You know when you have been in the NSUN too long when...

1. You think your UN Ambassador/Staff is a real person

2. When you spend more time in the UN Strangers Bar than anywhere else (even IRL)

3. You feel so strongly about a proposal that if you wheren't debating with people over the otherside of the world you'd punch their head in.

4. You know the familiars to the UN forum more than those in your region.

No! Surely not!? How could that name not fail to strike terror and awe-filled reverence into any U.N. member's heart. ;)

May the blessings of our otters be upon you.

Actually that is a pretty good spread. Flib is the undisputed champion of calling out those silly and grossly illegal proposals, as he nearly has the top 2, 3, and 4 positions beat.

(See, now this is a thread I'll give five stars too ... but only because I'm not having to deal with some kid holding a double ended flashlight.) ;)

Hmmm, Number 9 is definitely a hot topic that I certanly won't want to go into. I'm sure Freud would have a field day on that one.

On the other hand, considering the number of married couples who both play the game, screaming out your significant other's NS nation name during sex might be less onerous as it were.

Actually that is a pretty good spread. Flib is the undisputed champion of calling out those silly and grossly illegal proposals, as he nearly has the top 2, 3, and 4 positions beat.
And actually I'm up to 615 now.

1. You've met 6 or 7 of the other UN forum posters in person...

2. ...and still end up talking about the UN.

3. When reading through contracts you sign, you try to find omfg loopholes, and consider whether claiming you are "FT" might exempt you from paying rent.

4. You get annoyed by press coverage of the Israel-Lebanon thing - the UN can't pass resolutions about specific nations.

5. You think attempting to deploy peacekeepers to the Sudan is a MetaGaming violation.

6. YOU capitalise the first word of every sentence you write.

7. You find nothing inherently odd about the phrase "powerhungry chipmunks".

1. Your favorite debates consists solely of jokes about the Thessadorian ambassador.

17 You wrote a polite feedback there:
http://www.un.org/forms/feedback/english.asp
in order to inform the moderators that the “[Repeal this Resolution]” link had suddenly disappear for every resolutions pages

1: You're a member of jolt, and at least two other UN related offsite forums, and visit them all every day.

Almost. I'm pretty much out on weekends, though.

2: The letters UNOG make sense.

The letters, sure, but...well, I'll just leave it at that. ;)

3: Your nation has been invaded by Omigodtheykilledkenny at least once for not voting his way.

Hasn't happened yet. Kenny and I have agreed on almost allof the proposals up for vote since I joined. And now it's not just Kenny y'all have to worry about. We've got a fricking Death Star (http://z11.invisionfree.com/Antarctic_Oasis/index.php?showtopic=142)!

4: You're in the top 10 posters of the Silly proposals thread.

Oh, shite! I'm number three?!? I haven't even been playing for a year yet! :eek:

5: Your children are introduced to others as "my puppets".

Don't have kids of my own. :p

6: Hack doesn't scare you anymore.

He never did really. He's cute and cuddly -- like a fluffy bunny. :D

7: Your significant other tells you the in-laws are comeing to visit, and you yell "no way, that violates my national soverignty".

Actually, I usually say, "Do I have time to tie one on first?"

8: You've made UN cards, and used them on non NS forums.

Check. :cool:

9: You've screamed out your UN nation's name during sex.

Nope, that's a good way to lose any chance at ever having sex again.

10: You've carefully kept your mouth shut during a repeal debate and not admitted that you voted for the old crappy resolution when it was originally at vote.

Nope, I never vote for anything crappy. ;)

11: You've been delegate of so many different regions, you can't remember them all.

Only been a delegate of one, and it was the one I created when I first joined.

12: You recognise the name WZ Forums.

http://209.85.48.12/6802/45/emo/happy175%5B1%5D.gif

13: You've argued with Discoraversalism in at least 5 different threads about copyrights.

At least. And that's not counting offsite forums. :rolleyes:

14: You suddenly realise you've been a puppet of HotRodia all along.

It wasn't sudden at all. It gradually came to me, and I accepted it willingly.

15: Your boss wants you to organise your co-workers for the work christmas party, and you mutter under your breath about "another useless committee".

Nah, I said that before ever joining NS.


Couldn't help myself, thought some of these up while washing the dishes of all things, and the rest by just looking at thread names for inspiration.

