Cravna, Cravan
GASN Headquarters

"Today is a great day in the eyes of this alliance, as we are here today to reclaim the former glory of what was once the GASN.", Director David Koslin said into the microphone, his voice resonating throughout the Assembly chambers and into the homes of billions worldwide. "As we all know, GASN has been overrun by small, militaristic nations which have the intent of solving the world's problems through action and not peace. Therefore, after careful deliberation, we have found it necessary to begin anew.

"A select number of nations have been selected to remain in the GASN, while a number have been downgraded to validating or outright ejected. It is high time this alliance reclaimed its name, and as a result the list of full members of the Second Global Alliance of Sovereign Nations is as follows:

Cravan
The Aeson
Aequatio
Blaglug
Illior
Northford
Warring Minorities
Carbandia
West Corinthia
Shazbotdom
Ustia
Military Command
New Ausha
The World Soviet Party
Uldarious
Rosdivan

"As you can see, the Alliance has been trimmed somewhat. We will also be implementing much stricter entry guidelines, which will prevent this from happening again. Never again will the GASN serve to only humilate its seasoned members, and now it shall serve its intended purpose.

"And now, I present the revised charter of the GASN."

A second man rose to a lower podium, in his hands the new Charter of the Alliance. He set it gently on the podium, and read aloud.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Introduction
Global Alliance of Sovereign Nations (from now on referred to as “GASN”) is an alliance meant to restore peace to war torn areas of the world, and is primarily a collective defense organization to protect its members against unwarranted aggression. It has a secondary purpose, however, of bringing member nations together in a bonding alliance of mutual assistance and friendship to promote national sovereignty and freedom.

The Points
GASN is based on three points, each of them just as important as the next.

Economic Point
The first point, the Economic Point, promises to open trade between member nations, and improve relations with other members through free and open markets. It is defined by the following terms:
1-1. All member nations open trade to one another, tariff free.
1-2. Economic aid will be given to the less fortunate member nations to assist them in their growth and development.
1-3. All economic ideologies are to be permitted.
1-4. Member nations are expected to respect copyright laws of other member nations, and are expected to respect the laws other nations may have regarding trade.

Military Point
The central point of the alliance is the Military Point. This point defines the purpose of the military, and the role it plays in GASN’s day to day activities. The military is the main part of the GASN’s purpose, and is thus defined by the following terms:
2-1a. All member nations are expected to assist other member nations in the event of unprovoked attack, either militarily or economically.
2-1b. In the event of a provoked attack or aggressive action, it is the member nation’s choice of whether or not to enter the conflict.
2-2a. Declarations of war on other members are not permitted, and a nation-nation internal GASN conflict will result in the expulsion of the aggressor from the GASN.
2-2b. Publicly assisting a member nation who takes aggressive action against another member will result in permanent expulsion.
2-3. GASN will take part in combined peacekeeping operations when requested to intervene. Participation is optional.
2-4. All sanctioned GASN operations are to be headed by commanders from the four leading nations* and a lead commander, selected by the council and voted into office by the General Assembly each month. The requirements to be the lead commander are a strict RP review, a review of past relations with other nations, and a population of 1+ billion. Sanctioned operations are those agreed upon by the Governing Council and ratified by the General Assembly.

*See “Governing Council” below.

Humanitarian Point
The third and final point of GASN is the Humanitarian Point. The terms of this point deal with the treatment of citizens and civilians, along with humanitarian operations. They are as follows:
3-1. Maltreatment of one’s own citizens for unjustified purposes will result in expulsion from GASN, and will also result in economic sanctions against the offending nation.
3-2. Humanitarian aid will be given to all nations requiring it, no matter how large or small. This aid includes, but is not limited to:
A. Monetary aid
B. Food and Water Supply
C. Military Peacekeeper Protection
D. Educational Development
E. Construction of utilities, transportation systems, etc.
F. Technological Advancement

Membership Requirements
Requirements for membership in the GASN are as follows:
MR-1. No population or governmental restrictions.
MR-2. No maltreatment of citizens, prisoners, prisoners of war, ethnic groups, religions, or any other type of a breach of basic human rights. They must be given a decent standard of living, and given the basic needs a human being requires to survive.
MR-3. A standing military, no matter how small or large, and a willingness to defend member nations from unprovoked aggression.
MR-4. Ability to serve in all military operations deemed mandatory. Military operations will only be deemed mandatory in extreme circumstances.
MR-5. A grace period spanning two RL weeks where their RPing experience is put under review.
MR-6. Endorsement from two (2) well established members. (members for 1+ months)
MR-7. Thorough background checks by the Foreign Relations council.
MR-8. No current conflicts which would force GASN members to war. A nation may request aid, but cannot become a member while at war. Said conflict must end first, whether or not GASN nations decide to assist.
MR-9. Approval by the governing council.
MR-10. A proven competence in RPing experience, as seen by the governing council.

Governing Council
There will also be a governing council of four nations, all of which are permanent. Three of these members will be appointed by the founding member, Cravan. However, they will be required to receive two nominations from member nations to qualify. Any of these three appointed nations on the governing council can be removed if the founding member and three other members (council or regular) agree. If the governing council agrees in a vote of 3/4, any member of GASN can be ejected without the ability to reapply assuming there is valid reason behind the ejection. The Founding Member may eject any regular member assuming valid reasoning is given. The Founding Member may also assume dictatorial controls if the Council shows a period of inactivity or incompetence. Power will be handed back to the Council and Assembly at a time deemed fit by the Founding Member.

