The UN is beginning to suck.

I am a delegate so I have more than one vote to my name. And there is never a resolution to put it on. What is with this drought.

Because no delegates bother to do anything, there just have the endorsements because they created their own region.

Go through the proposal page and endorse the proposals that you agree with. The UN does suck..... that's why you have to stick with it and transform it more towards a model that reflects either your values.... or a true sense of fairness (assuming fairness isn't one of your values). It's an uphill battle.... but allowing UN power grabs to occur without fighting the good fight is just ethically wrong.

I dont like the UN but this post was so simplistic in form that i was very much tempted to vote no

This is a probably dumb thing to do, but I agree with John Marat.

*cringes* On just this issue!

I haven't been a member long, but I see the problem being a lack of delegate action. If it were not for the game mechanics limitation and the aforementioned delegate inaction, it would be possible to solve this through resolution. But much like the dog chasing his own tail, no one wins in the end.

Well considering people post this type of message every time we don't have a proposal it seams a bit odd to say that it is 'beginning to suck'.

What actually happend it used to be fast and effcient with new issues and now it really incumbent. Probably a true reflection of the UN :lol:

So it has got worse, I wasn't sure whether it was the UN or just me not paying attention before.

I don't think it has got worse, at least worse then when I first joined. We always have dry spells and stupid posts (not in reference to yours)

Tell me, do we still have regular frying-paings?

in a way... no it not getting worse... unfortunatly, it's not getting better either. the way I figure the game mechanics work, it's better to vote for something because there is no consiquences to having a badly written, poorly thought out proposal passing. As long it has a "feel good" title and purpose, people will vote for it.

Because they know their nation will get the "good" ticks in the appropriate catagories.
