Title: The shape of things to come.
Post by: Sovereign Dixie on January 04, 2007, 12:23:09 PM

 Greetings Taijitu!!

  Most of you know me, some of you new recruits won't. I would like to thank you all for being here, your presence in our region is a showing of support for the Ideals that this region was founded upon. Ideals we have been fighting for for a while. Courage, honesty, respect, freedom of speech, freedom of government whenever possible, and freedom *from* government whenever necessary. Most importantly, the ideal that no one in this region is above the law, not even myself and the other founders.

 I am serving as interim Delegate, until it is decided who shall replace me, or if I shall remain. The initial decision may be made by a founder vote, with subsequent elections being held according to a Charter which is still in the works. Other things will be coming, positions in the Legislative body, Ambassadorships, etc... we are literally building from the ground up, and I am looking forward to working with each and every one of you.

 My door is always open. If you need anything, have questions, or just want to say hi. Please do no hesitate to PM me, or IM me on AIM, YIM, or MSN. Our primary focus in the coming days will be recruitjng new nations, as well as getting the structure of our government worked out as soon as possible.

 Together, we will accomplish great things, not just a new region, but a new philosphy in NS government! A revoloution of new ideas, knocking down the walls of convention, with the steel fist of innovation and teamwork. Together, we shall make NS history!

 Thank you all!

 Freedom!

So why everytime I wanted to ask something in MSN, you changed your status to "offline"...?

 Keep in mind, you're 7hours ahead of me, when you're getting up, alot of times, i'm going to bed. I dont block anyone on MSN or anywhere else unless they give be shit, then I'll block. If I log off when you come on, then it simply is coincidental. I'm not on MSN all that much, anyways.

ay Senor,

A number of people have talked and hinted about the high principles and values that were aspired to in the lexicon, and which the founders have brought to this region in the hope of seeing them realised.

 For the benefit of myself and others, maybe, who were not a part of the Lexicon, what would you say those values were, and how would you hope to see them fostered?

 The values of Taijitu closely to what we had been told The Lexicon was about.......

 Freedom to play the game how you see fit. Meaning, we also will be "neutral" capable of both raiding and defending. We will have friends on both ends of the spectrum. Invading at times, and never failing to defend an ally when possible.

 Freedom of speech. We have an edge on this, using an SMF forum, as we do not have to adhere to the InvisionFree ToS. SMF is software, not a host. Therefore *we* decide what is acceptable and what is not. We plan on allowing freedom of speech as much as possible, short of flaming and blatant offensive behaviour.

 Equality-We are all equal here. The Founders are serving an initial role as the government, to help get things set up. That's about it. We will seek positions within the government the same way that a new player off of the feeders will. If we do not care for a delegates policies, we'll simply challenge them in the next election, or seek impeachement in the case of misconduct. But not matter what we do, it will be within the laws of our region.

 Community- We will be, and are, more than just an NS region, we're a community. We are going to foster that in as many ways as possible. We want people to feel accepted regardless of NS leanings, or RL beliefs and views.

 Respect- Very simple, treat others the way you want to be treated. This is perhaps our highest value of all, if you follow this, than everything else kinda falls into place.

 All in all, the values of Taijitu can be summed up in one word........

Freedom!
