Embassy Row Cleanup
« on: October 02, 2015, 06:43:53 AM »
Non-political issue here, just a clean up of the embassies here. We should remove the regional embassies that clearly have no interest in maintaining relations with us. How about we go down the list and determine who and who shouldn't be removed.

This isn't a torching party, let's be pragmatic. Let's start with a baseline, like 3 months no posting activity in the embassy/no regional update/no post from the dignitary, give them a probationary notice that if they do not respond in two weeks with a regional update or a promise to maintain relations we'll put their embassy destruction to a vote.

Any objections? Any other thoughts on what the baseline should be?

For example, regions that might fall under this category might be, Australia, Equilism, Jethnea, Lazarus, Osiris, Renegade Islands Alliance, Spiritus, and the East Pacific

Lazarus, Spiritus, and The East Pacific are our allies. To close their embassies would invalidate our treaties with them and nullify those alliances.

I think it would be wrong to close Jethnea's embassy. They were once a powerful region that fell into inactivity, like we were. I don't think we should end our long relationship with them like so many regions did with us when we were in the same situation they are.

I feel ambivalent about everyone else, but I think it's worth noting that Taijitu herself has not published a foreign update in quite a few months.

Not to mention Renegade Islands is trying to keep itself afloat. Abandoning them now would be both wrong and in bad taste.

I don't even know what half these regions do, so I'm all for it if they don't really care.

Yeah, we should keep Jethnea/Laz, I don't really care about the others.
