Re: I am Officialy lost
I hope I am neither smug nor annoying, but can't you see how describing two nations as smug and annoying in what purports to be a serious explanation of the hobby might just come across as, say, smug and annoying? The leading theory right now is that Scott knows that and is just rolling with it at ...

Re: OAM bans Micras nations
It doesn't help either that the scope of the hobby is intentionally confusing. If you're a Trekkie, you have an unnatural love of Star Trek, but that's pretty harmless other than to your social life. But micronationalism is formed on the idea of creating seperate countries. To a lot of people, I can...

Re: OAM bans Micras nations
I'm pretty sure I did nothing of the sort. I'm simply stating that, if you're going to be an adult and a serious micronationalist, as in seriously trying to claim real land as a separate country, you'd better be a serious micronationalist or you'll be branded as an eccentric, a looney, or a criminal...

Re: OAM bans Micras nations
The problem with real-life micronationalism isn’t so much physical exertion (though it could be, damn it’s hot these days) but a combination of 1) a lack of space to build a physical micronation and 2) a lack of convenient real life micronationalists in our areas. I’m close to 30. I don’t live in my...

Re: Claim
Your first claim should be continouous, and then if you continue to have an active, functioning micronation for a few months you can begin to claim small colonies here and there. Theoretically, there should be reasoning behind the colonial claims, but usually the council approves about anything unle...

Re: A Question
Harvey, however far removed these Antican and Babkhan plans are from your original idea, by your own admission the very thought of radically changing the MCS in such a manner was your own. You must therefore be able to have some understanding as to what they're doing, and to what end- we may disagr...

Re: A Question
How in the world did you come to THAT conclusion? Everything I've been talking about is old news, an idea I had 6 months ago that discussion thereof diverged into an idealistic debate. I have no clue whatsoever of whatever Babkha and Antica are plotting in the present time, but whatever it is, isn't...

Re: A Question
Edit: in retrospect, I don't think I want to continue this. And I REALLY don't want to be the Bastion poster boy any more. Let's just agree to disagree and then agree to do nothing whatsoever.

Re: A Question
Isolationism maybe death, and the more I look around the community and the state of it at the moment the more inclined I am to agree with you, but that doesn't by extension mean that the only solution is joining the Bastion Union. I understand how it may appear like that. But it seems like everyone...

Re: A Question
I think I resent the implications that organizations on the Bastion forums would be controlled and/or persecuted because the admins of those forums are also member states. Or something along those lines? You lost me a little. I'm not really sure where the disconnect is here - why is Craitman a "micr...

Re: New Charter! (not an awful one)
Am I correct to believe that this is merely a rewrite using stronger, less confusing language and that attempts have been made to not actually alter the content of the Charter? In this regard the role of the MCS is to document the dispute, not mediate it. Same as a journalist documents an ongoing wa...

Re: A Question
Yes, I had anticipated several diehards opposing on principle, but ultimately decided it wasn’t a big deal. No offense. Leaving would certainly be your prerogative and choice. But it would hurt smaller nations far more than it would hurt the MCS. Micronationalism has always required community to sel...

Re: A Question
I'm a little annoyed that these twats took my MCS opposition idea and didn't even tell me Which begs the questions 'what idea?', 'why?' and 'no, seriously, what would be the point?'. Well, it’s beyond moot since I haven’t pursued it in close to 6 months and the prime moment has passed, but the gene...
