I have to agree there. GT, Being Australian look at the Greens. They are the closest thing we have to Social Democrats. This is what I am trying to achieve.

Now get where I am comming from. I AM NOT A DICTATOR. THE US IS JUST ANTI- SOCIALIST

True, but you did station them in a disputer area, what do you expect to happen? We threaten anyone with war if they attack our troops, but since they are in our nation, that is unlikely.
We don't expect them to be attacked because they aren't there to fight, or attack anyone else. They're there, as we have said, to protect civilians. Sheep has threatened them with attack for being there, which is why we are prepared to fight him.

I'm not trying to tar communism with that brush, but you have to admit that absicaly every communsit regime this century has turned into a dictatorship (the only exception that I know of being Nicaragua).

There are plenty of other nations which are socialist and yet are classified as democracies. You haven't been. Deal with it.

You *DO* realise that you already established yourself that Nuclear and Chemical weapons were used by those forces. There's a reason the UN says North and South Sheepsta are "notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape". Not my fault if you're ignoring context.

No the fact is that Sheepsta is and still should be a jungle covered mass. This is how I envisoned it and as it is MY creation this is how it should BE!

Why should it still be a jungle covered mass when there were Nukes and Chemical weapons thrown around (A fact you established yourself)? Just because you originally invisioned it as being jungle covered doesn't mean it stays that way forever. Both the "UN" and all the RPing that's taken place agree on that point. Live with it like we all do and stop whinging. Geez, if you think I originally envisioned Alecrast as being a wasteland, you must seriously be deluded. But am I complaining? NO! I'm running with it and playing the hand I've been dealt. Why can't you?

Do you think I like fighting for MY nation back, NO of course not. However I am going to do it until either I win, or I discredit you in fron of everyone. You want to make it personal, its personal.

If there is a shootout, and I stand in the middle, I expect to be shot. Colateral damage. There is a war there, if you wish to station troops there, they may well get hit, through no intention of anyone else. Even by Alecrast. If you are hit by them, woudl you go to war?

Because you can have jungle and Nuke/Chem weapons. Look at Vietnam. It's still mostly jungle. It can be jungle and barren though. That is because of anti-green policies, rather then chem weapons.

However, you dont' expect to be shot on purpose, nor do you expect to be shot if you're standing in front of a group of innocent bystanders.

Only if we determined it to have been deliberate - as was our policy towards Sheepsta until they declared that they would consider any attacks on our troops to be collateral damage, rather than trying to prevent them.

The circumstances being

You were (apparently) sick
This didn't stop you from posting in taxing Diplomacy games many times, showing you were perfectly able to have continued with something as untaxing as Nationstates (Visit the site once in 21 days or get deleted, joy)
You didn't post in the Nationstates forum during that time
You didn't check your nation once during that time
You waited until about 2 weeks after your nation had died (I only did my thing 1 week after your nation died) to speak up.

I would think the circumstances do support me.

IMO, it's not your nation. You abandoned it. Do you think I like having to fight with you over it? I was looking to create an RPG situation which could lead to some interesting political manovering in the courts over if them being my protectorates was legal or not. You've turned it into another damn war.

Now, I'm not going to back down until I win RPG wise, one way or another (ie. If you make things so that there's no other solution, well...if your nation is destroyed militarily, no matter how much you complain, it's over). As for discrediting me? How do you propose to do that? You're the only one making an arse out of yourself here.

I was sick and had limited time on the net. NS suffered because of it, but I was still contactable. If Anarchic had askjed I probably would of said yes, but the fact is he didn't ask and makes me think he stole it

Perfect timing.

Kindly inform me how, no matter how much limited time you had, that you could make all those posts in diplomacy and not visit the nationstates site just ONCE to maintain your nation.

His nation died and was removed from the Nationstates system when he didn't log in for 21 days. 7 days after this happened, I did my RPG thing with it. Shortly after he came back, I started North and South Sheepsta as actual nations on the Nationstates site so I could demonstrate their social, economic and political freedoms with RPG evidence.

As I recall, that jungle took a while to regrow, correct? Plus Vietnam never suffered the Nukes. Things grow back, but not that quickly. All this has happened in the space of less than a year RPG wise by the way I'm measuring things. Now if it was 5-10 years, then I'd concede the point.

Archaic has a point, but as Sheep said, he was stil contactable. I think a PM would have solved a lot of this. However, can a compromise be reached.

Sheep: You have New Sheepsta, is it possible that you could RP and brand 'Old Sheepsta' as corrupt and that your people have moved on or something. And thus consider Old Sheepsta overtaken by other authorities, while all willign Sheepstan people,a nd their legitimate governement, have moved on to new pastures? Just an idea.

Moreover, it took a huge reforestation campaign to repair things, and there are still many areas that have been rendered totally lifeless.

A year is a day in RL. Thus it is rather more than even 5-10 years. This was stated by violet IIRC, and is also worked out looking at population (1-10% per year)

Like I said, it's taken decades for the jungle to regrow, and that's been in a state of relative peace and stability.

