NationStates Jolt Archive

Just curious. What are some of the qualities that decide, for you, whether to move to a new region, and which region? If you're already in a region, what brought you to it?

Similarly, what do you consider a "good region," generally, in NS, to be like? How would you be able to tell a good region from a bad if you saw it?

The posts in the Regional HQ have to be interesting. It also helps if the players already there aren't a clique who circulate the delegacy among themselves.

I just joined this game about 4 days ago. I found it through friends of mine who play it from the web site http://www.bookcrossing.com
They had already made a nation, called BookCrossing, so I thought I would join it, seeing as they had invited me. We're very small, but I'm happy there.

I generally look for:

a. Nice people.
b. Dedicated players.
c. UN Activity

I like to have people that I know in charge. (In real life, or before nationstates)
