. If you're not willing to accept the same risks we do, why should we do ANYTHING for you?

Because I do not agree with the UN,I am trying to establish a Global Council where every region leader speaks for his/her region.I am waiting for the best moment.I am also speaking for more than 1 person when I came up with that idea.

Why should the UN do something that you want, even though you Were on Anti-UN stuff? So, the UN should forget all that, and even mention what you want? I don't think soi

Moved from the UN forum:

There exist ways to war and battle in game already.

Passwords will not be required for leaving regions.

Am I in charge of all the Tech? Close enough.

Why not? Because this has been discussed before and vetoed. We do not want to enable nations to take others captive. We feel that it will make this game less enjoyable for the majority of players.

The best way not to become a mod is to ask to be a mod.

Read All about Moderators, Plus How to Become One (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=102087)

Start by reading the last 10 pages or so of tech threads, all of the stickies and announcements in here. Then, hang out and read all of the threads in here for about a month or so, and then start offering helpful advice.

Edit: This is advice on how to be helpful in Tech, not on how to be a mod.

If the REAL USSR bombed the REAL US,the US can't just drop an ignore bomb so why should the game be set up that way?
Because the real USSR cant make 281252378621 troops with n00kes and forcefields and pwn teh wold.

basically. Some players are totally unrealistic in this game.

bascially,. you can kind of conquerr nations. Before going to war decide what the wager is. ie: if i win this war i get your nation and viceversa. there is more about this in a sticky somewhere. im not sure where but somewhere.
most wars choose to ignore this though. If people did conquer a nation then 9 out of 10 times it would have been deated within 2 months. A RP victory is more of a badge of honour than anything

In order not to not talk too negatively about this topic I chose not to quote you, no offence.

I am against the title of this thread more then anything.


Either be for/against something and at least commit [join the UN] or simply mill about and don't pretend to be passionate on a subject.