Lower Councils
Meanwhile, there will be three lower councils, the Military, Foreign Relations, and Economic councils. They will make decisions based on their area of expertise, and they will be chosen by the following guidelines:
CG-1. Appointment through Governing Council vote
CG-2. Review of RPing skills
CG-3. Review of expertise in chosen field
CG-4. Review of past relations with other nations and various other background checks.

Please make a formal IC request for admission. If you do not have a formal IC request, I know you have probably not read through most of the charter and therefore you are not worthy of membership.

OOC: Glad to see we're up and running again.

IC: The Holy Confederacy of New Aeson is happy to see that the GASN has been rejuvenated and hopes that this will usher in a new era of prosperity for it's members.

Emperor Baker is pleased to see the face lift on the GASN, however is somewhat distressed that many members were ejected, many whom had done good things in their time, though certain mistakes were made.


Regardless, he has opted to remain a member state, and not to allow this to harm relations with their Ally, Cravan, who did give him refuge during the bloody Military Coup earlier in the year.

Our lawyers will be looking over this new doctorine. They wish to see if there are any loopholes to make sure that no one tries to use the GASN name in the manner that some former member nations have in the past. It may take a few days for our Lawyers to fully look over the doctorine so please stand by.

ooc: looks good, I haven't been in many rps yet (4-5 I think) so I'll apply later on. This is just a place holder of sorts to let you know I'm interested.

[Snowed under with work...Biology coursework on the Fauna of a rocky shore, and maths: Differenciating Trigonometry. Will do an IC post wednesday, possibly thursday. Deepest appologies.]

Statement: For Immediate Release

The Democratic Republic of Trivalvia, seeking many of the same goals as stated in the revised charter of the Global Alliance of Sovereign Nations, would like to voice its support for the reformed alliance. Although we are not yet ready to seek membership within the GASN, the Trivalvian government wishes to convey to the GASN governing council its willingness to provide support to the alliance in its efforts to promote peace worldwide, and wish to open talks regarding the opening of Trivalvian sea and airbases to GASN forces.

some friend of mine in the CA wants to know if he can join you guys. his name is Galmiria. altough, i conquered them, he wants to join you

OOC: Hope my post is okay because I am assuming that your #1 post is being transmitted to the world. If not, I can edit.

Subject: GASN version II

Just like the World Anti-Terrorism Alliance et.al., this alliance is doomed for failure. Why can't nations and alliances such as yourselves realize that there are "no world problems" except for busybodies like yourselves who seek to bother everyone else with their agenda? Leave others alone.

Signed

[The Great Seal of the Ministry of Rites]

Snip

We, the World Soviet Party, would like to thank GASN for keeping us in as a member state.
We also recommend that Trivalvia is accepted in the GASN, as they have proved to be very helpful and respectful both with us, and their citizens.

((OOC: No time to respond to alot, so I'll answer a few questions OOC.

@Trivalvia: Assume I had a seceratary type up a nice response to you. I'll get a full formal response sometime later.

@CP: Feel free to apply.

@Mal: All request for membership have to be formal IC requests by those who want to join. So, atm, no.

@Northy: No prob, take your time. =)

I'll type up a quick IC response for Vrak, now.))

Global Alliance of Sovereign Nations Public Relations

If you would care to read and understand the charter, you would see our alliance is not based upon foreign interventions such as the doomed anti-terror alliance of which you speak. This alliance is founded on the basis of defense of its neighbors and only those who request assistance. While our members may take it upon themseleves to stick their noses where they do not belong, it is not the policy of this alliance to intrude in other nations' affairs. Hence the name "Sovereign" in the title. We keep out of your business, you keep out of our own. Fair enough?

Hello. My nation would like to join the GASN. our past history was on the CA for about 1 hour, fighting the Griffencrest in TWSP, and facing against Maldorians and becoming friends with them. If there is anything more you need for the application please notify us. Thank you.

[OOC: Great job Cravan. Can we chat about smoething on MSN some time?]

Diplomatic Communique
The United Kingdom fully supports the new GASN and its charter, finding the charter and its points most agreeable. We believe andhope that the thinning down of the GASN memberbase will make the Global Alliance of Sovereign Nations more compatible with the UK.

OOC: Uh, hang on... WSP is a founding member of the UCN. How the hell is he a GASN member, too?

OOC: probably in the same way that, say, Canada is a member of NORAD, NATO, the British Commonwealth, and the UN all at the same time. So long as charters don't cause conflict of interest, there's no rule limiting the number of alliances one can be part of.

Re: GASN version II

When you address those that are more powerful than you, you would do better to use a modicum of respect instead of being so casual in your remarks. Yes, we do understand that this alliance is defensive in nature, but from our experience this has been but a cover in order to promote an agenda. Your concluding remarks in your charter, specifically:

"As all nations can see, it is time a new world order begins, and GASN seeks to jump start this new world order. It will take time, but eventually, we will be able to live in peace."

give us some concern. We do not like this concept of a "new world order" for there is nothing wrong with the current one. Finally, we do not like your implied threat of "you keep out of our own" business. We will hope that you will mind your own words for in the inevitable case that your alliance will begin to meddle in another sovereign nation's affairs, you shall find us near.

