voted, you are 100% right, I would have loved to have written this article.

Voted, these are the right questions to ask. Nobody should be elected just because it's their turn or they're the oldest; it should be because their policies are the best for the country at that time.

Thanks Talon. No disrespect to you.
Your by far one of the greatest politicians in the eUK.

But i think a lot of people are upset with TUP at the moment and i don't believe forcing in another TUP president is what is best. But either way you'll do a good job, whether people like it or not lol.

missingno, I disagree, he's not the greatest politicians, and I don't bite the "experience trap" any more.

The eUk wanted the old experienced same old president back in June over a new candidate. I have little sympathy for those saying 'we want something new' now. xoxo

In fact, Keers was the perfect let-them-wipe-us-that-Polish-will-save-our-b***-afterwards president. So experienced, that nobody would have noticed if we were ruled by a cat .... xoxoxoxoxo

I don't want something new, it's not new opposed to old , it's something that works opposed to something that hasn't been working for months (years?) xoxoxoxo

You do yourself a great disservice, Greatmoff. A lot of people wouldn't have voted for me until you started campaigning, and released your manifestos - you have only yourself to blame for losing. Also a bit odd that you are renowned as being incapable of listening, yet comment on an article where someone simply wants to be heard. I chuckled.

As for this month, meh. Its nice we have an alternative, if nothing else, the glorified inaugurations of the past few months are less than preferable.

To improve forum moderators there is set that neutrals can do this job. Are there any neutral persons in the UK?

About a TUP CP, it is the people that decide. This year we had CP's from 3 different parties.

So it is not true we elect again and again the same.
Always you will find people that do not agree with the government, but as we are a democracy we should accept the decision made by the population.

Its not just the bias with regards to moderators, i think its the immaturity they also show towards moderating. A good moderator will only use infractions as a last resort and a lot of the time a simple humerous remark defuses and solves the problem instead of treating the poster like a child. Sadly this is something that doesnt happen and the moderating is either draconian or they like to see their own coloured warnings.

Ergo Deus...a new mod and i have to be honest - a perfect choice for moderator. In the past he has spoken up when moderators have chose to hand down infractions for anti-social behaviour (i know...i'm guessing that mod never went into a town centre on a weekend night?) and also when they have been disrespectful.

But as for the game itself there is too many party lines at times. Other parties will back TUP for example but wont get the support when it comes to being both ways...

everything revolves around forum? really UK? really?

And thanks for the link Niemand..it was like a most wanted from Crimewatch. It was nice to go back and just see how some parties have changed with regards to power and size

Review of the 7 CP's prior to the 'Polish regency' this year;

Kravenn (TUP) - 1st and only term.
Temujin94 (TUP) - CP for the 3rd Time.
Talon Karrde - Turns his first CP term into a repeat.
MBeE Sir Humphrey Appleby (UKRP) - The forever Minister of legislative affairs/speaker/etc.. gets elected on his 4th attempt.
OBeE JamesW - Former TUP(and UKRP) member, founder of ESO gets elected for his 6th CP term.

KBeE Iain Keers (TUP) - CS czar and former SG of ONE takes his second turn in the CP chair.
BigAnt (ESO) - First and only term.

The CP and all the other 'grown-up' positions may be open to only a selected few in the nation BUT it has to be said that when the eUK has elected a relativly fresh player to the CP position.........Bad things happen!


Disclaimer: I wasn't in eUK for BigAnts term but apparently (from conversations, articles etc...)it was almost as bad as Kravenns term.

TL😉R Talon is experienced, level headed and (whilst not exactly in a great field) has been one of the UK's best CP's.

Safety, Security and Stability = Vote Talon
Want Drama = Vote the other guy.

I believe in missingno.

Very smart words from Alfagrem.

Smart words indeed.
But that is the Alfagrem that during Canadian occupation, moved to Canada and tanked for them against us.
Just sayin.

Ad hominem doesn't make what he says any less relevant.

