A Little Bit of Everything
In this thread, I’ll go over practically everything about Nationstates and things that need to be known, such as an NS Time Clock, Logistics, nations that can help you out if you don’t know much about NS, all of the NS Earths, and creative threads that can help you get to know other nations on a more personal level, as well as the game at large.

Right now you're probably asking...why play nationstates? What makes this game so special? What is everyone so attracted to it? Well, here's why (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=7748549)

Time
Now many people have begun to question the actual time scale at which a majority of nations act by. Many say 1 NS year = 1 RL day; others say 1 Month = 1 Year: there is no set scale. It all depends on the scenario you are in to decide what the actual time is. Now, there won’t be a permanent solution to this, such as making 1 NS year = 1 RL day the time limit of Nation States, but we can all agree on something. Some of the older nations mentioned fluid time. This is unique in the fact that time speeds up and slows down at certain points, but this works the best.

#3: http://members.fortunecity.com/thracetailteann/html/gnp.html
#4: http://www.thirdgeek.com/nseconomy.php?nation=[yournationhere].


First Example (Explanation of Fluid Time): Nation A declares war on Nation B. Now either both nations are going to have to roleplay their war really fast, according to the 1 NS year = 1 RL day, or they can choose to slow time down. Preparations for war takes more time than most think. You can’t just go into it with a brief 5 minute post. You need to organize your forces, choose what to use, what is more effective, and what can help you minimize your losses. Here are some good threads to go to about preparations for war, logistics, and good examples or roleplaying war. Logistics can make or break your war. If you decide to put an insanely large amount of armed forces, air force, navy, etc, you’re either going to be ignored, or told that it is a godmode. If you’re lucky though, you’ll have an opponent who will work with you to fix it, and help you to RP the war. Although, if you get your logistics right, many nations look at this with a lot of respect, knowing that you know what you’re talking about, hence it gives you a good reputation among the better roleplayers.

When to Ignore/Recognize Nuclear Attacks
Now there's been a lot of controversy over when nuclear attacks should and shouldn't be recognized. Obviously, its up to the nation being attacked, whether to ignore it or not. They have every right to ignore an attack when the opposite nation roleplays the attack very poorly, or when the amount of nukes fired is an obvious godmode. Majority of nuclear attacks are planned between the two nations. A lot of nations agree that in order to accept an attack such as this, it needs to be discussed before-hand.

Although, if a roleplayer decides to ignore an attack that was very well planned out, and roleplayed well, then he is at fault, and the reprecussions are great. Many nations will frown upon this, not knowing if this nation can be trusted any longer. If they can ignore well thought out attacks, then what stops them from doing it again? Anyways, here is a thread that can give you an idea on what a lot of the nations in NS think.
1. OOC: Post any way in which you would not ignore the use of nukes in a war RP (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=348674)

2. Tentative Guide To Nuclear Weapons (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=382300)

Multiple Earths?
There has been much confusion about nations claiming to be RL nations. Due to the fact the Earth 1 is practically full, Earth 2 was created, and many more earths are on their way. This way, it gives many more nations the chance to claim their own nation from RL. (take a deep breath) It’s easier for a newer nation to ‘become’ a RL nation, as it gives them statistics to work with already, rather than creating your own custom nation, and making your own map within your region, which is something to do when you’ve grown up enough, although, some nations, including myself just find it easier to work as RL nations (phew…relax). The reason behind having my own RL nations is because then, it would be easier for me to create a history of my nation, although, when creating a custom nation, you aren’t bound to the rules of going through the World Wars, as your nation could be on a different planet.

When it comes to recognizing multiple Earths, I suggest everyone keep an open mind. A lot of the people on Earth 2 had their own plans with the nations that they wanted to claim, and couldn’t go through with them, until they actually owned them. It’s all part of a complex storyline. Everyone has their own reasons. Furthermore, the original world (Earth 1) is claimed by just 48 players... out of 1,000,000 current and past nations... is that fair? If you choose to ignore Earth 2, and the others, then that's your choice, and you're entitled to it.