OOC: Finally got some free time Crave? anyways, glad to see this came back up, and Kanami to address your point, I'm pretty sure you would go onto the validating list, although I could be wrong, due to inactivity on the offsite forum.
Official Government Proclamation from the Office of Chairwoman Erika Kars

It is always a glad sight to see the sign of friendship appear in today's world, and I am glad to see that the thinning of GASN has finally come to fruition, and I duly give congradulation to the hardworking staff of the major GASN nations that put this new charter together and have started in its implementation.

To the United Kingdom of Questers, although we have never been directly allied, we have always shared a mutual respect for the other's nation, and I hope that our membership in GASN never tainted this relationship. With your new found compatibility of the alliance, I think it may be wise to eventually create some tie with the UK, as it most likely would be beneficial to both of our nations, or the alliance and the UK, depending on the tie that would be acceptable.

To the Vrak Ministry of Rites, your concerns are duly noted, and although your nation may be larger and more powerful than most if not all of the nations in the GASN, it seems slightly unfair to be the judge of who is older. Although we have not had much in the way of contact during the courses of our two nations, the growth of the Vrakian (OOC: hope I got that right) nation and its people have not been lost on the Illiorians, as our two nations lived through some of the harshest times our world may have ever seen.

Anyways, to the point. Your concerns are valid, that indeed most alliances fail, due to inactivity, loss of interest by participating nations, etc. The idea that I hope sets GASN apart is its strong, dedicated founding nations. These nations are the rock upon which GASN has built, and is now finishing remodeling its house. The reason why they are the rock is because their international policies and actions lead by demonstration, and will hopefully set an example for the rest of the members, and create an active and strong alliance that may one day rival the powers of the former NATO and RWC pacts.

Once again, I give my congradulations to the staff at the GASN headquarters, and ask them to continue their hard work, and thank you all for reading this.

Erika Kars,
Chairwoman of the Illiorian National Governing Council

((OOC: Shit, that part was left over from the last charter when our objective was to be rid of Kraven and put in a "New World Order." Forgot to edit it out. Sorry 'bout that. Editing now.

@Kanami & Aqua Anu
You aren't on the list because I thought you were inactive since you both were never on the forum or anything or even in the thread. Perhaps I saw you there once or twice. My mistake, however you will have to reapply with a formal IC request and go through the validation.))

((OOC: Shit, that part was left over from the last charter when our objective was to be rid of Kraven and put in a "New World Order." Forgot to edit it out. Sorry 'bout that. Editing now.))

((It was my mistake... I didn't intend for that to be there.))

Eh, alright then.

OOC:
@ Cravan. Well, it wouldn't really matter if that part was left in the charter or not. We, that is, icly, just don't like alliances that we perceive as getting into other people's affairs. This does, of course, mean that we perceive things inaccurately in an ic sense but it helps give my generals an excuse to keep funding the military. You know, "all these new alliances popping up mean we have to keep our military budget up sir! Even if we don't know anything about them! They could attack us at any moment!" Besides, I have to annoy people once in a while. :)

@Illior. Yup, you have it right. "Vrakian" is the adjective, such as "look at that fat Vrakian walrus." As for alliances "doomed to fail", it's more of a philosophical remark in that we think that those who are busybodies die off quicker than those who keep to their own affairs. But yeah, ooc stuff such as inactivity and whatnot are the death of alliances, regions, and nations. :(

Re: GASN II

We are not exactly sure of what to make of your remarks. You are respectful which shows well in possible future dealings, but we have always been wary of others who wish to remodel the world into their own image. To give your people a glimpse of why we feel this way, it is because the Klatch, of which Vrak is but a state, has often been misunderstood by outsiders and subsequently invaded, unsuccesfully to date we should add, by those wishing to interfere in our internal affairs. These same outsiders have used flimsy excuses to conduct such crusades and have failed miserably, instead of pursuing diplomacy first. Therefore, our stance on this and other such like-minded alliances have not changed. We do intend to only concern ourselves with our own affairs and we hope this successor to the first GASN will do so as well. Not to do so may result in Vrak and possibly his allies to take a more active voice to counter such unwelcome pursuits.

I think I figured out why my name is in yellow now...

And I can guess for myself why I've been downgraded to said catagory.

It's life's way of saying "slow down", like a sucking chest wound...

...

[Sucking chest wound noise]

....

I should take care of that...

But I've got a war to fight, whether or not I'm really part of the GASN, I've still promised to give aid to GASN nations, and to Khornate tribes.

And even had it not been for GASN, I still would more likely than not have been involved in said conflicts, especially Khornate tribes.

I'll just consider myself on very freindly terms with GASN, and I can't really wipe the paint off the boats that are jointly operated by PROHT/GASN forces, especially the ones currently commiting acts of piracy against Griffencrest Petroluem industries and the other half assisting Khornate tribes (the amount of these boat in comparission to the number of local privateers is minimal, and are only there to detract any attempted show of force).

Incedentally, almost all non GASN controled boats from PROHT are directly assisting in the defense of 2 GASN nations. Save a few resserved purely for defense of our own shorelines.

OOC: Sweet Cravan reformed the charter. I guess now is the best time to get back into the GASN so lay it on me, whats going on right now in are little alliances world?

