Puppet Question

If I had a friend who played NS, and then he gave up and gave me total control of his nation, would that nation be a puppet of my older one?

Or would that nation be totally different than a puppet?

Because I know that puppets cannot be used in a RP with the "mother nation", but would this friend's nation that is now mine be?

Could I use that nation in a RP? :confused:

Your freinds nation would be classed as a puppet unless you give it away. I don't belive you can use it in an rp with your mother nation in anything other then an ooc manor

We don't moderate RP. Do whatever the heck you want.

I used my Puppet Islamic Tadjikistan (and another puppet Communist Tadjikistan) in one RP, offcourse i didnt use the poulation of the puppets, i just divided the population of my main nation (this one).

Whether you created the nation or it was given to you does not matter. If you control two nations you can use only one (population) in an RP. Expect offcourse in the situation i explained.
I'd say take the biggest one and use it as main nation. Keep the rest incase things go wrong and your main nation gets destroyed.

I thought people did moderate RP? :confused:Other players might yell at you for god-modding, or whatever using puppets would fall under, but the moderators stay out of it.

How come some threads get locked and stuff?

I honestly thought moderators banned godmodding nations and stuff...

We ban godmodders who flame and spam and otherwise break the TOS. We also ban other RPs who flame and spam and break the TOS. Godmodding is not against the TOS, it's just ill advised.

Well, my question spawned from my friend joining NS, got his pop up to 100 million, and then he tried to RP but he didn't like it. So he told me if I wanted it I could have his nation.

That's why I was wondering...I was going to have a little civil war where I try to take it over...ya know, to make things 'official' like.

Thanks a bunch for helping, Unfree People and the rest of you. :p
