Question about writing issues.

"[stats]political freedom increases, public apathy increases"

I was reviewing how to write your own issue and I had a quick question.

Is "apathy" a tangible thing in Nationstates?

Such as Civil rights, Economy, and Political Freedom?

Are there other things like "apathy" perhaps "interest", that affect nations.

If so does anyone have a list of them?

Thanks,

There are more factors, but there is no public list. Nor will there be such a list.

See http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=419230 for why.

Thanks!

I'll just stick to the basics in the FAQ.

Mattr0ckaWell, I've always thought that there should be a few extra scales (maybe in NS2) such as Military (from Outlawed to Invincible), Crime level (from Nonexistent to Crippling), Political Apathy (from Nonexistent to Crippling), and so on, but that's really for the designers to decide.

That's an interesting idea! Why not stick it in the NationStates 2 forum?

You mean no one put that in as an idea for NS2? I thought of that a long time ago.
