Bug?

As my problem isn't covered in and of the stikies here, I guess that means I can bitch about it here...

I joined a few months ago and was presented with a simple enough Issue; Should Democracy be Compulsory? I chose the answer I felt was appropriate and logged out. Returning the next day, I found that it hadn't gone through. After a few days of [legislation pending], I said the hell with it and forgot all about Nation States. Well, I'm back to take over my little Empire, and I've returned to the exact bloody issue. If this ain't a bug, then I simply don't know what is.

3. Issues not updating: This used to be a common bug, but is now rare. Nations find that their populations are not increasing and that issues sit forever waiting to be either dismissed or have their legislaction enacted. If they endorse another nation, their endorsements vanish the next day. They are not included in their region's list of all nations. If you are affected by this bug, you can manually fix it by changing regions, then back. This works because the fundamental problem is that your region has dropped your nation from its list of members, and this procedure adds you back. As mentioned, this bug is rare, and generally only crops up in very populous regions (e.g. the Pacific regions).

Well...hell. Sorry all. Guess I missed it... Next time I'll make sure to double check the bloody FAQ before making a fool of myself.

Live and learn. Don't sweat it too much. :)

I've been a Moderator for a year now, and I still make a fool of myself from time-to-time. :D

Quite right. It's his job to make a fool of himself, so we let it slide. When I make a fool of myself, however... ;)

MOD's making fools of themselves. Now I don't feel so bad about making a fool of myself. We all do it from time to time. Sometimes we get too impatient to sift through all that is presented to us in the FAQ to bother and simply ask. I don't see anything wrong with that.
