Gyrobot prepares yet another anti noob campaign

In light of the nation of FishCaks and their rather futile display of resistance during the Algeritanian conflict. Our nation has found an weakened nation perfect for pickings. The Gyrobot army in the campaign consists of 500 armored tanks, 250 Fighter/bombers and over 100000 troops. They are seeking allies in an attempt to destroy this nation.

Gyro, you can not destroy a N00b, so why even try?

It destroyed the nation of err... Shooban (forgot name) , so it should work with Fishcaks. Just pressure him enough to send him out of the forums.

If you want to drive a N00b, which translates to attention hog, you do not give them what they want, a better strategy would be to try and organise a blanket ignore.

Also you should try to treat them and hope they get better rather than executing them and not giving them a chance.

OOC: Your goal is more than admirable. Anyone who is able to get rid of the n00b mennace should be rewarded the Noble Peace Prize...

Until that beatiful day comes, the best weapon against the n00b is an ignore cannon. ViZion has the best über ignore cannon ever...however, not even the best ignore cannon can prevent an RP from being ruined. They're just playing those mind games...damn, writing down the song I'm listening to again.

OCC:
A campaign against n00bs is gonna fail and end up turning into godmod fest (insert unholy high number here). Besides I've given up the n00b stomping and tend to explain to them to either smarten up or suffer the wraith of the international anti-n00b groups.

I don't think it's fair to try and destroy N00bs. I started off as a n00b, but I learnt and now I am a productive member. Give them a chance. Then if they carry on being moronic, exterminate them.

Anti-n00b... You mean, you're going to commit national suicide, thus ridding the forums of your unfortunate presence?

Well, you certainly have our support.

Gyrobot, FishCaks isnt a n00b, he's just new. Give him the opportunity to learn and improve and if he doesnt improve in a couple months or doesnt try, we may support you.

Alright time I will give him, but if he still acts like sephiroth. Then I will have no choice but to drop the axe on him.

OOC: I fired 30 Exocets, 18 16" shells at this guy and his battleship didn't sink. So I ran his battleship over with my own. You have my support.

O. M. G. So, you're going to attack him, when you know he's going to godmod you? http://forums.filefront.com/images/smilies/lol.gif
Don't worry FishCaks, if he really does attack you, then the ADC will defend.

i'm new on this but have been on nation states since jan

it is annoying when people with puny nations attempt to unleash their ultimate weapon of doomness

but I've been accused of godmodding when i've based it on what my nation is like.

what would help would be some kind of guide to what tech should be available (for example can we use NBC's, are orbital weapons usable)

i mean sometimes it can be annoying but eventually we will get better so if you more experienced nationstates role players could give more guidence when we've gone a bit mad rather then just flaming us (as some have maybe not you lot though) it would be a great help

I agree with this, especially the creating a guide part.

I was thinking more of an advice thread that the more experienced players could respond to questions asked by newer players

It's mildly annoying sometimes when things that do make sense are shouted at when i'm just trying to accuratly roleplay my nation on here

I'm sorry, but this is one of the stupidest things I've ever heard. It's one thing to watch someone new to godmod and make an ass of themselves, but it's another to see someone who is supposed to be used to the game by now, lowering themselves to start a futile OOC war on them to with the end hope being that they will accept the hammering or leave NS...

It's so badly thought out, I mean it makes sense that if someone isn't RPing properly now, then to forcing a war on them will only result in more bad RP as they react to the attempt to teach them aggressively in a bad way.

Seriously, people need either ignore godmoders or offer friendly advise if they want to help. By friendly I do not mean "OMG, YOU NOOB, YOU CAN'T DO THAT" and instead I mean something more along the lines of "If you want more people to take you seriously, you need to think about what your nation would be realistically capable of at this stage, here is some guides (link to sticky), if you want any help, just TG me"

Frankly, I'm thinking of just ignoring anti-n00b players who can't just ignore these people instead of flaming them into the ground. I can't help thinking of the large number of people who have been fucked up because of idiots shouting at them when they start the game. It's terrible form and it's a dumb way to teach people... if you show them enough respect to try and help them properly without treating them like idiots then they may actually listen.

Enough n00b bashing already, I'm sick of it.

The Gyrobot army in the campaign consists of 500 armored tanks, 250 Fighter/bombers and over 100000 troops. They are seeking allies in an attempt to destroy this nation.

OOC: You just don't get it do you? You can't see what the problem with these threads is, can you? I tried some IC hints on your last couple of rounds, which didn't really seem to work, so I'll try an OOC hint.

Alright then, let's think of it like this:



Luxembourg starts waving around nuclear weapons like they own the place. America is pretty pissed off by this. So one day, George makes an executive decision. So he steps up onto the podium to make his announcement...

"My fellow Americanas," he says. "Luxembouria has nucular weapons. Their population is far too small for nucular weapons; it's against the rules in the stickies. Therefore, let it be known that I am declaring war on the Lexumabourians because they are n00bs and they do not RP properly. I will give them some time to stop being n00bs, but after that I'm gonna go over there and whoop some ass. That'll stop them from being n00bs. That's all. God bless muffins."

As he steps down to begin mobilising an unnecessarily huge military force for the task, the entire nation, no, the entire planet is in hysterics. What is a n00b? How is that a valid reason for war? Why can't he pronounce nuclear? And what was that strange yellow head with a shotgun doing behind him repeating the same, noiseless firing action over and over?

Three weeks later George W. Bush is removed from office and replaced with a monkey who doesn't use bizarre fictional words like 'n00b' and 'stickies' when making decisions. America switches to a banana-based economy and the EU gains ground with their revolutionary new mouth organ industry.



INTERNATIONAL POLITICIANS DON'T DECLARE WAR ON OTHER NATIONS BECAUSE THEY ARE ACTING LIKE 'N00BS'! THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A 'N00B' WHILE IN-CHARACTER! ANY POLITICIAN USING THAT WORD WOULD BE DECLARED INSANE FOR MAKING RANDOM STUFF UP (alright, they do that anyway, but only Bush makes up words)! SO WHAT YOU ARE DOING IS DECLARING WAR ON SOMEBODY FOR OOC REASONS! WHICH MAKES YOU A N00B TOO! SO JUST STOP DOING IT, AND JUST IGNORE ANYBODY YOU PERCEIVE TO BE A N00B! THAT'LL MAKE EVERYBODY HAPPY, AND WILL ALLOW ME TO TAKE MY CAPS LOCK KEY OFF!

Get it yet? Man, I hate using that word 'n00b'. It's not even a word, what am I saying... NOW YOU'VE BROKEN MY BRAIN! Garr!

And apart from all the utter insanity that this sort of thing obviously brings, there's one other key problem with it: it won't do any good, and it will only serve to sully your reputation! Just... don't!

Instead of insulting 'n00bs', try helping them out. You might actually find a decent RPer once in a while, who just needs guidance. Not... this... whatever this is.