Don't apologise. We need more threads like this. :D

11: You've been delegate of so many different regions, you can't remember them all.


I hear raiders have that problem a lot. Not that I'll admit to knowing anything about that. ;)

Oh, and you forgot:

You ping-pong posts, a la FL, like I did in my previous post in this thread. :)

Oh, shite! I'm number three?!? I haven't even been playing for a year yet! :eek:

You think that's bad, the Silly Proposals thread accounts for almost a quarter of my total posts.

16: You've named a pet after your UN nation.

17: You've gone to a parent and asked for a legality check on your homework.

18: You hear the word circumcision from your doctor and groan "not this shit again".

19: Your UN role play character has a more interesting life than you do.

20: Your boss asks you to present an important report, and you reply you can't because you don't have two endorsements.

21: You are confused because the RL world heritage society refuses to put your outdoor dunny on its list.

22: You've discovered MetaGaming has nothing to do with Diablo.


Ermm, thought up a few more.

The silly proposals thread talk is interesting. Until Hack posted that list, I didn't realise Waterana was still in the top 10. Thought it would have dropped down by now.

He never did really. He's cute and cuddly -- like a fluffy bunny. :DBah.

1. You remember the national sovereigntists setting up the NSO, and thinking "How quaint. I wonder how long that one will last".

2. You suggested the term sovereigntist.

3. You don't just know what UNOG means, you set up the damn thing.

4. You know more intimate details of other UN regulars (without even meeting them) than you do of your own family.

1. You remember the national sovereigntists setting up the NSO, and thinking "How quaint. I wonder how long that one will last".Worse, you not only remember the NSO's short lived precursor you were also a member of it. *points to self*

3. You don't just know what UNOG means, you set up the damn thing.How about this one, you were invited to join the UNOG before their existance became public knowledge.

How about this one, you were invited to join the UNOG before their existance became public knowledge.Pretty sure I fall into that category...

"The Foundation of UNOG was so long ago, you don't remember if you were invited or not."

Pretty sure I fall into that category...

"The Foundation of UNOG was so long ago, you don't remember if you were invited or not."
Fair go, we're only a month off our two-year anniversary. Yeah, older than NSO, UNO, Reclamation, DEFCON, R&R...
But there's still a few things older. I'm pretty sure ACCEL's been around forever, and the Strangers' Bar's still going strong.

[edit] Hmm... times like this I should probably use the Enn account. Looks a bit like a babynation playing the age card when I've only got 11 posts.

Heh... speaking of age...

"You remember when Enodia wrote his rules."

When you schedule a task to start up nationstates in your browser for when you start work.

Not that I have ever done that......Why are you looking at me like that???

19: Your UN role play character has a more interesting life than you do.

... especially since you started trying to make real life comply with PG-13 standards.

You also know you've been in the NSUN too long when ... you read the "Eeewww, necrophilia" proposal and say, "Ah, that sounds like fun", expecting everybody to know what you (innocently) mean.

Or when you do what I actually did: speak to a stranger because you think he's an acquaintance, then realise later he looked familiar because he closely resembled a UN regular's avatar.

Or when words like "bunny" or "Gandalf" or "God" acquire quite different connotations (I told UNOG they should get a rabbit-proof fence).

And, um, Witchcliff, ole dragon -- you know you've been in the NSUN too long when you think about it while you're washing up?

10: You've carefully kept your mouth shut during a repeal debate and not admitted that you voted for the old crappy resolution when it was originally at vote.
So true.

1. You've met 6 or 7 of the other UN forum posters in person...

2. ...and still end up talking about the UN.
Oh, the shame.

*face-palm*

How about this one, you were invited to join the UNOG before their existance became public knowledge.

Ah, but very few people can say, "You were invited into the UNOG and left, and most UNOG members weren't around when you did it."

Ah, but very few people can say, "You were invited into the UNOG and left, and most UNOG members weren't around when you did it."

Yeah. There was this one guy, but it's been so long I can't remember his name. ;)

Yeah. There was this one guy, but it's been so long I can't remember his name. ;)

It was Fris wasn't it?:p

Or when words like "bunny" or "Gandalf" or "God" acquire quite different connotations (I told UNOG they should get a rabbit-proof fence).
Well, the rabbits have escaped UNOG and invaded Reclamation (http://s15.invisionfree.com/Reclamation/index.php?act=idx) now, so maybe you were right about the fence ;).