You never know somethings good till you try it ; )
Or you can just follow the advice of Alfagrem, the eUKs favorite traitor and follow the same old routine.

I didn't advocate either choice just pointed out what they were. I don't get a vote on the matter so wheter 'same old' or 'adventures' is chosen effects me little.

As long as your policy with respect Poland is the same as TUP's (i.e "tak pan prezydent") then any changes/drama Llamas will be limited to internal affairs.

There are certainly different ways to run the eUK but you're going to be fighting the weight of history, tradition and establishment to implement any radical change.

and at the end of the day, to paraphrase one forum moderator....

"The Forum is not a democracy it is the ownership of one man. If you don't like that then feel free to not use them"

use something else is the solution, it seems.

Good article missingo, an interesting read. voted and subscribed.

Good luck in the election again too.

The UKPP did explore using a separate forum (viewing it as a UKPP forum in response to the 'traditional forum being for TUP, UKRP and ESO) but words such as 'divisive', 'secretive', 'brainwashing' and 'uncooperative' were floated around.

So my paraphrase should really of been...."The Forum is not a democracy it is the ownership of one man. If you don't like that then feel free to not use them............but we will bring down the world upon you if you try offer an alternative"

A lot of what you say makes sense. But then I look back at your previous articles, a lot of rabble rousing and general bad behaviour, and then a trite little apology and a freemason article to re-invent yourself a little bit. Just looks dodgy from here buddy..

I think very few deny that the forum is too tightly controlled by a certain individual, however a president has very little say in this. However, this individual isn't Talon, Talon is a good person who isn't omni benevolent, but is largely a good person who did well in his previous CP terms, is experienced, level-headed as said above, but if you'll check through his terms previously, he did keep people who didn't go on the IRC or forums updated, Talon doesn't posses the flaws pointed out above.

Although, nice article missingo. You're the underdog here, but I wish you the best of luck in your endeavours, however I will say having more ministerial experience would have been to your benefit, and acquiring some would give you a better platform should you run again 😁

Hey Thedark ace.
I've spent most my elife in the eNetherlands. There i collected a lot of political experience, mainly in the ministry of home affairs. Check my wiki page:
http://wiki.erepublik.com/index.php/Missingno

I know you've got experience abroad, as have I, whereas I know that what I've done abroad counts for a lot less than if I had had those experiences here 😁 Once again, good luck and I wish you all the best with your campaign

I agree with everything you've said in this article... It could have been written by myself and no one would have known the difference. However, one thing has blown me off..... and that is your response to Talon's comment.

"Thanks Talon. Your by far one of the greatest politicians in the eUK."

Talon, and his band of TUP brothers are the reason this country is doing so drastically bad. TUP keeps putting the same old power-hungry people into power and they do it every month!

sir nick griffin, as true as the morning light of tomorrow.

I think the best president for the eUK is someone who can listen.
Someone who hears what the people want and reacts to that.

We're still looking for that in Real Life as well after several hundred years, so not much chance of it happening. Just there for the expenses.

Now that tomorrow is now today, I can confirm that 'tomorrow' is overcast as hell... I am not sure if there is a metaphor somewhere or just the british weather...

Just sayin.

A few days before he left, I was in the MOD IRC where I caught Talon and Big Ant discussing how much better the eUK would be if Alfagrem pissed off to another country... And then when he didn't consult people first as to where to move to, people called him traitor.

Actually, people were calling him

a traitor anyway due to his disagreement with the Irish peace deal and the giving up of Northern Ireland and Scotland....

There is a long list of things you could accuse Alfagrem of, but calling someone that the other people had been actively trying to force out of the country a traitor for going to the other side is laughable in a way.

Everybody who has ''power'' in this game are out for themselves above all else...doesnt matter what party they are in...they are all the same.

Human greed will always show, whoever it is this president, the old, the new or a foreign conquester.
The best we can hope for, is that they realize the best way to become powerful.
Become respected.
