Grand Duchy demands to see rules on warfare

I cannot find the rules for declaring war. As an INSANE dictator, I would like to wage war with all but 2 nations on the planet. In my own insane mind, this is reasonable as I am ROLE PLAYING accurately. It would be crazy if I could be banned for this, a nightmarish vision of fascist dystopia in fact.

I would have to be even more bored than I am now to read all that wad of stuff. If you guys spent half the time trying to contribute to society that you do making that lot up, the world would be better off (anyone disagree?)

Anyway, no sign of any rules that i can't declare war on whomever I choose. i didn't insult anyone. I said i am an insane dictator and I am at war with every other nation, except my two allies.

[OOC- He wants war? He gets it.]

Automated Response to insane/new/idiotic nation
Congratulations! You have caused annoyance, raised the ire, or made angry Samtonia. This was through:
A. Foolish declerations of war
B. Foolish decleration of economic actions
C. Foolish use of the world stage
D. Other.

We have ascertained that your action was A. Therefore, Samtonia is proud to announce you have been chosen as the next candidate to be:
A. Annexed
B. Invaded and looted
C. Destroyed
D. Nuclearly annihilated

After review of the situation, it has been decided that letter A is the appropriate choice in this matter. Field armies have been dispatched and should arrive in a short while. complaints can be addressed to your local Samtonian seat of government, after your people are subjugated and conquered.

Thank you and have a nice day.

OOC:
The first thing he aparently must learn is the difference between In Character(IC) and Out Of Character(OOC) actions and communication.

He's probally just being a jerk and already knows, but I have ocasionally encountered someone clueless is this rather fundimental knowledge, so *shrugs*.

The stickies aren't actually all that long if you read only the sections that are pertanant to what you're trying to do.

As for the rules of war, there are a few, but not that many. War is mostly open, and the few rules we do have are common sense, really.

While your dictator may be psychotic, attacking the world goes beyond psychotic and straight into suicidal. Why do you think North Korea has the bomb, and yet doesn't attack the world? Despite having a psychotic dictator, he also knows that launching a nuke would force everyone the world over to launch back at him. THAT's why your threads keep being deleted or locked.

I am insane. Call me the Great Cornholio. Armed only with a collection of pastel coloured tea cosies, I will not stop until I have defeated every nation on the planet. Since I am insane, I do not know if this is a sensible thing to do. I feel I owe it to the world to rid the planet of strange people wasting their time pretending to be global rules and getting their knickers in the twist when someone clearly having a laugh dares post a one line message that is not deemed fitting to the moral majority. Who will join me in my crusade. Free fig rolls to all my allies.

I think you should go to the library, pick up a dictionary and check out the word "insane". That should pretty much cover why my dictator is doing it

There ARE only five or six Earths, unless you count that weird Earth DS or whatever it's called. So you mean to say that you own land on every single Earth that's come out? O__o

Do you not see the irony of your post? The best way of ignoring my post would be to "ignore" it by not replying. Constructive comments only please
