[BOK] PTO on YOUR Party? (RE: Communist Take Over Alert.)
Boklevski
Current state
The current members in YOUR Party are – with all respect – not the most active politicians in eUNL. After my resignation, it seems that the last good members have joined other parties in eUNL (like Huggy Les Bons Tuyaux (I&W), Thibono (I&W) and Morrowind3 (TI)) or moved to eBelgium (like Kelo-san). No PP has been elected the last 3 months, simply because nobody ran. I convinced the current PP (Nicholas Sparadovski) to candidate, in order to have someone ACTIVE to discuss my CP candidacy with (the PP before that didn’t answer any messages or whatsoever). What’s my point? YOUR Party is no longer a party, but only a name.
PTO?
So how about Pierre taking over? The best scenario is that he will make the party rise up again. What’s the worst that can happen? That Pierre will spend the few gold in the party accounts for ads, or that he will change the name into something new and make that party rise up.
Former party assets outside the party accounts, like The Belgian Party Organisation and newspaper, will not be handed over, but remain in the hands of guys like ThomasRED and me.
I don’t think Pierre will “create another communist party”. If he does, it will only divide up the communists in eUNL. And even if he would do so: I don’t see eCommunists as a threat. Why not? It just a different political view! Read the full wall of text here: http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/the-ecommunist-delusion-1386162/1/20 (really awesome article by Konrad). Conclusion of that article: eCommies are NOT ignorant/stupid, just misunderstood. But that's just a side note on the PTO thing...
Sailing again
Actually, if anybody takes leadership of YOUR Party, let it be Pierre Delvaux. I admire his activity in eUNL, and his ability to create a major party out of (almost) nothing. The WP – in my opinion – mainly thanks its current success to him.
I am looking forward to a statement of Pierre of what his intentions are. In my opinion, he is not PTOing a party. He is taking the helm of an abandoned ship.
Pierre: good luck!
Kind regards,
Boklevski
Founder and 3 times former Party President of YOUR Party

Good reaction, very clear.
I mean who cares?
The YOUR party isn't active anymore, that's true, but we don't know Pierre's intentions (he should have let us know via the media, which he didn't). I don't think his intentions are wrong, but it's not irrealistic to say this is a way to get to the money in the YOUR budget.
That gold was once donated by passionated members who wanted their gold to be spent wisely for the sake of YOUR. It should be used for that intention or it shouldn't be used at all. It would not be fair to the YOUR members and politics in general if Pierre would use the money for the sake of his own party.
@ Mitch: It's not a big deal, but still: I do care. 😉
"That gold was once donated by passionated members who wanted their gold to be spent wisely for the sake of YOUR."
That 6 gold? Well... in fact, it's two of my gold to help Nicholas run for PP last month + two of Pierre's gold to run for PP this month + two of your gold for running PP this month.
Additionally, if it would have been about the gold, he would have taken ProgressNL, I guess... 😉
hmm, good ideas guys, i will immediately check out if there are some gold mines, ehm parties which can be taken over 😛
@ Shakerr: Best party to PTO would be I&W with 121 GOLD! Sure, it's a bit tougher than YP or ProgressNL, but you like challenges, right? 😛
Thanks for the kind words, Boklevski!
@Boklevski: Great plan! In my last hours of PP of LSD i just ordered our 70+ LSD members to join I&W and hijack their party HQ, which will lead our country in a revolution, towards an healthy eCountry, which will benefit us all in the end 😉