Well, it looks like Dephire is no longer a GASN member. As of last night..or whenever everyone got together and decided, Dephire was ejected from the GASN. Hurtful Thoughts had told me. So, I thank him.

Now then. This is what was done wrong.

First off, why was it Hurtful Thoughts that had to tell me? No one else was capable of coming up to me and telling me that I was no longer a member of the GASN?

Second off, why wasn't I even NOTIFIED?! There wasn't a TG, hell...I wasn't even given a PM on the off-site forum. How was I supposed to know?

Thirdly..Cravan, I remember that you had said that I wouldn't be ejected, but only be brought down to a pending member. So what the hell man?

No, I'm not pissed. I just want some answers. This is bull-crap that no matter how fucking hard I tried to keep this 'sovereignty' thing enforced, I'm the one that pays.

Dephire, That should be kept to the offsite forum.

Dephire, That should be kept to the offsite forum.

I can't. Being a rejected nation means that you cannot post new topics. And I would hate to spam other nation's topics.

Then you should have pm'ed Crave. There was a time when you guys nearly caused me to leave over your actions..but I am glad I did not..

What part of "if it affects you, it affects us all, dammit!" did you not understand? By acting like a loose cannon you made all the rest of us look bad, more so those that did not condone your actions. (/wenting over)

The below is strictly OOC:

I only pointed out that you weren't on the new roster...

Could have been because you were overlooked... Though this is doubtful, as your name is in red on the offsite.

2ndly, I told you on my own free will, mostly because my name looked differnt on the offsite forum and I went digging for answers and found the second version, read the roster, and noted Deph wasn't there on the waiting list, since deph, wanderjar, and myself, among others were a bunch of loose cannons. I then checked the other lists for Dephire, but no "Dephire" was to be found...

So don't thank me, informing you was an afterthought.
And had an alterior motive to simply informing you.
(Mostly to prevent you from going into a conflict thinking the GASN will back you [directy anyways])

Looks like ADAN has a breath of new life?
(So long as you never spamad it on another offsite forum again)

I guess my only saving grace is that I pointed out when I was acting out of strict accordance to the the GASN charter and when I was exploiting the grey areas.

Cravan? Why did you give Dephire the boot? Thats really not cool man.


Its not going to hurt our national, or even personal relations, but I'll have to think about whether I want to remain in the GASN. I feel you've booted some good guys.

You know Dephire, you can reapply.

I've told Dephire why through PM. If he wants he can share why.

I personally have a liking to Dephire, but a number of factors contributed. Don't think I did it because I felt like it, I have my reasons. I actually didn't want to, but I had no other choice. Some things came to my attention I couldn't let slide.

To Cravan, and the rest of the Global Alliance of Sovereign Nations,

The United Kingdom and Rising Sun of Questers announces its intention to apply to join the G.A.S.N as a permanent member, considering the new terms that we find most agreeable. While we have had our differences in the past, the UK has worked with several G.A.S.N nations before and has positive relations with several members, primarily Northford.

We hope that the membership of the G.A.S.N approves of Questers joining this alliance, and although we have had our differences before we hope they can be set aside, for peace is the first step to civilisation.

I decided to read the new doctrine and I would have to say its very good. I like how specific it is and how it basically answers all of your questions, good job Cravan!:)

Thanks. Northford reminded me to add something about affiliates, which I will be doing when I get the chance.

So how do I know when I've been endorsed?

(It's been awhile since I've had to apply or wait for a full membership, as the CA was simply sign on the dotted line and you are in no questions asked...)

After the two weeks are up I'll ask who would endorse your reentry. Then you have to be confirmed by the council, etc.

Also, I already realised I missed Uldarious but I know there are others who I may have missed. Speaketh now or forever hold thine peace.

The time has come in every alliances history where it must be pruned. Like a beautiful rose, it must have it's dead material cut, and it must have, like all roses, some good material removed, to make way for vigourous, new growth.

We have witnessed that today with the GASN. Cutting away the unneeded and unwanted traits, it has allowed itself to be subject to renewed growth. Growth, which, like the case of the admittance of The Formidable Allied Provinces of Questers, we welcome. [Endorse]. Growth like the admitance of the Peoples Republic of Hurtful thoughts, who, if they can meet all of the membership requirements will make wonderful members of the GASN [Endorse].

While this is true, and good gardener will take his cuttings and put them onto the compost heap, so that their goodness can be passed onto future generations. The Government of Northford believes that while certain ocuntries may not wish to be fully involved with the GASN, they may still wish to benifit from free trade and friendliness that the GASN. To that end, the Commonwealth of Northford is eager to push for the application of previous members as Affiliates, or, Associates. We propose they be given the following provisions of the alliance:

1-1. All member nations open trade to one another, tariff free.
1-3. All economic ideologies are to be permitted.
1-4. Member nations are expected to respect copyright laws of other member nations, and are expected to respect the laws other nations may have regarding trade.

2-2a. Declarations of war on other members are not permitted, and a nation-nation internal GASN conflict will result in the expulsion of the aggressor from the GASN.
2-2b. Publicly assisting a member nation who takes aggressive action against another member will result in permanent expulsion.

3-1. Maltreatment of one’s own citizens for unjustified purposes will result in expulsion from GASN, and will also result in economic sanctions against the offending nation.

