An Interview with Josh Whitehead

Day 1,389, 16:13 Published in USA Canada by Cody Caine


eRepublik Name: Mr. Josh Whitehead

What do you prefer to be called your eRepublik name or something else, if something else what?
My DJ name would be MR. giggles, I’ve always wanted a name like that. Its random, Its weird and people would be all like WTH? Was he tossed down the stairs when he was born? and that's what would make me very acttritve to players. They would want to hear from a guy with something creative and fun.

What brought you to this game?
I was very interested in joining the game when I saw an ad flying threw a game I used to play. It was MMO type game along with building. i guess you would called it a Tycoon type game. I freaking loved it and played it just like I do now for eRepublik.

How active of a player are you?
What? who? damn I think over the years Im becoming more addicted then I should be. IM on IRC for about 3-4 hours a day. Since I’ve lost my job and cant find it, I’ve been home more often doing eRepublik things. Which is not good but Im here to help with everything. All the older players have the old saying that eRepublik is like our second life. Well, I love to do say that but this a great way i can get away from drama or RL political shit and just enjoy gaming.

What would you say is your greatest achievement so far as a member of eUSA?
Raising hell and influencing folks to speak out. I think I left a good mark for folks, radio shows are popping up everywhere, Raging folks Questioning political figures. Those are the only achievements by far. I love media, i was born for it. Poltics, i love them but nothing i can do unless the political retards in EUS pull there heads out. of that dirty hole they’ve been living for some time.

When I first played played eRepublik, I really did’nt have any goals. Just play something to pass time by when sitting in class or in a library. Im happy where I am at now and glad to have meet everyone. Everyone including my family keeps calling me a Liberal, I think for the fact alot of things in eUS is just for a kissing contest no cat fights, or I have the bigger mucsles, its all a kissing contest.
For those who may not know, why did you chose to move to eSouth Africa?
I moved for the fact I’m sick and tired of fake things happening with the system. People whin and snivil for they cant get there own way or how the military bombed about what Isereal did. A lot of folks hate him but i lothed what he did, bringing the truth out.

Also, I moved to SA for the kind things they provide. a small tight community that gets things done, and the love having folks helping out. I proved them that I were here to help them out and here I am, the Ministry of Communication which is like the Department of Media in eUS. Im in the process of getting some Friends in eUS to join me. THere is plenty of room here and a voice that can be heard.
I regret saying this but I wish i started my elife in SA only for the fact on what after I've seen on eUS, its tainted blood, I dont want to be part of that anymore, i want my life drama free, fun of Entertainment and folks working together. Look, log into our forums and you will love us. We work art to reach small and reasonable goals, we strive to put out our name and IM freaking loving it!

What are your plans for your time in eSouth Africa?
um well, I’ve made a name for myself now here, jump into media, I’m getting ease into Military and I will start my Political Career hopefully the upcoming Congressional term. Damn, Im loving it.
We’re not about money or power we simply jsut want to live, make a good for ourselves and just be humans. Not some slave. Look at the history of us vs EUSA, Whose got a better reputation?

What would you personally do if eSouth Africa and eUSA were no longer allies?
Well, nothing, that’s eUSA lost, they would lose a great ally and I don’t see that happening any time soon. SA does a good job keeping our mitary folks in line and in check. If eSA was under attack, USA would step in for the fact we have very valuable resources and USA loves that. so, since we do have a small army but a strong one,not strong to take over some big ass nation that has 40k people vs 400 people. USA would come in and help if we needed that.

Also, we’ve got some young and talented players who do help the eUSA army out a bit, train them and all.

How is your media project coming along by the way?
Aw shit, I wish you didn't ask me that. the 31st of last month was my time to release the biggest media event ever. Unfortunately a RL event altered my timeline on releasing it. SO, here we are waiting. its a slow process just like when i first started it. I want it out hopefully the 30th of this month of first part of winter. All depends now about school and RL.

and Any last words you'd like to say to the readers of this paper, and or your listeners?
Well, thanks Cody for Interviewing me. I’m not to big reading interviews or doing them as i think folks like to kiss ass and all . After leaving eUS,I think something big is going to happen with the Government, changes of whose got the power and its important for the truth to come up , I’m all game. Regarding my radio show, Were going back on the air the 23rd, new home, same great taste. Good ol’ Jon Malcom. HOpe everyone check it our fridays, like today!!!
