On the UK PTO
Bucephalus92
Greetings Bros,
I recently had the pleasure of moving to the UK for the purpose of assisting in their ATO operations against Serbians that had infiltrated their community. The irony of course is that I was once denied UK citizenship because they thought I might be a PTO threat.
Initially I had planned to simply cast my vote and then leave the UK to return to the United States, but after seeing the situation here and reading this article I decided that I would put out a short article before I left. Obviously this article is coming out a little late, RL (work, drinking, and being way too hungover) got in the way. Oh well.
As lain mentions in his article the threat that the UK is facing is not so different from what recently happened in the United States. A little over a year ago I returned to this game to find the United States community in complete disarray, reeling from a PTO threat perpetrated by Serbians and led by a complete and utter moron. The media was filled with articles that had had hundreds of votes bought for them (sound familiar) and were filled with vitriol and mudslinging. Accusations and fingerpointing ripped our community to pieces, I personally interacted with numerous new players that joined this game during this time. Unfortunately they inevitably got caught up in the hostility of the times and quickly became burnt out, being tricked by the propaganda of the PTO and never knowing what the truth was. Without fail these players would leave the game.
This is the true danger of a PTO, and why I personally find them so contemptible and dishonourable. A PTO may cause you to lose your regions, or your treasury, these losses are surely great but the truly inestimable loss is that of the damage caused to the community. Some of those players may very well have been the next Ligtreb, Josh Frost, or Lain Keers. We will never know.

I suppose that before I start rambling (too late?) I should just come out and state my main point.
PTO's are the greatest threat a nation in this game may face, bar none. For this reason and nation facing a PTO needs to come together and put political differences aside until the threat has been eliminated. The most important things that can be done now is for the UK do develop (if they do not have them already) a set of guidelines for approving citizenship approvals and punishments for those who break them. In the US congressmen who break this procedure are censured from congress. Another thing which the UK must do is reach out to allies for ATO voters, which they have obviously already done.
Lastly it is important is for the UK to maintain CONSTANT VIGILANCE in regards to this PTO. Even after we broke the back of the PTO in the US we continue to maintain strict guidelines for cs approvals. We also continually take over the party that is operated by a small number of Serbian PTOers that remain in our country.
Before I end I would just like to say two things, first to any ally of the UK that is reading this article. Should the UK put out a request for more ATO voters I would encourage you all to strongly consider moving to help them its what you would want them to do if your community was under attack.
Secondly, to the UK I would simply like to say good luck, I know a PTO sucks but by working together it can and WILL be beaten.

F**king CSRF attacks.
Does anyone know what happens to this article if I change cs? Does it stay in UK media, get moved to US, or get obliterated?
Oh, and thanks for reading.
I think it stays here - thx for helping with ATO and a very interesting article, v+S
thanks
Stays in the eUK, 90% sure.
Though, sometimes, they get moved if moved right after posting it.
thanks
I couldn't have said it better myself Buce
There was no PTO thraet. It was just to wipe New Era. And the current dictators try make the people scared and hope to get votes, so with their lies they PTO'ed New Era. Just to keep Acroc and his gang safe on their throne
What is so dangerous is you actually believe what drivel you just said
It's impossible to believe the undecipherable.
Very true, it's sad to see, I've never questioned the political prowess of the war machine at the top of New Era in it's recent history, they continue on in the lovingly named Vendetta party. The grip they have over the minds of their followers is cultish.
I never have issue with someone not agreeing with me, but wilful failure to think for oneself is dangerous to everyone. Guess we're all just lucky this is a game 😉
he's not the only one that thinks like that, mick
yeah i know sven,thats why it is all the more sad imo
NE was PTO'd by the Serbs. Courtesy one of the NE so-called leaders. From there the Serbs planned to PTO the eUK. If your leaders had been honourable none of this would have happened. But one or two rotten apples spoiled the whole NE.....
So you came here just for the vote? In political party elections?
It was a complot against New Era by the current state leaders, and they imported 15 Poles to vote against New Era PP. So they PTO'ed New Era just for their own glory
lol, 15 voters from Poland (about 30 from Serbia to help you doing your attack on eUK) and by what votes hollenboer lost?
2Nieman😛 Most top parties gang together against Hollenboer. If they all voted in their own party, than Hollenboer never lost.
But it was New Era against the other top 5 parties, that was very unfair.
And even in New Era people collaborated... so yes, this way you can win.
But with FAIRPLAY you never win!!
It was fair. People placed their ideas beforehand and all was within game rules (except all those multies that voted for hollenboer, luckily many are banned). And indeed people inside New era were also on the hand of the ATO and against PTO. It was almost all of eUK united, best thing that can happen.
You'll never be able to convince dappers dutch multi-account that anything they did was wrong so why bother responding to the looneys' ramblings
well i like the memes

Once you were from a hostile nation to eUK, now you are a friend. Times do change. Thanks!
Well, respect our UK Serbians also, they are here as friends.
There are some Serbians with UK citizenship friends with UK, I know, however there are a lot of them that are not friends with eUK. I respect almost all of them, friend or foe, but knowing who is friend or foe is very important.
Times eUK suffered because of eUSA - many
Times eUK suffered because of eSerbia - none
First is true, but now eUSA helps eUK.
Second is untrue, many from eSerbia have fought against eUK lately and eUK lost many battles because of that.
eUK is in different alliance so it's to be expected that you have players fighting occasionally against it, especially with all these new medals. eUK has never lost any regions because of eSerbia and eSerbia is against any kind of PTO of eUK. The friendship between older players is too long to be overpowered by the absurd claims and generalization presented in this weak article. Yet another piece of herd propaganda without list of exact names you're fighting against.
Niemand is talking about the times we were in the same alliance. Many times Serbs fought against us. namely for Ireland.
Most eUk players have no problem with Serbia, what they have a problem with is a select few Serbian players.
eSerbia and eSerbs are not a homogenous society. Many cunts, psychos, funny and boring, mean and polite players. I have no idea what eSerbs you're referring to but the ones I talked to, like Clairvoyance, seem like very nice, down-to-earth, ready to help eUK people. He told me numerous times he has no intention of PTOing eUK or to do anything bad. He could be lying of course but so far I've seen nothing bad from him that would suggest so. The only thing I see is a power struggle on your political scene and few dozen inactive eSerbs who ran away from the boredom called eSerbia, who you're so afraid of. FFS, 70% of them haven't even voted in PP election. Fact. You can take it to the bank.
Thanks for your insight, confirmed what I've been saying about the future of our PTO loving party. Life would be so much easier if we all put the country first and foremost and not as some lofty goal that allows for scheming short term destruction.
Thanks for sharing this and for your help in the recent election. The eUS is a great example of what can happen if you let a PTO get a foothold. The destructive force is way beyond lost regions or treasuries. A lost community will never be repaired.
First picture had me in stitches
hell ya bro, good advice right there.
Good article.
Discussion on a citizenship approval process has failed to start every time I was in Congress. There is talk for a day or so and it dies. No will, no law.
Ultimately you need a body to recommend for or against an applicant stating reasons and then allow congress members to make an informed choice. But with top parties importing people to win elections being rampant, its unlikely to ever pass as common sense.
woooooooo o7

What is clearly needed in Erep is a Judicial branch 😛
There's a reason why all democracies have one
Independent of government?
Ideally, but here I would be satisfied with independent from Plato 😉