Being an associate, or affiliate lead therefore leads to a much looser friendship with the GASN, much more like a free trade group. Therefore, the Commonwealth proposes the following membership requirements:

MR-1. No population or governmental restrictions.
MR-2. No maltreatment of citizens, prisoners, prisoners of war, ethnic groups, religions, or any other type of a breach of basic human rights. They must be given a decent standard of living, and given the basic needs a human being requires to survive.
MR-5. A grace period spanning two RL weeks where their RPing experience is put under review.
MR-6. Endorsement from two (2) well established members. (members for 1+ months)
MR-7. Thorough background checks by the Foreign Relations council.
MR-8. No current conflicts which would force GASN members to war. A nation may request aid, but cannot become a member while at war. Said conflict must end first, whether or not GASN nations decide to assist.
MR-9. Approval by the governing council.
MR-10. A proven competence in RPing experience, as seen by the governing council.

While these ideas are merely suggestions, the Commonwealth warmly greets it's other members, and looks forward to a better, more prosperus, future.

Signed,

Alan Brookes,

Prime Minister of Northford.

The Democratic Empire takes this suggestion into consideration, and will submit it to the General Assembly for deliberation and a vote. This resolution has our full support.

Heya everyone, I may need some assistance in something I'm trying to write up...how would you like to assist in restoring and reforming Dephire? My nation is in chaos, and many cities are in ruins. It's hard to RP when you don't have anything else left. So, what do you say?

The Dominion is willing to do what they can to bring Dephire back to their feet, money and supply donations are available, although our manpower is required elsewhere.

Thank you. I shall be composing a thread more than likely tomorrow or later...Currently short on time...

OOC: Has C.Prime applied yet? Anyway, if/when he does, you've got my endoresement.

Can Antigr Join?

Don't get involved in too many alliances now, Antigr.

Also, I have posted a thread that should get my nation back on track. It's Reformation and Restoration (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?threadid=503147). Hope to see some of you there!

OOC: Has C.Prime applied yet? Anyway, if/when he does, you've got my endoresement.

OOC: I'm still thinking about it, its going to be a hard choice as I know some inside the GASN don't want me and they are potentially fratenzing with my enemys.

Anyways, to the point. Your concerns are valid, that indeed most alliances fail, due to inactivity, loss of interest by participating nations, etc. The idea that I hope sets GASN apart is its strong, dedicated founding nations. These nations are the rock upon which GASN has built, and is now finishing remodeling its house. The reason why they are the rock is because their international policies and actions lead by demonstration, and will hopefully set an example for the rest of the members, and create an active and strong alliance that may one day rival the powers of the former NATO and RWC pacts.

We should hope that Illior isn't wishing such a bad fate upon the GASN as that of NATO or the RWC. The rest of your communique made it seem like you had fairly high hopes for them.

TO: The Chellian Foreign Ministry
From: (The lady I made the Rep but I'm too lazy to check her name)
I wouldn't call the power and respect NATO held during it's prime a bad fate, and I truly hope that GASN does indeed reach that level of power and respect, and I guess the RWC was a bad example, but they did command some respect. I meant this as more of a hope that GASN would be respected in the world community, and that the new transformation would help a good bit, although the years of NATO were unstable more than volatile come to think of it.

You need to type up an OFFICIAL diplomatic message. Such as the ones that Kanami and Nor nuin Giliath typed out. Until that time i doubt your request will be taken.

But yes, Antigr, as I said you must make a formal IC request before I accept you.

The Community of North Tolemac humbly requests permission to join your fine alliance. We are not an aggressive nation, but we do pledge to come to the defense of your alliance should be called upon to do so.

The nation Of Zackaroth would like to join this alliance in hopes of forging new friendship with other nation and protecting and being protected by strong allies. We where currently a little iffy about joining alliances but with a recent Oil Boom in our country we wish to have a little extra protection. Of course allaince members get a discount. We hope to get an answer soon.

Zackaroth is now a pending member.

Greetings from the Republic of Ackistan!

The government of Ackistan wishes to encourage your alliance to give generously to the war ravaged nations of Kurdun and Naasha.

Peace has been recently declared in that region. We wish to reward them for choosing peace over war, and encourage you to do the same.

OOC: It's going to start happening, mind you. I'm not accepting just anyone anymore. People will have to work for membership. The last new applicant to sign up on the forums was Questers, which says something about their chances already.

Dear Respected Leaders,

If you will please accept our re-application to GASN, we would be much obliged. Thank you for your consideration.

OOC: I just want to clear something up. Judging by your name, I'm assuming you use magic. Exactly how fantasy are you? Because this is an MT/low-PMT alliance.

I like to see me as a mix. I play PMT as well as MT, I mean I put limitations on my self and my abilities, I've fought in purely MT/PMT wars as my nation with purely MT-PMT capabilties. I've found my self to hate the tech levels, because it has become almost an excuse for nations to shun me. But I can sense you'll likely do the same, so you might as well go ahead and just count me out, everyone else does.

Re: An End to Hostilities

The Corporate Alliance and the Global Alliance of Soverign Nations have fought each other fiercly and brutally across several nations, leading to hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of deaths and billions of dollars worth of property damage and military expenditure. Neither side has proven decisively victorious on all fronts, and there seems to be no end in sight to the fighting. We, therefore, would like to suggest a possible peace agreement, to be discussed in the conference that ThePeople'sFreedom proposed. We believe that, at this point, peace would be the best outcome for all parties concerned. We await your reply to this request for reason.