The Dangers of Sharing Puppets/Giving Puppets Away
When given a puppet from someone else, you are also, in a sense, taking any mistakes that the previous owner has been given. Make sure that the puppet that you are receiving doesn't have any rule violations. For example, the puppet you receive could have been booted from the UN for UN Multi'ing, so that leaves you with one more mistake for deletion.


Collection of National Websites of Nationstates! by Euroslavia!
However, like I mentioned before, many people do like to create their own custom nation within their region, along with their own planet as their region. This gives you the chance to customize your nation however you want it, such as forests in the north, desert in the south, and the capital city in the eastern part of the country.

At this point, I would like to take time out to say, if you ever have any questions about logistics, or anything about NS, I will give out names of nations who are well known for specific things in NS.


Logistics
1. Automagfreek has some pretty good knowledge of statistics, judging from his mobilizations, and previous wars.
2. Iuthia, the all-knowing. He is a very friendly nation, who helps as many people as he can by pointing out things that could be improved upon. Don’t take his posts as severe criticism, they’re quite constructive.

Roleplaying Itself
1. Melkor Unchained is quite the detailed roleplayer. He’s quite busy though, as a mod, so here are some other nations to ask.
Example: All Is Fair In Love and War (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=327717)

2. Five Civilized Nations is also very friendly, and a very good roleplayer.
Example: The Tragedy of Truth (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=326847)

3. Pantera is an amazing RP’er, one of the best that Nation States has ever had. If you can, just look at some of his RP’s, to see how detailed he is in everything, with his ally, Automagfreek. They can definitely teach you that detail is important.

5. Very interesting RP between a variety of fairly new RP'ers.

A new earth claims thread has popped up since the many Earth threads began, but this one is different than the rest. In order to claim a territory/nation, you must provide a thread to prove it. This keeps certain nations from just claiming a nation out of nowhere, with no proof of taking it in the first place. I'd suggest checking this Earth Claims Thread before any of the others. It's legitimacy is higher than the previous ones.

Really Nice Euro, Two things, One, add that new terrorist guide by Jaxusism, it's positivley great! another thing for storefronts, talk a bit about why it's not smart to open up a storefront till you're a couple o' months old and defanetly emphasize upon personal creativity, the three Naval storefronts I'd recommend, Sarzonia's PIW, Isselmere's Isselmere Nieland Royal Shipyards, and fianly Granzi's Hybalt Defense Industries, which at the moment is being rebuilt due to Jaxusim's terrorist group, which is a great RP of terrorism.

Hey, I appreciate the comment Illior! :)

Perhaps that's something I can add to the How to Build a Better Storefront thread. Perhaps someone can create a thread where they give their opinions of which storefronts are the best ones and why with breakdowns of what makes the storefronts good.

Always had a question.

If you have a storefront or another nation pays you to build a base or a palace or something like that, does the money you make from become part of your budget?

As an example, according to my nation page, my dominant industry is book publishing. If role play had anything to do with the nation page, it would be shipbuilding.

Wiring money is quite easy. Whenever you purchase something at a store, and you need to pay for it, all you have to do is type:
*money wired*
or
*money sent upon confirmation*

or something to that extent.

Hey guys, I'm sure this isn't the right place to ask this but I do feel quite lost (and overwhelmed) by NS RPing. I have a very small nation but would in the near future like to start RPing diplomatically. Basically, my question is this; What is the etiquette for posting on existing threads? Can I join in anywhere or must I have been signed in at the beginning? Sorry again if I'm in the wrong place

Well, for starters, look in the thread title or the introductory post. If the thread says "closed," it usually means that only specific people are allowed to post in the thread. If it says "invite only," you would be expected to either telegram the person who posted the thread or sign up in the thread itself. If it says "open," look for any instructions the thread starter may have given.

Another thing you can do is send a telegram to the thread starter if it's a thread you really want to get involved in and if you have a story idea, you can pitch the story idea using the telegram. Those are some ways that you might be able to get yourself involved in a RP started by someone else.
