Question on founder of Soviet Union

Random sadistic freaks

My region, 'Soviet Union' once had a founder, ages and ages ago, the nation Illogic Highway, however, he was deleted due to inactivity of all things, and certainly hasn't made any effort to come back into NationStates. I've looked through the forums and it seems like in some cases the mods are willing to put in new founders. I was wondering if you could possibly let us make a new founder for our region?

Thanks,

Dan

Moderators rarely place a new founder at the head of a region. The only circumstances that I've seen, where a founder is put into that position is when the region has been griefed.

And it usually needs to be a severe and or history / serial sequence of grieffing too, as I recall, along with other factors no doubt. Case by case, and all that.(other then when mods want to thrawt an otherwise undefeatable invasion?)Not really relevant to raise, so please dont ?

Not really relevant? Really? It's not relevant to bring up the time when Neutered Sputniks invented a founder in Hell to impede a successful invasion? Not really relevant to bring up the revival of founders of Japan and Massachusetts during an invasion? Honestly, I don't agree... these are obviously instances in which the moderators clearly are willing to play around with the founder question.

Dred Pirate Roberts, You've been posting a lot of useless posts in Nuts & Bolts. You might want to watch that.

We don't assign new founders to regions except in exceptional circumstances. This doesn't qualify.

well, i'm still waiting to hear about the "official rules". I plan to be hanging around here until there is a clear answer on that. I (and others) deserve a clear response about the rules, as we deserve a fair opportunity to decide whether or not we want to continue playing the game.

What qualifies as a "useless" Post? I've haven't seen this directed at others, in seconds I can make a generate list who'd deserve it too. Where's the equity in that?

In all fairness DPR... you've made threads on this topic... this thread is for the 'Soviet Union,' not Hell, Japan, or Massachusetts... I think this is what Salusa was trying to say...

Hanging around does not imply (nor require posting). Wait all you want, it won't affect what we do or when we do it. We have internal time constraints which must be worked with.

A useless post would be one that contributes nothing to the conversation and (in your case) has a tendancy to be for the sole purpose of moving things off topic and/or accusing the moderators of wrongdoing. I've just looked over your past 15 posts and I'd say that at least 6 of them were unnecessary.
