My letter to the World
Kiyonori Dragnier
Dear world,
I made this newspaper to help me at sharing my thoughts and express my feelings about what’s happening around me in the new world.
I don’t expect this to be read by people and I hope people won’t expect too much from this newspaper but if someone would like to read what does a eBelgian citizen think, then this person is welcome.
This newspaper is more a diary for me and I will share it with you, the world. I’m sorry about the mistakes I made in this article, I’m not a native English speaker but I will do my best to make it easier to read.
Let’s start the first article with a presentation of myself and my story here in eRepublik.
My name is Kiyonori Dragnier, i’m a proud eBelgian citizen, everything started in Dec 22, 2011 when I joined the new world, first I was lost among the people, it took long before I tried to join the national forum.
I made my presentation, but I was more reading than writing posts, yes, I’m used to watch things around me without trying to interfere. Even if I wasn’t “active” on the forums and on the in-game shouts, I was reading a lot of articles about the people here, what was happening inside and outside of eBelgium as well.
After some months I decided to become more active in military, I joined BNA after some talk with the former commander, Tecuvo. I was very interested in the war module, and quickly I wanted to become a GoW like some some people, a soldier who could protect his eCountry.
Quickly I focused on training and tried to fight as much as I can. The more I’ll fight the quicker I would become stronger.
Later, a lot of things happened, some eBelgians left the country because of internal conflicts and the bad mood among the community, they were important for eBelgium, I was sad to see these very nice people leaving us after all they did. I’m not angry at all, I can understand why they did that and I hope one day they will give a second chance to the community.
Tecuvo left eBelgium and BNA as well, there was a lot of talks with him and people who could take care of BNA, finally, BrunoCND was chosen as our new commander, I became the second commander of BNA as well.
I never thought one day I could become a second commander, I was surprised about how fast things were happening around me and I wasn’t aware something else will happen after that...
I tried to be active on IRC as well, I tried to speak with some people, I also said to some of them how sad I was about the departure of some eBelgians, I had talks with NLSP about my desire to help eBelgium but that I was only useful as a soldier in BNA.
One day, right after CP elections I was contacted by NLSP who became CP for eBelgium and I was surprised by what he said to me. He wanted me to become an Immigration Officer for eBelgium. I was hesitating since I had no experience and he told me that it was because I wanted to help eBelgium and give a try in politics. I have to say that he helped me a lot and without him I would never be able to meet the people I know at the moment.
One month later my term was over but the new elected CP, Lily Jayne Summers asked me if I would like to become an Immigration Officer again, I happily accepted. It was my chance to continue helping eBelgium, well for some people taking care of Immigration isn’t something great but for me it was important.
Today, I am for the third consecutive month an Immigration Officer for eBelgium, I’m very proud to have meet these people and made friends in eBE community, I will do my best to serve eBelgium and continue my training to become a GoW as well.
I wanted this first article to talk about my story here in eRepublik, it’s a way for me to make my presentation here, some people knows how shy I am and this time I dare to say something in front of many people instead of staying outside watching around without trying to interfere.
I know I didn’t speak about every eCitizens I met and helped me but they know who they are and I want to say thank you to them.
Don’t worry I won’t make a whole story in every articles. As I said previously I want this newspaper to become a way for me to express my thoughts and give a message to everyone when I feel it necessary.
I would be happy if someone could give me good advices for my newspaper, I never tried to write something, and I don't know anything about BBCODE so it’s very far to be complete and nice to read.