I don't think we can use that here however. There's no way this situation would've dragged on for decades. 1 day RL = 1 week to 1 month IG would work IMO.

well... It depends how much was destroyed. If more then 30m% was I would be surprised, and after ~10 years, I would guess at least 10% has grown back, thus it is missing ~20%. Of course, this is just a guesstimate, but it is justifyable that there is much jungle left IMHO.

Possibly. Possibly not. Remember, in this time, you've created and grown your country, it takes decades for a nation to develop, and decades for courts to decide on action, with appeals, etc.

Maybe so, but I figured that he had no interest in Nationstates anymore anyway, which under the circumstances was certainly a reasonable assumption.

Perhaps. Though I think with timespans that long there would have had to be military action before now.

No. I made no mistake in not contacting you. You had, for all intents and purposes, abandoned your nation. Now stop being such a petulant child already and admit THAT.

I admit that I was sick, and with limited time I had to make piroities. Howevr I also confess to being online and contactable. You made a mistake in not asking, Taking without asking is called stealing in every culture I can name! As for being a petulant child, I wonder indeed if you have ever grown up yourself? I have hell I have a life off this computer, geez my girlfriend too was a piortiy over this, was that wrong? I don;t think so!. However I do not feel I need to suffer at the hands of a moronic stuck up good for nothing player that wishes only to spite me because I decided to make life intresting beforehand.

Hell lets see how do you like this.

ALECRAST GOVERNMENT HAS DISSAPERED< NEW SHEEPSTA SAYS IT IS GOING TO ANNEX 'PEACEFULLY' AND THEN OCCUPY IT THEN MAKE IT A PUPPET STATE< THEN OCCUPY IT AGAIN UNTIL EVERYONE FORGETS WHY I AM HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE AND JUST AGREES WITH ME!

HELL WHAT A GOOD IDEA!

Don't you just love it how Sheep assumes I'm out to get him, and that just because he's taken it all personally, that I must be too?

Sheep, you aren't answering my question. Stop dodging it already. Kindly inform us all how, no matter how much limited time you had, that you could make all those posts in diplomacy and not visit the nationstates site just ONCE to maintain your nation.

As for calling you a petulant child, stand back for one second and take a look at how you're acting. Getting pissy at me because you screwed up isn't going to change anything.

IMO, you had ABANDONED your nation. That means you surrendered your rights to it. The nation ceased to exist for practical purposes, so I used it to do my roleplay. ANY nation in the region could've done that. I only picked Sheepsta because it was the closest empty nation in the region. If GT had gone for a month in the way you had, I would've done it with Centralis. Same with Karakas, or any of the other close nations. YOU were the one who abandoned your nation, so stop trying to pin the blame on everyone else.

Oh, and BTW....

ALECRAST GOVERNMENT HAS DISSAPERED< NEW SHEEPSTA SAYS IT IS GOING TO ANNEX 'PEACEFULLY' AND THEN OCCUPY IT THEN MAKE IT A PUPPET STATE< THEN OCCUPY IT AGAIN UNTIL EVERYONE FORGETS WHY I AM HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE AND JUST AGREES WITH ME!
1) If I had been away from my nation for so long without an explanation, while posting actively in other forums, I would ADMIT that I had surrendered my rights to the nation during that time. If something happened RPG wise with it during that time, while I might not like the results, I would accept them, and start anew.

2) Have you paid no notice at all to what was happening earlier? The mistake in the terminology was already clarified. North and South Sheepsta are protectorates with their own semi-independant governments, which have been partially integrated with the governments of the nations protecting them. They were NEVER occupied, and NEVER annexed.

3) The only person who seems to constantly forget everything that's happened and has been established is you. You're quite free to read the topics. It's not my problem if you refuse to keep yourself up to date, and ignore everything that you don't like.

Because diplomacy is where I come from and I owe allegiance to my roots, therefore it had a higher piority. I only had30 minutes a day while I was in hopstial to post, sometimes less, so a trip to the slow server that nation states was at the time was not feasible.

Happy now?

No. Because the nationstates server was hardly slow during that period (It got quite quick BEFORE you left as I recall), and there is no reason you couldn't have either
a) Opened up a second browser window
b) Posted at least once in the NS forum
c) Got someone else to mind your nation.

In other words....

Not. Our. Fault. That. You. Were. Lazy.

Whatever I am not going to argue with you over this, because it seems as though I am talkig to a wall that will never care whaty the OWNER thinks.

Just think about this, If the owner of a car leaves on the side of the road for a month, and it isn't there when he comes back, the person who took it stole the car. Why is this any diffrent? However if the person asked the car's owner if he could use it, and the owner said yes, there would be no problem.

See whatever else you say this cold of been solver by a simple PM on your behalf. So before you go calling me LAZY sonsider this, why didn;t you ask in the first place?

Now lets wait until the courts decide what the outcome should be

That's a very different scenario. You don't cease to be the owner of a car like that. However, you DID cease to be the owner of Sheepsta when you let your account be deleted because you were negligent. It is a VERY different thing. Think of it more like having your child taken away by Social Services because you were a bad parent. Afterall, to borrow from your attempt at an analogy, you left your child out to die in the wilderness.

Let's wait until the courts decide indeed.