I may only be a (re)validating member, but I'd most likely agree to the terms provided I knew what they were...

Did I resend my IC validation post yet?

Coded Message

To: GASN Alliance
Re: CA & GASN Peace Agreement

While North Tolemac may only be a minor pending GASN member, we wish to encourage our friends to continue their efforts against the Corporate Alliance. That alliance is nothing short of evil. Defeating them is worthy of our best efforts, and nothing short of a Corporate Alliance surrender should be accepted. We believe accepting anything less will be viewed as a sign of weakness, which will only embolden them.

It is with great regret that North Tolemac must confess that we have done little to battle the Corporate Alliance ourselves. While our nation's military is unimpressive by GASN and CA standards that is no excuse. Effective immediately, our navy will be mobilized to assist in enforcing the CA embargo.

Good day.

Message from: Jonathan Vega & Alexander Ra'Baal
To: Global Alliance of Sovereign Nations

"Baal and I have discussed some matters presently at hand, and have found that we are to ensure that the peace deals are pulled through. Any violator will hereby be reprimanded and stripped of their power. Dephire is on the verge to complete recovery, and thus will be at the ready if need arises. We are sure enough that if such treaty is broken, the violator would wish to not have done so.

Currently in Control:

Five Godsend
Twenty Thousand HellKnights
Three Hundred Thousand DeathKnights
Five Million Soldiers

We do not, however, include our forces in Danteri at the present time for they are too far away to be able to contact. If we were to, then that would be an additional twelve million ground soldiers.

I, Jonathan Vega, thank the GASN for hearing this news. If you do so wish to assist in the recovery of our nation, then please do so."

New Ausha has betrayed us.

It also lists me as a member...

The list needs updating...

Someone remind me to update the lists and whatnot later. I have a date with the Battlefield 2142 demo.

Honorable members of the GASN Governing Commitee... the Empire of Undershi is currently a member of the Corporate Alliance, and has gone to war with you over your attacks against a nation allied with us - namely Blackhelm. We have little love for Grifencrest as a corporation, but we are loyal to our allies. We hesitated to enter the war, because we knew it would turn out like this. Hundreds of thousands of dead, billions of dollars worth of damages, and for what? Bragging rights? Glory? Such concepts are meaningless when compared to the devestation that has been wrought on TWSP, Blackhelm and New Ausha, and which might soon be wrought on TPF and my own home nation. We want peace - this fighting has gone on too long for all concerned. We will not betray our allies, on that much we are clear, but we hope that a peaceful solution beneficial to all parties concerned might soon be found.

Someone remind me to update the lists and whatnot later. I have a date with the Battlefield 2142 demo.

I'm also looking forward to CnC:3, but I'm afraid EA will screw with it to the point of making it awful. They tend to do that. I'm surprised 2142 turned out as fun as it is.))

Because EA made them do shit they didn't want to, half the company agreed and the other half left because EA are twats and screwed up Westwood.

Hataria as made a thread condemming the GASN.

Wii R teh los3!!

Copy-pasted for those who don't go to GASN offsite

Leader Milo approaches an empty podium, in a nearly empty room, and addresses those who had chosen to attend:

"Members, validating members, affiliates, and former members of the GASN, it is with a heavy heart that we, the People's Republic Of Hurtful Thoughts, must cease to be an official member with the GASN, due to our unpopularity during a recent reorganization, for better or for worse, the alliance changes.

We joined the GASN, not trying to exploit it, not seeking it for shelter, or any of that, we ran across the alliance by accident on the battlefields of Chizeland, and we had been instantly impressed by their ideals, and their organization, and in an effort to further each other's goals of everyone respectiong everyone else's lands and beliefs, even the ones we may not entirely agree with."

[nods at a communist, a socialist, a capitalist, a monarchy, a democracy, and a dictatorship; then continues:]

"We supported the GASN at every opprotunity, so far as our resources would allow without bankrupting our nation, when a terrorist organization declared war upn this very alliance itself and attacked what we were supposed to defend we defended it, and as the conflicts escalated, we took the fight to the terrorist headquarters itself, and enacted sanctions to prevent further escalation of the conflict"

[Pauses, looks at his feet, takes a deep breath, and faces the front of the room and resumes, it almost looks as if he is crying]

"When outside nations took legal actions, and declared GASN and their members to be acting out of accordance with their own charter, we defended them... we defended them..."

"And now, we leave you, not because we did anything wrong, except that perhaps we didn't do enough, as a man is not an island, a soverign nation is not to be isolated, and should never under any circumstance be, an isolated case - an... abnormality - among nations.... all nations have a right to their own soveriegnty."

[Pauses, takes a drink of water, clears tears from his eyes]

"We saw the GASN as an alliance for the better, and as we leave you, we still do, and we shall contune to support the GASN cause, wherever it may be. Thank you for your time."

When things progress to the end, I get a feeling you'll want to, regardless.

Boico is hereby on the pending members list.

Also, to all pending members: The validation period is meant to test how active you are in addition to the points listed above. So far there is one pending member who has done this...

Cravan, what are your thoughts on Clandonia Prime and Hataria?

Hataria mixes OOC and IC just a teency bit too much... And that is very, very, very dangerous.

