Looking at the future?
Boklevski
Election day… so is this just another article to ask you to vote for me or ATO?
No.
I am going to ask you to consider the future.
We see a lot of things happening in eBelgium. Everybody is talking about PTO’ers (although the definition and the accused persons differ between sides). Everybody is shouting his or her opinion on the war we initiated with eUK (in favor or against). Some say you should fight for eBelgium, other say you should fight for eUK. Some think we should get wiped each month. Others disagree.
Future?
I have to admit: indeed a lot is happening at this very moment. But regardless of the outcome, there will be a future. I think anybody can agree on that. And I want to head towards that future all together.
We need to take some rest to find ourselves and each other again. Who are we? Who do we want to be?
ATO needs to take the lead in stopping the mud throwing between persons and parties. Often, we are named within a standard line of parties (“RB/ATO/UU/etc.”), which I strongly wish to object to. ATO will not form a fixed block!
Other political parties
Ofcourse, we really value the great relations with these parties. We even have members of UU running as Congress Members in our party (including the very experience Olv007), to give UU the opportunity to have Congress Members as well. But maybe Olv007 and I will have a major (but constructive!) disagreement in Congress next week. That’s fine.
That is the kind of working all together I am referring to. Working together doesn’t mean agreeing with each other all the time, it means helping when we can.
Only words?
No. Words only aren’t going to help. Helping each other can be done in several ways, depending on what you can and are willing to share.
It can be done by a simple give-away, like in my previous article. (By the way: Cotarius was so considerate to return the prize so I can hold a give-away again. Just stating it here publicly, so I have to create it soon instead of keeping the prize myself. Subscribe if you don’t want to miss it…)
ATO-member and vice-PP SRK.PL is even having a Foundation helping new players (below level 30), handing out free tanks. Check it out here, and fill in the form!
But you can also help without giving away stuff. ATO has a personal message (PM) involving all ATO members to discuss the things going on, ask questions and help each other. You don’t even have to register on any forum (although we have our own spot there as well!), you will be included in the party!
Do you share this vision?
LET’S WORK ON THE FUTURE! JOIN ATO TODAY.

Nice presentation.
If i wasn't a member already i would have joined.
I have to agree with tommot, except for tthe last part as I'm not a member 😛 Still good to see that ATO is returning to the old times were there had been a lot of activity and where the party was still fighting to get into Top5 🙂
(Around June/July of last year, when I joined ATO)

Voted, this is a great article. Nice presentation and congrats to ATO for the CM elections.
I read this and got my idea to help - with a giveaway - for starters.

That's the spirit! 😃

yet in all the elections over the past months being a block against HOPE, was exactly what you where
Well, no.
In the CP election, we always have a poll on the forum on which candidate to support. Our members choose the one they think best, and that person we support officially (and of course, anybody can vote for any candidate; but it's about the official support that is steered by the party / PP).
During Congress elections, we - obviously - support our own Congress Members. There is no 'tactical voting' or whatever, which is more common during a PTO. Again: the voting is up to the individual members, but I don't think many vote for another party than ATO.
The PP elections are of course only about the internal PP. I understand that a feeling exists for some that people moved to HOPE, but I can state that NOWHERE (not on the forum, PM or ingame articles), ATO has asked their members to move and vote somewhere else.
Therefore, I would not see ATO being part of a block against HOPE.
