Rant from President of eJapan
Sumeragi Akeiko
All eJapanese, stop fighting in the eJapanese or eROK RWs.
Frankly, I had enough of the complete BS that has happened in the past 48 hours. Aside from the fact eROC had taken it for granted that eJapan would listen to its every demands, I'm incensed at how some MU captains have been negligent in keeping the daily orders on the RWs, and also at how people have been fighting millions of influences. This is an order: do NOT fight in RWs anymore. I will not expect you to fight for eROC nor will I be hiring mercenaries to fight (despite pressure for those particular measures), but if you truly care about eJapan, for Heaven's sake stop fighting in RWs. I understand the frustration, but aggrevating the situation is not helping things.
Ranting aside, SORA Chung and I have done discussions trying to get a resolution which might satisfy both sides, and a basic outline had been ironed out. Unfortunately, given the changed circumstances due to the RWs, it seems I might have to directly be involved in talks involving the eROC Government and Congress to get this cleared up for once. For too long interest groups have been stalling any talks for solving this problem, and I want to use this situation to get this over with.
But before that time, I wish to convey the thoughts of most eJapanese to eROC: Most people do not think of the relationship before the successes of the RWs as friendship. Rather, they think of it as a master-slave relationship, where an arrogant eROC takes things for granted. I get it that you want the resources, and I get it that you want to keep eROK occupied. However, invading with less than a 24 hour notice to block congress elections, going on with the paranoid fantasy of eKorean influence in eJapan (if there were such a thing, how would the most hated person in eROK, Sumeragi Akeiko, become President?), and general closing of eyes and ears by the eROC to discussions have built up into frustration and rage on part of the eJapanese.
In my discussions with SORA, I quoted the following:
老子 道德經: 大國者下流 天下之交 天下之牝 牝常以靜勝牡 以靜爲下, 故大國以下小國 則取小國 小國以下大國 則取大國
If eROC truly wants friendly relations with eJapan, remember this timeless quote. Only when both sides are "equal" can there be a true relationship.
This has been the rant of Sumeragi Akeiko. May true peace in East Asia be established.

Voted!
Aye-aye Sir!
Translation:
I must tell you "NOT TO FIGHT FOR eJAPAN OR eSK IN THE RW's" to keep us from being permerrased by TEDEN, but what I really mean is that you should do it as much as you can as inconspicuously as possible, so please no BH's. Stay out of the top 5 if possible by spreading your damage over two RW's (although this is less effective) and only tank if there's a real chance of winning the round and stay in the shadow of a bigger tank.
... remember, screenshot or it didn't happen so deny, deny deny. If evidence to the contrary is presented, you will be officially labeled a traitor by the government and banned from holding office for the foreseeable future.
Good luck, and God's speed.
Long live eROC! (ofc I actually mean eJ & eSK)
Protip: If there is a screenshot of you hitting but not on top5 list or BH, just say you accidentally entered the wrong side and only hit once before you realized your mistake

I think this is not the right move ...
We do not need extra enemies:
1.In a very Moldova;
2.Its neighbors;

Has eROC given us any indication of what we can do to satisfy them? It's hard to believe they were honestly that paranoid about Japan which remains a very weak country. If they're going after our resources you'd think they could at least be honest about it and if they're genuinely paranoid about us being controlled by eROK they need to give us a concrete pathway towards normalization. Give us a timeline for releasing control of the remaining provinces.
An outline for an agreement had been ironed out (as I wrote above). The success of the Shikoku RW completely changed the equation, with almost all of eROC now out for blood.
Great.
:/
Voted, for gods sakes people, STOP FIGHTING IN THOSE RWs.
I think the people have stopped fighting now.
Sumeragi don't expect your people to always follow you.
Remember this is just a game that people play for fun
@Flameyglenn
How much fun will people have if we have no regions and our country starts dieing slowly?
All right, all right... It's not that they can't take them back, but its good to show, that they aren't omnipotent and can do as they please. I think it helps our relationships on the long run to show them we can do millions of damage too. Like when the chinese guy popped up to do 10,000,000 damage in the last 30 minutes and he still lost against us..
It's a good lesson for us too, that we also collect energy bars, not just them, we also use bazookas, etc.
Most of eJapanese have stopped fighting now.
Majority of Resistance War Fighters are from outside countries.
Let's not forget that the mechanics of the eWorld encourage us against these strategies. How can you collect a True Patriot medal if you don't fight for an eJapan RW? Making an alliance that forces an eJapan citizen into a situation that causes us to forfeit certain natural resource bonuses.Truly the only way for this to work is to have them assimilate all of our citizens into their culture and if that's what you want, then I can see that I am a citizen of the wrong country.
Kashikoi is the problem, we should ditch him in Moldova.
Ouibster, ever heard of temporary ceasefire to facilitate discussions? Or is that too foreign a concept for you?
Lol. and why was the last RW un our campaign of JAPAN
And now starts the fighting.. 😁
I'm just watching personally...
JyM22, there are some irresponsible citizens doing as you suggest but that is not what the President is supporting. Please do not make accusations against people like President Sumeragi, who are doing the responsible thing and fighting for eRoC or for our allies overseas.
One thing that concerns me, is that it was mentioned most of Taiwan is out for blood after the RW in Shikoku, if that's the case then I wouldn't mind taking up a defensive position as a precaution. But since it was also mentioned that negotiations are being followed up, and kinks are being ironed, chances are, things will calm down after everything is said and done.
"You can please some of the people some of the time, but you cannot please all of the people all of the time" -Abraham Lincoln
k, So its obvious we all agree on invading Moldova.
Voted and continued support of presidents orders 🙂
@Kashikoi
Yes. We invade Moldova.
I'll do what President order but I have the feeling, getting stronger, that we'll never be anything more than eROC puppet.
I hope you are not laughing behind our back with your so close friends of eROC.
Maybe it's just me being paranoid and you'll reassure me soon.
~v~
To a point, we have already shown them that we will not be a puppet. The number of fighters fighting for Chubu, even against orders, was considerable. The large number of fighters in the RWs forced both our government and Taiwan's to take us seriously.
If we can turn around and help Taiwan keep Chugoku, it will be a very helpful show of good faith. eRoC has no Fruit region otherwise. Taking Chugoku would not help us, so it makes more sense as a good-faith gesture than as a bargaining chip.
Kashikoi.
Good luck)))
If you guys keep thinking that eROC treat you like puppet, then there will be no end of arguing.
Because we treat you as a potential threat when you keep insulting.
You will become a rival and there is no trust between us.
Without the trust, there is no peace at all.
So stop whining and show the faith that you are not enemy of eROC.
Then we can keep negotiate and find the way for mutual profit.
So Beefa what you are saying is we should let you occupy our regions essentially for free? It doesn't make any sense to occupy those regions other then resource gain. The only whiners here is Taiwan.
@ Beefa: The fact that the eROC hardliners consider eJapan a threat indicates the irrational paranoia. Frankly, I'll say this: The way a sizeable faction in eROC goes about trust while giving none at all is highly disturbing, since it borders on hypocrisy. Trust is a two-way street.
eROC should go back to making my eElectronics 😉 I need a new eDVD Player 😛 lol /sarcastic joke
Some one is not thinking this thing through with any real effort. We the citizens, besides needing to fell proud to be a part of something great, need to be able to achieve our personal goals such as Daily orders or Missions. Not fighting will severely diminish our ability to do so. being a part of something great seems like a long-term goal at the rate things are going, but citizens need to be able to grow. Being able to meet our individual in-game goals should not even be a part of negotiation
But at the very least, we should be able to get them to allow us that.
