I wish to start a group of older nations 500+ pop to be a junior member. 1 billion + pop to be a senior member. only senors can hold office. Ivite only for nations under 500 population
1) help the new nations settle in.
2) Stop them making mistakes like BFTE.
3) Help rebuild nations.
4) Help protect nations.
5) Help nations that are unresonably attacked.

They will be called The Protecters.

I would be glad to join as one of the leaders in protecting nations. Director of Defense? Something along those lines.

Sure anyone else we could have elections for a leader every week. You could be in charge of defence products. This week we'll have no president.
I can be minister for Peacekeeping.
14-11-2003, 21:43
without reason.. or without a somewhat good reason.
14-11-2003, 21:43
Any reason you have to have that much pop? I mean, I understand that those players would be more familiar to the game, but there are plenty of responsible nations with under that amount of pop. who would be willing to help. I for one would.

(You mean like you orbitally blasting any nation into "glass". Oh and your nova laser can't be blocked :lol: )

:oops: Well, BFTE did have reason to be glassed. The Nova Cannon can be blocked with ion weapons or very advanced SDI. I said that no SDI system BFTE coulkd have at that age would've been able to stop them.

Yes, I'd take up an administrative role. Put me where you need me. I wouldn't mind being Supreme Life Commander of all, but otherwise, I can be Negotiator in Chief, or some such. I can be quite persuasive, and the most successful battle is the one that isn't fought.
14-11-2003, 21:59
Correct, but some people prefer not to use that philosophy.

This is true, which is why it is a good idea for even the best negotiator to have a large army to fall back on.

My population is over 1 billion, wouldn't that make me a senior member?
14-11-2003, 22:17
Yes It would I supose?
14-11-2003, 22:44
Whew!! Because Aust offered me the chance to become a junior member :roll:
14-11-2003, 22:46
Unless he has another reason I don't see why not.
14-11-2003, 22:49
i would like to join this group. I may not meet the requirements, but I would like it's protection. Please respond to this.
Actually, could you keep me on a "waiting list" until I get 500 million pop?
14-11-2003, 22:51
You need protection or, would you like to join?

15-11-2003, 01:05
As soon as I meet the population requirement, and whatever else you require, I would be glad to lend my nation to your worthy cause.
15-11-2003, 01:29
You could join as a junior member if you'd like.

15-11-2003, 01:38
Really? Would that be allowed? If so, TOR is only too happy to join this group, and to help where it can. Military muscle is a tad lacking, but there are sure to be other things we could do.
15-11-2003, 01:41
Well we need some negotiators. Talk to the newer players if they're doing something dumb or that will get them in trouble. And if you need our help feel free to telegram me.

I hate to sound cruel, but I think BFTE should promise not to be a total idiot in future, if he wishes to get rebuilt. I've got no problem helping him out, but I DO have a problem with rebuilding him, only to have him get involved in more godmodding wars.

And this Olpro, I think we should, indeed, intervene.

Financial Aid Shall Sent to BTFE. Hung-Hang, please supply a good reason why you are at war with these nations. If we agree that it is not fair, we will have to send troops to defend our friends boarders.

Perhaps a senior nation should be appointed financial director, if one of our roles is to provide financial aid. It would be logical if it were a powerhouse economy or as near as. That certainly counts me out!

The Empire is fascinated by the prospects of joining this group, but the Ministry of Economics is concerned about the monetary aspect. What would be our repayment for joining this group?
17-11-2003, 17:41
A feeling off.. doing a good deed?
Xanthal
17-11-2003, 18:53
While the Ministry of Economics fully appreciates the warm, fuzzy feeling inherant in doing good deeds; it has no real value. there would obviously be political and sociological plusses in joining, but are there any economic ones?
17-11-2003, 18:56
Well Not everything has economic value Sir. I doubt you expect us to pay a monthly fee for your help. This is more poitical the economical. It has value for the future because we will help new nations and put them on track so this game will last for a longer time therefore more RPing, Storefronts, Wars, and Debates.
Xanthal
17-11-2003, 19:12
Noted. The Ministries have held a vote with the following results:
-Ministry of the Armada: Nay
-Ministry of Commerce: Nay
-Ministry of Communications: Abstain
-Ministry of Development: Nay
-Ministry of Economics: Nay
-Ministry of Education: Abstain
-Ministry of Equality: Aye
-Ministry of Foreign Affairs: Aye
-Ministry of Health: Aye
-Ministry of Intelligence: Aye
-Ministry of Justice: Aye
-Ministry of the Military: Abstain
-Ministry of Safety: Abstain
-Ministry of Social Affairs: Aye
-Ministry of Transportation: Nay
-Ministry of Truth: Abstain

Totals (Should Xanthal join the Protecters?):
Aye: 6
Nay: 5
Abstain: 5

Result: Xanthal will join the Protecters.
17-11-2003, 19:20
Great. I think we need more official positions (Ministers) and such.
17-11-2003, 21:25
Maybe we could create some sort of Storefront for younger nations, that explained more-in-depth-yet-simplified qualities of the weapons for greater ease. That way newbs. will actually be able to understand what their missles are doing, etc.
Aust
17-11-2003, 21:28
Yes I think you should do that Ssruke as you have a storefront already you are Director of arms.
Welcome Xanthal could you be mister for economics
17-11-2003, 21:38
3 things:

1)My storefront is future tech.-most people RP modern tech. Besides that, I'll try my best

2) My storefront already does that, with an extensive breifing on each weapon that's easy to understand.

3)Could every one who has a modern-tech. storfront please post the links here. I'll work from there.

thank you.

Yes but Director of defence is a big job so you have a minister under you to control arms, if you dismiss him I can find him another job

A most impressive organisation has sprung up here. I'm sure we'll be able to do a service for the world. Especially my little department, with Ssalurd and Coreworlds. But maybe I'm biased.

Members should, I suppose, give the International Incidents board at least a cursory glance as often as possible, to see if our services are required.
