You can post here what you think.

No, not really. Not really important enough. And irritating at worst, rather than outraging.

Controversy is good. Only fence-sitters are controversial, and they are those who never take a stand.


A hero dies but once, a coward dies a little each day.

Controversial, yes. More controversial than the norm of II, no.

Go torture some innocent catholics and put the rest in death camps, then you can at least be in the norm.

I am curious, cause in rl I am controversial person.
And it seemed there was some interesting differences in the NS community about my original nation being deleted. So I was wondering if I was controversial here too.

don't ask, just accept it. I can't explain the reasons and still be polite. Some thing you've posted, I cannot accept. However, compared to quite a few notable others, "irritated" is the worst I've felt after reading a post of yours. I've felt genuinely furious about some things others have posted. That's speaking about general forum stuff of course. RP wise I don't get mad unless someone is an insidious godmoder, and though some of your stuff has been rather dubious/borderline, it's not like the blatant godmoding that really irritates me.

you know what I mean. Nothing you've done is in any way comparable to the "Ha ha ha I nuke joo! your dead!" crap that sometimes goes on here. And hey, I'm not above giving myself some advantages that others would probably call unfair (mainly geographical) either.

I explained how PB works, based on rl technology and rl stats, but some people still consider it a gm.

Nobody cares if you're controversial or not; why not play the game like the rest of us and not care what people - in a game - think of you?

it's pushing it, but I wouldn't call it a godmode. Some people would consider my nation's geography a godmode. admittedly, it's stretching the limits of geographical advantage, but it's still in bounds I think.

OOC: I'm not stirring, but when you completely ignore logistics I get tempted to add you to my ignore list.

I try to budget for that in my budget, but I usually don't rp logisitics. Its boring.