Clandonia Prime, ICly, is a loose cannon. OOCly he's an OK dude. But IC is all that matters in your little problem, and he's also pretty dangerous.

So then, should I get rid of Clandonia's membership completely...or should I just set him back to 'Pending Status'? Also, I'm sorry for posting this on your alliance's thread even if it is my alliance's problem...but this is the first time that I have been able to get on in awhile and it's the first time I can catch you.

I dunno, it's up to you. Like you said, your problem. ;D

What are the requirements for affiliation?

I'd rather be affiliated at the moment than a member...I think.

I've been putting off the amendment which adds the rules for affiliation. Guess I'll put that before the assembly now.

Without meanning to sound rude, Dephire, but it was spam that clogged up the last GASN thread. I wonder if ranting on about another alliance, in the GASN thread (which you're not, presently, I believe, a member,) counts as spam?

What do you think Crave? I don't know about you, but I find that kind of thing Mighty annoying.

To be honest with you Northford, it wasn't all about another Alliance, it was about Clandonia Prime. :rolleyes:

-.-

Clandonia Prime. Please go to our private forums, you have a roasting awaiting you.

Then you probably should go to our thread..because I'm seriously thinking into doing some ADAN operations...:D

Oh, the ADAN ones. You can sign up for the forums, they aren't fully privatized quite yet. So you can sign up and be involved in. Hehehe.

Looks to me like these three are all about your alliance. Keep it off of this thread please. Thanks

Agreed. Please and thank you, Deph.

Apparently no one else saw that they were direct replies to other people's questions. Or is it just me? Has to be...oh well.

@ Everyone: Appologies for not replyin on the GASN Riots thread some of you are active in. I will do a reply as/when I can, but things have been kinda stressful latey, and I've not had the will to actually write a reply down.

Appologies to everyone.

Northford, see my Embasy Exchange thread as soon as you can and apply for an Embasy. I already have a spot set aside for you to check that first.

OOC:
You were not active at all in any GASN Operations and you were not active at all on the GASN Offsite Forums so you didn't get the required Endorcements for full membership during the vote between the dates of October 29 through November 1st.

Off-Site Forums just die off, that's why I don't go to them

Well ours havent. And not participating in anything GASN related hurt you. During the time of the reorganization, we dropped a lot of inactive members because they didn't not participate in the offsite forums. To be a member you need to be active both in game and on the forums. Thats how it goes.

Yea, but only TPF made it to shore, and that was a massacre. I didn't only long on to rebuild, I did quite the opposite and after throwing back the invasion proceeded to assault other anti-CA nations at home and assist allies who had fallen under attack.

Claudius never died, Leafanistan claimed that to both scam you for money and keep him hidden (This is OOC and cannot be used). Havn't you noticed that Tiberius has not sent a letter yet, and all the ones I have sent were sent by Jack Phoenixclaw, Chairman of the Board, Griffincrest Oil Inc?

ENCRYPTED ALLIANCE TRANSMISSION

If this conflict is a direct result of an offensive by your nation then it doesn't fall under the Charter of the Global Alliance of Sovergn Nations. We are only abliged to assist in your defence if the attack they made is out of the blue, not as retaliation against something that your nation has done. We appologise but the Dark Empire of Shazbotdom does not see this as a valid reason for us to send troops in for the defence of your nation for a conflict that you started.

Official Message from the Ministry of State

As our nation expands its international presence, the desire to participate in alliances comes naturally, for both the economic and military benefits such memberships would bring. While our experience in dealing with other nations has thus far been limited, we hope to increase it through membership in your fine alliance. Lower Columbia is prepared to do what is necessary to comply with the requirements of membership in the GASN, should the Governing Council be so gracious as to allow us the opportunity to prove our nation's merit.

Sincerely,
Erik Kessler
HM Minister of State

Pray tell am I alone in the Blackhelm attack? I just had too rout in the face of 4 enemy fleets. Where are my allies? This began as a GASN attack (fires of change) or at least GASN members taking advantage of Blackhelms civil unrest. So where is allied reinforcement?

OOC:
The alliance charter says that we are only abliged to assist if it is an act of aggression by him. Thus, I will not get involved in this as it is a group of our member nations assaulting BC on their own accord and not a sanctioned GASN operation.

If it comes down to it, I will dispatch Medical Supplies, Food Rations, and other non-militaristic items as a nation that is neutral in this conflict. It will be dropped in a zone where both sides can get to it, so it'll be whoever gets there first, gets the stuff.

I simply expected what I provided in return. I noticed my allies going too war, so I supported them. As they retreated, I was conspicuously denied such a dignity, of "allied support" something which has become little too non-exostent in the GASN. If this was a unanimous GASN operation, where was the full support?

As for your offer of rations, we are disgusted that the only way we could recieve support from a fellow member, would be too further endanger soldiers. I am very disheartened too call you my ally. Your rations will be of much use too the CA, where your sympathies obviously lie. Good night, and good luck.

But it was not a Unanimous GASN Operation. The Governing Council didn't approve it so it was just a bunch of opportunistic nations wishing to do what they wanted, nothing else. Which is why I will not send any support for this operation.

And I did help to defend other GASN Nations (TWSP During the invasion on him and others) so I know how the CA works. They will try and keep the peace for as long as possible then do a sneak attack against a weaker GASN Nation, all you have to do is wait for it.

