[IA] Where do you WANT to be?

Incredibly Awesome...
That is what we once were. What happened? We used to be an active bunch, standing together, fighting together. It used to be all for one and one for all. Now it seems to be everyone for himself.
I joined the IA because I wanted to be here. Because I believed in them. Not because I felt I had to or I owed them something. No, I joined because I was proud to be part of the IA family.
In a few days it is congress elections. We have asked IA members to give their names up on the forum should they be interested in running for congress in order for us to run a poll. We got three names!? Really? Is that how little you feel for your party and country?
No one is forcing you to be part of a political party, in fact, it is not required by eRep rules. You join a party because you want to. But then we do expect at least some kind of activity. I prefer a party with 10 members who is active rather than a party with 30 inactive members. And I think this goes for all parties.
Think about where you want to be. Really want to be. Get active within your party. It is time that we stand together as parties. We used to fight together as parties, not individuals. Parties used to support their members or their credo's. We lost the bigger picture somewhere.
For the die hard IA members, Ines is gone. So is Grim, Vee, Mad Jo, mulderpf, etc. yes, they were great PP's. But that is over. We have lots of potentially great PP's if you give them a chance and work together.
Rise from the ashes and show eSA what we are made of.
Let us become INCREDIBLY AWESOME once more!

I'm actually quite surprised that Ines and Grim were IA folks.

Ines started Phuza Thursday, AND she actually co-founded IA!
Ines is such a MILF
Join us If you want 100% active party.
I can't wait until the collective nation PTO's your sad excuse for a political party.
Would be nice if we can be like we used to be. We need a more dynamic congress and Parliament. Like we had in our hey days. Look at what we have now. Members who mostly only care for themselves and the 'status' it brings them. For the rest, they do nothing. You don't see them on the forum, no articles, what we do have on the forums is the in fighting, mainly because the rest don't really care. Even our CP and VP are not even that active anymore.
Here here, I'll toast to that!
V!
good luck, i remember the days IA was the first and last voice on eSA politics, a real power house.
A real dictatorship
That is exactly what we need, in eSA too many fools allowed to open their mouths ; - )
Nice Article
Voted and good luck! Macedonians will soon be number one party!
My story with IA began with eSAAF. May 2011
I can remember eSAAF being closely related to IA. People like Grimstone, XB, Vanessa, Nickerball and Mark Morcom were there leading the charge. IA back then was already a semi-stagnating party with a few people wanting to move and others just running for congress. It received a lot of criticism...especially from OOP, though the 5-10 active in the party did their job and were active congress and cabinet members. IA as I remember was never elitist. It had a lot of veterans, but its veterans welcomed new players with open arms.
After a big portion of the active members defected to PSU things went down for IA. It had a good congress rating, but its members weren't as active as they used to be. It was in that period that I experienced brotherhood in eRep. El Fidel, Kaptein Balsak, Rexdeus and I were on the ball. We made a lot of progress and steered IA to great success in the congress election. It's a long time ago, but I know Had3z also became a legend in IA when he kept the party growing for 2-3 consecutive terms of PP.
Those were good times. I sometimes wonder what would have happened if I had not decided to revive the Nationalist Union.
See, its your fault... It always is! Lol!
I triggered the chaos theory...it's all going down now!
Those where the good days when everybody told me you are the leader 😛 I think it was for 3 terms in a row I was PP
