Noting today's rather haphazard performance of RP involving Ryazania, I would request the following.
I believe there are several flaws with starting RP and conducting it in such a random "omg let's do it, damn the reasons" fashion
- Involved nations must give direct approval
- In cases of war, where direct approval is not logically going to be acquired, RP must be thorough, with actual reasons for engaging in war. In said thread where Bustos and Varkour attacked I saw no actual reasons behind the attack, and no attempts to persuade the populace it was the right thing to do. The only person ive seen to have not lied about the aims of a war was Saddam before he attacked Kuwait.
- RP'ers must first make absolutely sure that the nation involved does not already have plans for their nation.
- A nations own decision to handle it's sovereignty (such as Ryazania directly handing control of Ryazania to Myroria) should trump RP council decisions.
- I would like it if said transition was RP'd but that's fine...

Baltija handed me his nation and territory, yet I did not get it...
-
hmm true, maybe former Ryazania shoulder just... disappear... like Baltija
-
I think thats sounds like a good idea actually
-
And I don't. I'm not banned, and Ryazania doesn't just 'dissapear'(unless of course there is nuclear retaliation).
-
hmm true, maybe former Ryazania shoulder just... disappear... like Baltija
My point exactly. Or, as Rya originally proposed, that is HAS collasped and nations want to secure its gold reserves as the reasons for invading.
-
About Baltija's actions, they are completely irrelevant. Ryazania wants to RP with a new country, while Baltija was banned. Besides, Ryazania can't disappear unless Oz consents to it, just like Oz could have, if he'd wanted to, kept Baltija on the map or split it into NPNs.
Point is, the two cases are different.
However, I don't know why I'm here, as I'm not participating in this RP, and I'm supposed to be condemning everyone who does ;)

Just surrendering the whole thing to Myro doesn't really do anything but make Myro more powerful, especially since the transition wasn't even RP'd. It's like birthday gift without the card. It ain't always the thought that counts, it's usually the receipt and the $50 inside the card that's worthwhile.
-
Also the fact that a few hundred thousand troops (Rya said this was the number of Myrorian troops in Ryazania) cannot secure 1.8+ billion people.
-
The people wouldn't exactly revolt. We've done nothing to anger them, and we've installed an autonomous government in Ryazania that can make laws at the colonial level. And Ryazania said that I now have control over Ryazania, case closed. You could attack it, but it shouldn't be in that thread, which is why I closed it. And, if you did attack us over some gold, your standing in the international community wouldn't exactly skyrocket.
-
With five nations attacking for gold, I doubt my international standing would drop all too much. As if I care anyway.
-
My main concern at this juncture is: resources and finances of Ryazania, how are they to be dealt with by Myroria?
-
At best a jewel colony, at worst a nation in chaos.
-
I've reached a truce with Varkour, came to a ceasefire with Oz, bombed Veramark into submission, and sold land to Dysanii. It looks like you're on your own.
-
LOL
-
so...is half of Taijitu in nuclear fallout or not?
-
The capitals of countries that came ashore of the Easterosian continent were launched at.
-
In other words, they get what they deserve.
-
In even other words, yes, half of Taijitu will be getting the fallout, should the capitals be unprotected. Check the latitudes.
Also, wouldn't the colonial administration be getting blamed for nuking several nations?
-
Probably. We'd sincerely apologize and fire them, appoint new, just as incompetent ones, and maybe send some money to people.
-
I am /ignoring most of the RP on the basis it was hasty, not thought out, and simply conducted in a truly poor manner without any clear objectives. Everyone jumped on a bandwagon, said "i want land" and didn't consider the repercussions. Since many people may be new to the RP scene, I would not punish them for their first mistake by saying their entire homeland is a radioactive wasteland and they will resent you for the rest of their days for it. Instead, why not say "your cherries been popped, be more careful next time"
-
Yea I had posted further, but deleted it, ignoring the whole event.
-
your cherries been popped, be more careful next time"
Yes, but isn't that process usually a little painful?
-
Maybe, but it's better than being raped.

agreed, it makes you prefer women.....
-
But PUR, not all pain is unpleasant :P (imo. anyways)
Though I'm all with you on preferring women ;D
-
So now that the map is updated and the former Ryazania is now part of Myroria, is this going to get under way?
-
Xyreal would have a massive amount of influence over ryazania, since the only sea port outlet is controlled by him.
-
And I choose to flaunt that influence :D either ask for access or be shot at, and expect to be shot at anyways on Ryazanian soil by militias i fund... i highly recommend coming from the east and not the western approach
-
yea because we'll help blow your asses out of the water. the east is against foriegn invasion.
-
And the river that flows from the east is a lot like Cajun country. Hehehehehe.
-
indeed, hence why my country is like louisiana meets brazil.
-
Portugese inbred rednecks?
-
well more like the people of the french quarter except more gothy with brazilian weather and a few Portugese inbred rednecks living in the bayou. lol.
-
Myroria's people are a mix of a Victorian lumberjack and/or other worker with the comfort of a small town citizen.
-
Ozia is a mix of Scientists, Doctors, Bureaucrats, Mafia men, Fre'zhi, and of course Moaci Cheap Labor by the gun. . .
Always wondered when my nation would get challenged against for oppressing Moacis....
-
When you dont have a 5 billion pop... ;)
-
Heh, you're all cowards :P
-
As long as you dont piss off the higher pop players at the same time to unite against you. ;)
