I've filed a report on three region griefings just like this one earlier today, and three more where the rules were broken to a lesser extent. Should I make a thread every time I file a Mod report on stuff like that?!?

Hmmm....

Sorry, I panicked a bit. I'll have to check with the other mods if this should be standard procedure or if I've just made a very embarrassing blunder. :oops:

If nobody reacted fast enough, the region would have been deleted and the Founder's status removed. That might have been the objective. I just moved my puppet in there to keep the region open.

Great action Cog. This is the kind of action that makes this game worth playing and fun :lol: You just remembered that you are not a game mod. I think you are cute 8)

Balottonia should tone down a bit. At least Cog is doing something!

Ah, usually they password protect it to prevent the region from being salvaged like that. I didn't even check! :oops:

BTW, the main reason to put a puppet in a griefed region is to preserve the evidence. Once a GM gets involved whomever is Founder at that time can be changed quite easily :).

"Venom Army" has been endorsed by "Spam Bombers" and "Python Force". I have reason to believe that these are somehow linked to "AlphaC" and the griefing of "World Pudding Alliance".

I remember "Spam Bombers" and "Python Force", I filed a Mod report on them earlier today for griefing a different region. (note: that was and is my interpretation of events, a GM has the final word on whether or not it qualifies as griefing)

I'd like to point out that the current incasion of European Union in itself isn't a griefing invasion right now, although I agree that considering the nations involved and what they've done to other regions before, it becoming a griefing invasion seems quite likely.

But yeah, I thought the "Official moderator message" could've been toned down a bit, especially since nothing illegal is happening in that region (yet). Oh well, it's better to do all the learning now as a Forum Mod than later on as a Game Mod.

I thought the "Official moderator message" could've been toned down a bit, especially since nothing illegal is happening in that region (yet).

Given that I did not have conclusive proof of illegal activity by these nations, I should have (at the time) kept it toned-down; you are proably correct.

However, I now feel that I have enough evidence for a game moderator to delete all three of them: "AlphaC", "Spam Bombers", and "Python Force".

Although "Venom Army" is being endorsed by "Spam Bombers" and "Python Force", I do not yet have conclusive proof against "Venom Army".

I will not send TGs this time, because they will not be able to come in anyway, unless there is a TG send to all the natives by the crashers. I personally think that there is not enough proofe that they broke the rules. After all, they may have send the password to all natives.

Grievers can (most of the time) only grieve 1 region every 24 hours, so if spamming or bothering another region, let the natives file a complain about it. I am sure that these guys will be punished before they can grieve another region.
Btw. Most grievers know what is the best time for attacking a region, without getting bottered by a mod. That is why they do it now, and no mod has deated them yet. We just have to be patient, and fill in a HELP form :wink:

Please amend this. Invaders can ban a few select nations...etc.

If it's a legal invasion, these folks aren't griefers. They become griefers when they do something that's clearly against the rules like clear out the entire region against the wished of the residents.

I have already contacted his other nation to find out what is happening, this does not seem like AlphaC at all, I hope to get an answer from him soon. and that was before I read this, I noticed that his nation had been deleted and was wondering why. now I see why, but I do not believe that he would do that with out something having had happen.
11-09-2003, 22:01
The Nationstates Mafia also does something like this, they send something like 10 people into a region, vote for one of them to become delegate who then ejects everyone else, password protects the place and they all go back. Is this what is refered to as grieving?

Some of them have got wise now and jump from region to region during the update and can hit many regions in the same update.

That's poorly worded but you get the idea.

I think Cogitation has been okay on this, so far as I can see he's been an enthusiastic player rather than flexing his Forum Mod muscle.

Some of them have got wise now and jump from region to region during the update and can hit many region in the same update.

That's poorly worded but you get the idea.

I'd elaborate on this, but I don't think that I want to clarify the idea for those griefers who don't know yet but would like to take advantage of this.

I think Cogitation has been okay on this, so far as I can see he's been an enthusiastic player rather than flexing his Forum Mod muscle.

Thanks. :)

I'll be teaching two new classes:
Chaos 101: How to Hit the Panic Button
Chaos 102: How to Imitate Chicken Little

:lol:

Well I'm off to the European Union to get a helping hand chopped off.

:? Huh? What's that about?

Most of these regions are quietly roleplaying or chatting about fly fishing and extreme ironing. They have no idea what an invasion is.

When you turn up during an invasion and endorse their delegate if they manage to figure out what might be going on, they tend to assume everyone's invading and eject the lot of you. I've seen it happen where they eject everyone who's endorsed them and not the invaders because the invaders sent them soothing telegrams.

So I've learnt to not take it hard when the people you help flame you in response. Just a bit of solidarity their with Corinthe :?

Also you might want to look at;

The New World Empire

World Factbook Entry: I intend for this region to become a region crashing superpower.This will require the merging of many regions in Nationstates however the end result will be worth it. All nations, it is recomended that you join the United Nations so that you can be part of the invasion force.A group has been set up so we can plan invasions with more security check out http://groups.msn.com/thenewworldempire.You must apply before you are allowed to view its contents this allows us to screen for trouble makers.

UN Delegate: The Rogue Nation of Insane Refugees.

Founder: The Dictatorship of SYTHlA

Thanks for the free publicity. But As I have stated in so many threads now.

WE ARE NOT GRIEVERS.

Thanks you for the public service anouncement against us though.

Just as an observation for those who seem confused.
I believe there is an AlphaC, and then there is also an Alpha C. Note the space. Perhaps one of these two is your good samaritan and the other the griefing region crasher. :?:

Ah-ha!

Eshek is correct. "Alpha C" resides in "EWL Training Grounds"; I have heard no reports, but I'm not a Game Mod. "AlphaC" was deleted for griefing.

"Alpha C" and "AlphaC" are different nations, but the same player.

I'll ask a game mod to look into this.

Huh? Does it matter? It's not illegal to have more than one nation.

Hmmm.... Now that I follow my own standard advice.... Probably not.

True, but if someone cheats with one nation, it at least count as a strike against their main nation.

I'm pretty much sure that the ACC was behind this invasion