And, um, Witchcliff, ole dragon -- you know you've been in the NSUN too long when you think about it while you're washing up?
Good point.

I won't cofess what I was doing when the second group came to me :p.

It was Fris wasn't it?:p

I thought he still was hanging out there?

Nope. Not in a year or more. Just didn't have the time.

Nope. Not in a year or more. Just didn't have the time.

Oh, the sacrifices you're made for winning the Game Mod Olympics. ;)

1. When your feeling depressed, all you need to think of is "Mad sheep railguns" and your immediately happy

2. When watching a movie, you think "This would make a good resolution"

3. In an serious debate over Japanese conduct in the Second World War or some such, you realise half way through that your entire points have been rendered null and void because you've been thinking of the Wolfish conventions, and not the Forth Geneva Convention

1: You're a member of jolt, and at least two other UN related offsite forums, and visit them all every day.

Only one, and it's not exclusivly UN

2: The letters UNOG make sense.

I know what it stands for. Not sure what it is.

3: Your nation has been invaded by Omigodtheykilledkenny at least once for not voting his way.

Not yet.

4: You're in the top 10 posters of the Silly proposals thread.

Hmm. Not even close.

5: Your children are introduced to others as "my puppets".

I have mispoken and called other people's children their "puppets"

6: Hack doesn't scare you anymore.

Well, there are scarier things.

7: Your significant other tells you the in-laws are comeing to visit, and you yell "no way, that violates my national soverignty".

I don't have inlaws.

8: You've made UN cards, and used them on non NS forums.

Guilty. Many, many, many, many times.

9: You've screamed out your UN nation's name during sex.

Uhh... Was there a resolution about privacy... :fluffle: :rolleyes:

10: You've carefully kept your mouth shut during a repeal debate and not admitted that you voted for the old crappy resolution when it was originally at vote.

Oooooooh, yeah.

11: You've been delegate of so many different regions, you can't remember them all.

Only been delagate of one.

12: You recognise the name WZ Forums.

Nope.

13: You've argued with Discoraversalism in at least 5 different threads about copyrights.

Not specificly with Discoraversalism.

14: You suddenly realise you've been a puppet of HotRodia all along.

Aren't we all?

15: Your boss wants you to organise your co-workers for the work christmas party, and you mutter under your breath about "another useless committee".

Yup. Not a Christmas party, and not technically co-workers, but yes.

Bah.

oh come on hack you know we wub you ^^

How about if your nation is actually older than Enn, Venerable Libertarians, Ardchoille and Gruenberg, yet you've never been invited to join UNOG?

Let's see, I'm a member of one (two pending) UN forums, although I do not post on them.

I remember WZ Forums.

I have disagreed with Discoraversalism on several copyright fight-nights.

Never been invaded by Omigodtheykilledkenny.

Never actually posted on Silly proposals thread, although I've read it pretty extensively.

I don't have kids.

I don't have in-laws.

No UN cards.

No sex-yells "La viva la Tarmsden!"

Plenty of votes for repeals of resolutions I've supported and plenty of vocal support for such repeal efforts, hoping silently no one is creepy enough to have my voting records!

Hack's just kind of weird. The creepy, over-bearing specter thing wore off quite a while ago.

Hotrodia may rule me, but I haven't quite embraced that ultimate totality yet.

I've certainly said "another worthless committee" on plenty of conference calls and in board meetings! I wonder if my groups are violating the personal sovereignty to define morality according to individual culture and historical tendencies blah blah blah

Now, to add something to the mix, you know you've been in the UN way too long when you represent more constituents than the ambassadors of the real world combined and almost doubled!

I have to go. My ten and a half billion constituents are calling!

How about if your nation is actually older than Enn, Venerable Libertarians, Ardchoille and Gruenberg, yet you've never been invited to join UNOG?
Well, you do have to be noticed. If all else fails, just ask what you have to do to join. It worked before.
Anyway, the original group were all from the December 03 - Feb 04 crowd. I'm the only one from there in your grouping.

Well, you do have to be noticed. If all else fails, just ask what you have to do to join. It worked before.Whatchoo talkin' 'bout, Enn?

