The INCI "Problem"
Teucer
I’ve gathered opinions from many people and they vary greatly from person to person. A lot of people want to combat them and try to get them to leave our country. Some want to embrace INCI because they believe INCI can be an ally. I’ll address each from my experiences with channers in other games and from the wise opinions of several other players. I’d like to thank PigInZen specifically, as the discussion I had with him was probably the most inspiring for this article.
First off, INCI are trolls; nothing more. They are simply a bunch of channers trying to get their lulz from this rather boring game. Fighting them isn’t really an option because this is all a numbers game for them. If they continue to gain members at the rate they have been, they will gain a majority hold in our Congress this month or next whether we like it or not. We can’t kick them out of the eUS or throw them out of Congress. Sure, we can keep them off the eUS private Congressional boards or out of our military, but there’s no real in game way to deal with them. Combating them also comes with the side effect of egging them on. They’re trolls and trolls love attention. The more you fight them and try to get rid of them, the more they’ll want to play. If you want rid of them, ignoring them may be the best option.
Second, we can’t let them do as they please and treat them like regular citizens because they aren’t. They aren’t here to play for eAmerica, they’re here to play for the lulz and for their own goals that are based in Turkey. That means you don’t let them into government, the military, or any other areas that are based outside of the game. Keeping them consolidated in their own party and their own chans is the best way to put ourselves in a position to pick up the pieces after they decide to quit. A framework and government can still be maintained even if we lose control of the control of the country for a short period of time. Treating their influx into this country as a PTO is the best solution. Talk to guys from eSouth Africa and see what they say about it. They have quite a bit of experience with PTOs.
The biggest problem we have with INCI is that they are not some foreign nation trying to PTO our country. They are an entirely separate entity that will not give up because they didn’t take a majority in Congress the first time. They will continue to bide their time and I seriously doubt that they will go away before they achieve their goals. Groups like INCI love causing chaos. The more Americans that freak out over their actions, the more fun they’ll have. I’m quite certain INCI was laughing like crazy after captain33’s law proposals yesterday and watching all the shouts and articles about it. I have seen the kind of damage these groups can do and they have the following necessary to do most anything they choose.
There is one hope in my mind and ironically it comes from the admins. Maybe with some luck all this boycotting and rebellion from the players will cause enough stagnation in the game to make INCI bored. Maybe with as broken as all the modules are, INCI will realize that this game really isn’t that great and will stop spending time trying to play it. But that’s a long shot and an entirely different article.
Our best option is to bide our time, ignore INCI in public as much as possible, and continue to plan and play in private where they can’t keep track of what we are thinking and doing. I hope this article was insightful and might give the uninformed an idea of what all the fuss is about. Thank you for reading!
NOTE: This the only time I intend to discuss them in public as I have asked others not to in this article.
I love to hear opinions and comments, especially if they are contrary to my own or from young players who want to learn this game!
A silent nation is a dead nation. Speak up and be heard!

"I’m quite certain INCI was laughing like crazy after captain33’s law proposals yesterday"
If you're familiar with the concept of a ragequit, I'm pretty sure at least some of the inci people were chaos'ing it up because of that (but without the quit part).

at last a realistic(mostly) article.
allright. i know inci logic and let me tell you if this situation continue what will happen.
inci makes babybooms everyday and now there is 1800-2000 inci in america most of them are low level.
if this continue at 25th march the congress overrun by inci and april 5th the president will be inci.
that will lead america into chaos.
i dont want that this is not work for me.
now inci people freaked out about "atajerk" situation and americans freak about inci.
you should know inci people dont care about this game but they care about the people. if you support them they support you. if you burn them they burn your world even if they are in it. this is senseless but it is the truth.
i think we need a solution or we both fd up.
@Teucer
you have make me write a serious comment and i never forgive you for that.
but you put the giselle funbags picture and this makes the situation even.
Glad to have your input pearlowl and I agree.
Everyone loves Giselle. ❤
and about the law proposals
it was not inci decision
we aware about it after the proposals
some of the people support but most of the people were against it.
v+c so you would stop spamming my feed 😛
Hmm....didn't we make RL laws about segregation and grouping of all people like this a long time ago? 😕 I agree there are some annoying INCI trolls...but I've also met some really awesome people in the INCI who I stand up for now and will continue to stand up for until they give me a reason to do otherwise. All I'm saying is don't group the entire INCI as a bad bunch.. There are some really good people there who want this game and the eUSA to thrive.
@stuart
i assume you talk about inci
just a hint. this is the worst thing you say a group of trolls
"would stop spamming my feed"
"if you burn them they burn your world even if they are in it"
at a threat, I say, you scare me not
pearlowl: no, it's because Teucer is spamming our feeds with links to this article
@pearlowl
My experience is that if you support them they find some other reason to rage.
@Coyote
It is not "the turks" people have a problem with but INCI itself as an organization. Also, INCI is not like any rl immigration. Think about what would happen if 400 million people from a single country came to the eUS in real life with their own government and military and a stated purpose to subject their new country to the national interest of the one they left. They further began to threaten total destruction of that country if they did not get what they want. That is more like what is going here. Though some individuals of INCI might be nice, the organization is either determined to destroy the eUS, or it is simply willing to do so at the simplest provocation.
Also, INCI just proposed war with eCanada.
@ aurelius
this is the solution panpa
the rage
just direct the rage to another direction not america and see how it works 😃
@lietk12
ok panpa
if you want we can spam you too(just kidding)
@george
i dont threat, not my kinda way
I see what your saying Pearlowl.
I am much to cautious to play around like that with fire though 🙂
Overall, I don't see INCI as malicious per se. I just find the org to mercurial and hard to predict. Combine that with the power INCI has amassed and you find the eUSA is trying to ride a thunderbolt.
aurelius i am in the inci and even i dont know what the fc was goin on most of the time.
yes its like playing a fireball. if you can throw it away from you, you can have a great weapon. if you put it on yourself you burnt youself.
so that is the real problem how can we get inci s attention to another direction.
i dont think we have too late for that.
Aurelius, I'm speaking of 3 members of INCI in particular when I say they are my friends, my brothers. And I will do anything to stand up for them. But everyone groups them in with the trolling INCIs 😕
Lets just admit we f'ed up big time.
Instead of just ignoring the entire group at large, we should continue friendly relations with those that are willing to cooperate.
Making some friends now might pay off later down the road.
"i think we need a solution or we both fd up. "
^ This man speaks truth.
But yeah, moral of the story is that hot girls transcend cultures, amirite?
Good article, Teucer. Voted.
We must spread the love of Atatürk immediately and without hesitation.
AWESOME article
Well, if we want to burn the house down,
just pour more gas on the fire.
Yelling at INCi will not help us.
The best way to stop this is to just STOP.
That's easy to understand in English and Turkish.
"Talk to guys from eSouth Africa and see what they say about it. They have quite a bit of experience with PTOs."
Oh indeed!
This problem happened to coINCIde with various other changes in the world political situation, thus INCIting an INCIvil War. Their prINCIple of invINCIbility and provINCIality (particularly with regard to language) INCInerate any hopes of cooperation. I wish I could sink my INCIsors in their sINCIpita, thus evINCIng, without any mINCIng of words, my frustration.
The INCIvil War has begun.
