OOC: I really hate OOC threads, but we need one here.

Since E2 was started in the summer of 2004, dozens of copycat earths came about as nations that didn't get claims feld left out. I'm not blaming those nations. I initially was one of them.

Now over a year later, all I see in thread titles is "x attacks y Earth (insert number here) only".

I'm really sick of this. IMO, II has declined since Sep 2004. There have been too few major RPs. The main cause seems to be earths. Many good RPers are restricted by the rules of some Earths that restrict them to RPing only with other nations within that Earth.

The idea of an NS Earth was good at first, but the idea has become the death of II.

Please for the sake of saving RP here, STOP JOINING OR MAKING NS EARTHS!!!!!!!! IF YOU ARE IN ONE, THEN LEAVE THAT EARTH!!!!!!!!!!!

IMHO, All Earths are equally as bad.

I have to agree with you. I see alot of good threads, but then there's those EARTH [whatever number] ONLY tags after the initial title. There are dozens of Earths, and I'm sick of it too. They take up space on II, and are causing it to decline, like you said.