Whatchoo talkin' 'bout, Enn?

Psh. Not even I had to beg. (Shutup, I know it took 3 nominations before I got in)

I don't think I'm an old enough fella to write anything new here...

I was going to say, "When you know not to be offended/surprised/pissed off/taken aback by OMGTKK anymore," or something. Heh.... -sigh-

Oh, I've got one!

"When you know that the AT VOTE debates are futile."

1: You're a member of jolt, and at least two other UN related offsite forums, and visit them all every day.

Yup. Jolt and 7 offsite forums.

2: The letters UNOG make sense.

They make perfect sense to me.

3: Your nation has been invaded by Omigodtheykilledkenny at least once for not voting his way.

Nope. Not yet anyway.

4: You're in the top 10 posters of the Silly proposals thread.

No. Read it, but rarely post in it.

5: Your children are introduced to others as "my puppets".

Kiv and I have not, as of yet, introduced our children as "our puppets".

6: Hack doesn't scare you anymore.

Hack never scared me.

7: Your significant other tells you the in-laws are comeing to visit, and you yell "no way, that violates my national soverignty".

Not yet, but it's bound to happen at some point.

8: You've made UN cards, and used them on non NS forums.

Nope.

9: You've screamed out your UN nation's name during sex.

Um....no. His nation's name on the other hand......What? There's a reasonable explaination. Really, there is.

10: You've carefully kept your mouth shut during a repeal debate and not admitted that you voted for the old crappy resolution when it was originally at vote.

Nope. Haven't been around long enough to do so.

11: You've been delegate of so many different regions, you can't remember them all.

Nope. Never been delegate.

12: You recognise the name WZ Forums.

Nope.

13: You've argued with Discoraversalism in at least 5 different threads about copyrights.

I make it a point to stay away when I see Disco and copyright in the same thread.

14: You suddenly realise you've been a puppet of HotRodia all along.

I am no one's puppet.

15: Your boss wants you to organise your co-workers for the work christmas party, and you mutter under your breath about "another useless committee".

No.

Nope. Still don't scare me. :p

You're too personable to be scary Hack.

Bah!

Bah!

Well, you don't scare me either. Maybe a little when I was a newbie, but not at all now.

Having said that however, I do feel a bit guilty that the line I wrote in the start post has people declaring their non fear of you and making fluffy bunny comments, so feel I should do something to make it up to you.

First off, remember you will always have undisputed fear from newbies and rulebreakers, not to mention...

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v379/Kyronia/1cd99ddd.jpg

Hope that makes you feel a bit better :p.

Well, you're a little bluer than I thought, but you look more look a cold and wet demon dog than an undead creepy-thingy!

Grr. Argh.

Perhaps it should be "...that people are surprised if you say you're not in UNOG".

...you actually have a proper office in the UN Building.
...you've seen at least half the delegate's shoes on the table in the debating chamber.
...you can name about 25 delegates' favourite tipples (online and in rl).
...most of your posts are no longer in debates.
...you've orchestrated or been involved in a 'tag campaign'.
...your first assumption of a new member is that they're a puppet.
...you end arguments with 'sod this, I'm invading Chechnya.'

Anyway, I now know who I'll leave in charge of getting around not paying the tv license....;)

1. You remember the national sovereigntists setting up the NSO, and thinking "How quaint. I wonder how long that one will last".

...you were told that it was a waste of time to advocate national sovereignty in the UN. I don't hear folks saying that around here anymore, for some reason. ;)

1: You're a member of jolt, and at least two other UN related offsite forums, and visit them all every day.

Yep. A few, here and there. :cool:

2: The letters UNOG make sense.

3: Your nation has been invaded by Omigodtheykilledkenny at least once for not voting his way.

4: You're in the top 10 posters of the Silly proposals thread.

5: Your children are introduced to others as "my puppets".

No, but if I had children...

6: Hack doesn't scare you anymore.

Hack never scared me.

7: Your significant other tells you the in-laws are comeing to visit, and you yell "no way, that violates my national soverignty".

I have been tempted to do that sort of thing, on occasion. :cool:

8: You've made UN cards, and used them on non NS forums.

I made the original set.

9: You've screamed out your UN nation's name during sex.

Um...no. Ew.