And that was an OOC Comment about the rations. Don't take it as an IC view from my nation. My national leaders don't like taking sides in a conflict in which they feel they are being forced into, as in this situation that you are putting my nation in.

OOC:
Yes I do remember it. But what I am saying is that according to the GASN Charter (See: Military Point in OP), if it is an offensive operation, we ARE NOT obligated to assist. The incident with Umvitz was a defensive operation, which we ARE obligated to help with. Thus, if my nation wishes to stay neutral in this conflict, it can.

And we can do without saying that I have 'Sympathies' for the CA, as I don't really give a rats backside about most of their members and refuse to RP with a good majority of their members. So slinging around insults will get you no where with me, it'll just get you on my bad side.

And not asking for help in the first place sort of didn't help your problem, if you were having difficulty, swallow your pride and ask for help...

Just because you are drowning doesn't mean people will immediatly see that you are drowning...
Normally, they only notice you were drowning... until you go under, and sometimes, even then, they'll think you are playing a joke on them. So they do nothing until called for help or clearly in distress and on the defensive.

It's retaliatory...
You started it from the looks of it.

I'd like to voice my agreement with both Hurty, and TPF..Unless Laquasa would seriosly reconsider his stance on international matters, than it's highly unlikely he would ever get my affirmation..

[Regarding Laquasa Isle. I seriously suggest no one RP with him for the time being, simply because he does not know how to. He provoked a war with British Londinium, well aware that doing so would result in E.V.I.L. invading him. I personally warned him of this, if he attacked BL, we would dog pile him. Well, he tried to cover up the attack with a really shitty post about terrorists with pipe bombs blowing up a skyscraper, but we invaded him anyways. He claims we are all godmodding by attacking, because we do not have a good enough reason to do so. This is a blatant violation of the standard rules of RP'ing, and he go's on to say that he does not agree to be invaded, unless it is a 1v1 with BL... however all of us desire to attack. I thuroughly warned him of the consequences, and now he refuses to accept them, picking out nonsense reasons to ignore the attack.

Now he is just OOC'ly bullshitting untill he can find allies to fight the war for him. That is not how you RP, and until he IC'ly responds to the invasion, which is completely realistic, we all need to simply give him the 'silent treatment'. If GASN has any respect for RP, which I know they do, they will ignore him until he changes his ways.]

What do you people not understand about "Closed RPs"? That post was supposed to lead to a closed war thread, but BL knew that I could easily beat him, so he denies this.

OOC: Except, the war wasn't closed. Face it, the way you've been acting OOCly and ICly, people want to invade you.

Closed RP is a bit of a misconception.

It is a limited access RP (meaning you need a direct reason to get involved not the standard: 'my leader saw it on the news and wanted to get involved')

Not surprisingly, similar war against the GASN was on/off/on/ceased* due to a miscommuniction whether it was open or closed.
=======
*War ended when a peace treaty was signed, war was started when some allies RP killed other allies.

Those injured parties wanted to get revenge, or at least get reparations, but the aggressor reused and chose to view any hostilities as an act of war.

Then their respective alliances kicked in... followed by 3rd parties who wanted to 'get in the open' by causing mayhem.
=======
And chances are EVIL will not listen to the calls for peace.
--------
The biggest lynchpin to the arguement, is if BL agreed to a 1v1 closed RP.
Which would be the IC/RL equivilant to claiming they don't need any help to pwn LI.

Hmm, I feel kinda foolish now, since I didn't want to consider it a possability, mostly for two reasons:

1: You wouldn't fit into what BC called a "traitor within the GASN"
2: You didn't have IC access

I even went so far as to think it was TPF, even though he didn't have any IC acces to that information either, almost solely on the fact he was the first to point the finger at you.

For that I apologise.

Questers fit BCs description up to a certain point, and that was were he only had IC access to half the designs, but I noted his OOC interest in mounting dual turrets onto the Katana class, even though the majority of the GASN ruled in favor of single gun turrets only. It also would have to fail to account for the fact that Questers ICly hates the CA, since it is a 'regulated free market' they are promoting...

And for that, I apologise.

Now I owe Blackhelm a small apology for thinking that he managed to copy-paste the Katana all by himself...

He had help.
I apologise, but you really need to get into your IC paranoid persona BC...

I find it hard to beleive that if I really tried, I could get agents to infiltrate every level of your nation's infrastucture...
(I've already managed to make an airbase disapear, and infiltrate into one of your largest airbases and POW camps, and into your nation's capitol [and remember, 5 agents are still missing and pressumed dead], and you still haven't changed security policy)
------
And to Dephire, you sort of broke some of that OOC trust we have with you, we'll still forgive you, but some of us may never trust you again.

Besides, I'm not one to hold grudges...

[Someone points at my rants about NS draft, and GMCMA refferance on Charon thread]

Okay... nevermind, but in this case I'll make an exception.

If Questers is a member of this alliance, we want to join it too. Consider this an application.

Zackaroth is hereby added to the pending list.

The Britannic Commonwealth of Eurasia seeks admittance to the GASN, believing that we have/will fulfil the membership requirements. On a side note, this is not a "alliance-shopping act," but spurred from our withdrawal from EVIL and the CA, partly forced upon us by a surrender treaty, but partly welcomed by us due to the fact the that those alliances failed to fulfil their obligations to Eurasia.
