I'm very sick of people calling someone "troll" or "elite" just because they don't like what they are saying. Stop hiding behind names. We all have equal rights to play this game, whether we are experienced or not.
You can start by looking at anyone who proclaims themselves "awesome", then it spreads in concentric circles from there.
"how does one classify an Elite?"
A person who is a member of the perpetual leadership group.
"who decides who is an elite?"
Discrate1 does.

x2
So elite = awesome.... troll = infin, discrate an co?
IS Binda classed as elite cause I'm pretty sure Binda and I don't attend the same meetings.
Elite is just a term serial failures use to try and justify their lack of success.
For the record how can someone 13 months into the game be elite?
It was a phrase I coined in the media many months ago now when I got sick of seeing the same tired old faces elected to positions of power. They repeatedly failed in their jobs and were then subsequently rewarded with promotions or medals.
So Discrate decides eh...
That's not very "Oh so Democratic" like you people seem to persist about...
WHERE IS THE FREEDOM OF ELITIST VOTING!!
(Sarcasm/HarmlessFun/DontBeHating)
The ANP voted for Discrate1 to be the official ANP Shaman, who decides our enemies and calls curses on their names with the help of inifins voodoo.
maybe we should start voting who is elites through the forums aswell!
"ANP Shaman" lol, i am the grand wizard, i am the puppet master.
HATERS GON HATE
@Larni you dont become elite, it is either given to you by the younger genration citizens. pretty much the same way infin used to call me elite, when he was a young citizen. Even MachineMadness was called elite when we were dropbears.
nanananananananananan DROPBEARS 😃
We are the elite breed of Aussie Schoft ol' Chap!
MachineMadness was never an elite.
wait am i cool enough to be elite?
eKiwi is the new elite.
What makes an elite? I don't know the entire formula, but the main ingredient is awesomeness.
someone has been drinking the Haterade
The term "elite" is used as a pejorative term when a hypothetical political party, which is out of the power structure and is jealous of their rivals, wants to belittle their opponents and somehow justify their own state of failness by making it seem that their own failness is the fault of said "elites", when in fact, their failness is brought on by poor leadership, inconsistent policies, support of vague RL values to justify their actions where these RL values have to real importance to the game.
When this occurs, this fail hypothetical political party will often be reduced to claiming they are the only possible political party which can "save" the country, without actually being able to prove that the country requires "saving". Leaders of this hypothetical political party will begin publishing hating and trolling articles, make false assertions about activities of the government to start a panic (i.e. "fear mongering").
This hypothetical political party will also rebel against the common agreement of defending the country against threats in order to save their political identity and for political gain. When they separate themselves from the political common good of the country, then they must justify it by hate terms like calling those who are elected into power "elites", and "communists", etc.
The saddest part of all this, is that they hypothetical political party can't understand that these very actions they use to attempt to gain political superiority over their rivals are what causes their inability to attain this power, to win country president elections, and become a real driving force of change, reform, and especially successful government.
The above is a hypothetical scenario and any resemblance to actually eRep political parties is purely coincidental.
Obviously Wally Wilson's hypothetical party is the Australian Military Party noted above is the Australian Military Party. jks
hahahahaha you so funny (and off my Christmas card list)
I like to say Australian Military Party so much, I must say Australian Military Party twice in all my comments
"the power structure"
Just think... if the hypothetical party took over, then they would be the "power structure" and become the "elites". Pretty ironic isn't it?
That's how it always is when the "out of power" group becomes the "in power" group. Just look at the political history of the RL.