10: You've carefully kept your mouth shut during a repeal debate and not admitted that you voted for the old crappy resolution when it was originally at vote.

Nah. I voted against most of the earlier stuff just like the newer stuff.

11: You've been delegate of so many different regions, you can't remember them all.

I'm still working on that.

12: You recognise the name WZ Forums.

Recognize? It's branded into my memory.

13: You've argued with Discoraversalism in at least 5 different threads about copyrights.

No, usually it was about his behavior.

Well it was kinda obvious from the beginning...

15: Your boss wants you to organise your co-workers for the work christmas party, and you mutter under your breath about "another useless committee".

Yeah, done that.

*snip*


You've been in the NSUN too long when...

You get made a moderator. :p

You get made a moderator.
Yeah, done that.

Yeah, done that.

Funny how these things happen, ain't it?

Did that before most of the posters in this thread started playing.

Heh.

13: You've argued with Discoraversalism in at least 5 different threads about copyrights.

That's more a sign of recent activity, it just makes it seem like you've been here too long :)

Pretty much.

2: The letters UNOG make sense.

4: You're in the top 10 posters of the Silly proposals thread.
No, but I can't be far off.


5: Your children are introduced to others as "my puppets".
I don't have children, but it's what I call some people.

6: Hack doesn't scare you anymore.
He in no way resembles a spider, so no, and never did.

7: Your significant other tells you the in-laws are comeing to visit, and you yell "no way, that violates my national soverignty".
I'm not a sovereigntist, and I like my family.

8: You've made UN cards, and used them on non NS forums.
I would, but all the good ones have been done.

9: You've screamed out your UN nation's name during sex.

1: You're a member of jolt, and at least two other UN related offsite forums, and visit them all every day.
Yes.

2: The letters UNOG make sense.
United Nations Octogenarian Group? United Nations Obsolete Gun Owners? United Nations Original Gangstas?

3: Your nation has been invaded by Omigodtheykilledkenny at least once for not voting his way.
More often than not, I vote the same way Kenny does so it hasn't been an issue.

4: You're in the top 10 posters of the Silly proposals thread.
No.

5: Your children are introduced to others as "my puppets".
No.

I am a puppet of Optischer.

15: Your boss wants you to organise your co-workers for the work christmas party, and you mutter under your breath about "another useless committee".
I've thought it. Not about the christmas party but about committees at work in general.

More often than not, I vote the same way Kenny does so it hasn't been an issue.True. And let's not forget all that super-advanced space weaponry you got up in yours. :p

True. And let's not forget all that super-advanced space weaponry you got up in yours. :p
We try not to discuss that publicly. It upsets the Ecopoeians.

He is the one who brings terror in the night.Rawr. Vindication.

I miss WZ Forums. I still remember his first and, as far as I know, only post on jolt.He posted twice, actually. And both (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=9644119&postcount=440) were in the same thread (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=9655495&postcount=577).

And amusingly contradictory.

He would immediately go to the proposal list and approve everything. He has moved, he's in The New Breed of ECW (http://www.nationstates.net/03140/page=display_region/region=the_new_breed_of_ecw) now.

You bump this thread in a fit of nostalgia.

... your friends wonder what you mean when you say someone "swears like a dolphin sailor."

... you refer to Hooters as "Thessadoria."

... you ask your regular hooker if she knows the "Karmicaria position."

... a news report on military action in Chechnya makes you wonder, "What has the NSUN done now?"

... you casually recall to acquaintances "that time I defenestrated that jerk" and they call the cops on you.

... anytime abortion comes up during a conversation, you hysterically point your finger and shriek, "Don't go opening that can of worms again!"

... a brawl breaks out at a party or a club and you merely sigh and mutter, "Damn Kennyites."

You have puppets as well known as your original nation. Not sure that applies to me yet, but...

It's been a year since you posted, and people still know who you are.

Ben Kareth (Lord Evif's legislative assistant) stands and bows to the Wolfish representative. "It's good to see you back."

When you can't be arsed to log out of your newly created puppets to post on the " You've been in the NSUN too long when..." thread

When you try to join your model UN, but realise you'd only want to represent your NS nation!

When you've got more puppet nations than you have years of age.

When you've got more puppet nations than you have years of age.

Shit. Hadn't thought of it that way before...

When you've got more puppet nations than you have years of age.

I've let a lot of puppets die recently. Does that mean I'm getting younger?

When you burst out laughing and your significant other asks"What has Kenny posted now?" :eek:

...a news report on the RL United Nations comes on the TV, and your first thought is, "The UN? I thought they burned that place down?!"

...you live in constant fear that South Park will serve you with a cease and desist order (www.nationstates.net/omigodtheykilledkenny).

...you were, however, relieved to discover that this year's April Fools' Day didn't involve a lawsuit from the Pentecostal church (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Assemblies_of_God_Fellowship).

...you refer to April 1 as "Doomsday."

...you refer to artichokes as "modnazis."

...you actually remember when it was still called the NSUN.

(only passed once, though.)

Ha! I've actually done that too! http://209.85.48.12/6802/45/emo/scared011.gif

...you can remember every single one of your government officials, but not your RL ones.

...you don't consider a troll to be some ugly thing living under a bridge.

...you've considered blowing up the General Assembly on more than one occassion because they passed a resolution you loathe with a passion.

...you never look at Smurfs the same way again.

...you realize that the NSUN makes more sense than the RLUN.

When you get an email notification for a jolt thread that makes you think "Huh, NS. Really should get out of my 16mth vacation mode sometime."

...after one year, you still think the WA is the UN.

...you've considered blowing up the General Assembly on more than one occassion because they passed a resolution you loathe with a passion.

Luckily, we don't have to worry about that anymore...

RLUN needs some enforcer gnomes

When you've been defenestrated more times than the ambassador from Putzi.

Zarquon sneaks up behind the ambassador, grabs them, and throws them out the window.

Now you've been defenstrated more times than Putzi. :p

...you remember picker and anti-picker.

... your response to a joke by another player is to create a puppet nation based on it.

...your region is clogged with so many of these joke puppets you've considered imposing a Republican-esque "immigration reform" policy.

...you see dragons conducting political discussions and don't think of it as odd.
...seeing an Ambassador thrown out of a window doesn't concern you.
...you spend six months drafting a resolution, but can't be bothered to finish your medical degree.

...when it takes a week to notice that this thread title is wrong

...when it takes a week to notice that this thread title is wrong

No, that's a "You know you haven't been in the NSUN long enough..."

In other words, check the date on this thread's first post, it predates the WA.

Nah. You've been on so long you're used to seeing "UN" and don't notice it's (now) wrong for a week.

TRADITIONNNNNN!

The thread was started by a well-regarded former member in the lost days of innocence when the NS UN existed.

Comrades, will we let callow youths, drunk with their anthem of "Change!", wipe from existence the structure we have built through aeons of blood, sweat and ...

*remembers she's not debating, if you could call it that*

Orright, I'll update the thread title if enough people can be bothered to say they want it done.

*snickers*

I don't think he was even asking. Please don't.

...when you actually know what to post for a thread like this, as opposed to me.

... when you write proposals anticipating the traditional Ursine objection.

... when you know what the traditional Ursine objection is.

... when your headquarters gets burned to the ground to make way for the WA ?

...you have a t-shirt which reads, "I survived the destruction of the UN Building and all I got is this stupid shirt."

TRADITIONNNNNN!


OOC: You've put that song in my head now. :tongue: Bum da da da da, bum da da da da.

...you're sorely tempted to mark students' papers down for "RL references."

...the room grows awkwardly quiet when the subject of whaling is brought up.

... you address a group of RL friends as My Esteemed Colleagues

...You keep all of your written work to a maximum of 3500 characters long.

...when all you can think about while you're away from your computer is what the latest vote is on the current proposal.

...when you've wished you RL desk would transform into a 1/8th scale frigate like your WA character's desk does.

If you remember our (NationStates) UN well from the start, then you're a veteran.

....you've passed UN/WA Resolutions with 8 different nations.

....you've passed UN/WA Resolutions with 8 different nations.

Now you're just bragging. Go ahead rub it in, old timer. :tongue:
:D

...while in American History class, you figured you should report Calhoun to Moderation for godmodding ("nullification")

...It took you a further five minutes to realize the difference between RL and NS.

...You posted it in Moderation anyway.

...You're waiting for some aimless WA member to post as "John C. Calhoun".
