eSerbs in the media
HoeMarx
In the interest of a healthy media.
A prominent part of the eDanish authors, have many valuable qualities. But lets just focus on one of them, self-irony. A human quality, of the entertaining kind.
First of all, I'd like to stress that diversity is a positive thing. A completely homogenous society, would be more boring than watching snails race. And to this, I've witnessed clear homogenous tendencies in eDK at the moment. These fall into two groups, the pTO'ers and the eDanes. The value of self-irony in the media, is that it spawns, and furthers, positive and entertaining communication.
The eDanes
We have through oppression been joined together, more uniformly then before. A common enemy naturally amasses opposing forces. But even though the eDanes are being oppressed and exploited on their own soil and abroad, they have not lost sight of the true values of good media. The eDanes still contribute with interrogative articles, harmless slander and entertaining satire. Governing these articles, is the ever-present danish humor. Self-irony is visible in almost all eDanish articles, and especially the comments. If an eDane is slandered, they always take it with a smile, and use it to poke fun at themselves. This retains the aspect of an entertaining media, and is essential to the spirit of the community and maintains a friendly unity.
The pTO'ers
Banding up they form their own unity, maintaining the occupation of eDK. They display the behavior of encapsulated, xenophobic populists. But of course there is no need for this. They have overthrown the native government, and therefor rule the colony, formally known as eDenmark, as they please. One should think that the security that being part of a ruling majority grants, would spawn overhead for engaging in the media, with at least a playful distance. This is however clearly not the case. This group uniformly choose to exercise the media with non-entertaining propaganda, the mark of a frightened government. When accused of misdeeds, in the light of empirical evidence, they shout out with a single and multiplied voice: "troll, troll, troll". When faced with articles or comments containing eDanish humor, they never understand it, and therefor once again shout:"troll, troll, troll".
So what does this mean?
Basically it entails that communication is difficult, but not impossible. We have a difference in humor. The eDanes have self-irony and satire, and the pTO'ers apparently have no humor what so ever.
So in order to further communication, we eDanes could meet their request, and refrain from our entertaining tendencies. But there really is no rational incentive for this, as it would only suck the life out of the media.
Instead I propose that the eSerbs grow a pair.
Best regards,
HoeMarx, reminding ya'll to eat your vegetables.

Blablabla, dont seeing the mean of your article, you are bigger troll then me. Having a boring RL? XD hahahah
I see that eDenmark is still known as eDenmark, check out the map.
@ Pered
"you are bigger troll then me".
As the article states: "and therefor once again shout:"troll, troll, troll".
P.S. I can't read maps, nor a watch.
Is this an examle of trolls trolling trolls
@ Sopasifat
I would hardly regard speaking out against an occupying presence, as trolling. But what definition you have of free media, is of course entirely up to you. I however completely agree that it would be much easier for the eSerbs to occupy eDK, if there were no eDanes left. And for that, I apologize for my disruptive behavior.
"original" eDanes is / was a close knit group of 30-40 players who ran eDenmark as their private club, rejecting ANY proposals for change... They had what they was asking for and now they are whining and crying and screaming hysterically on the floor, like undisciplined brats!
Keep it comming, its rather funny to watch. I'm enjoyning the game in eDenmark MUCH more than i did for 6 months ago.
The new eDanish population are here and they are staying. Actually its not only serbs, its a international population, just like it was before. The only difference are, that the close knit group of "original" eDanes, formerly known as the "Canaster Club" are overthrown, just like i promised they would be, and the other players are in game control.
Enjoy!

"I'm enjoyning the game in eDenmark MUCH more than i did for 6 months ago"
That's the point of it this, at least for me. To try and keep the media up and running in an entertaining fashion. I don't necessarily harbor any resentment towards specific individuals.
@HoreMax
Cool... Try a bit harder then, its really a bit under your standard at the moment. Rusty from the long sleep?

Merovina +1
@ Pered
Who's whining and crying? I've been "dead" for 6 months, so I don't know every back and fourth comment. But I doubt that the eDanes, that I know from my previous incarnation, would act up in that fashion.
So Pered, could you provide some evidence of this, or are you just taking up comment-space?
Is seams like you don't even read the articles. Don't just copy other peoples comments, it's very lame.
Yes they whined, very hard. 😃 Read the newspapers (SinisterDad and "Old eSweds"😉 for last 3 months.
@Hoe..
The evidence provides it selve. Click back at the articles written in the past few weeks before your resurrection and see for yourselve.
Thinking that this game just simply doesnt cach the broad danish population, there are a little change in the composition of players but the number of RL danish players, since you took a break, and now are allmost the same. I, myself admitt, that i dont speak too much about it to my RL danish friends, its a bit embarrising and nerdish in my social surroundings.
Normally a TO like this would make a enormeous baby boom... Tsk tsk... Danish patriotism...
@ Pered
I didn't know SinisterDad from before, but his articles are in Danish, and you Pered, don't understand danish.
I don't know who/what "Old eSweds" are/is. You seem to use the term in a very broad sense.
Hoemarx it might save you some time if you knew that talking to Pered is like talking to one of those dolls with a string in that back. When you pull the string it talks, but it only knows a limited number of phrases.
As for Merovina, well you know... He hasn't said much lately, but he's all over your articles, so I guess he's a subscriber.
If the original eDenmark was a 'close-knit' group of 30-40 people....
wait...how is that a close knit group? That's an inclusive group. In fact Merovina was never excluded, until he started writing articles about how he didn't like anyone in eDenmark. That was weird but no one tried to exclude him, no one would've banned him from the forums.
The difference is that the current government is not inclusive, and that the current government has LOYALTIES to another government other than Denmark. People wouldn't really care if a group of friends took over Denmark, included all players and tried to improve the nation. The reason people got angry was because a foreign power occupied the nation, subjugated all of its capital and sent it to eSerbian groups, and then ignored everything everyone else had to say.
btw, awesome article. It wasn't meant to be funny, but I still laughed at the points made. Funny cause its true I guess.
@Per
Its late night, you cant sleep either? I just returned home to Frederikssund, visiting at chick in Larsbjørnsstræde... uhm!
Anyway
Dont ask stupid questions, that's too under your standard. If its a way to try manipulating the "public" opinion, its pretty lame. I think that EVERYBODY here knows the truth about the "old" eDanes.
@Crillep
Really, i'm glad that Hoe is back from dead, he is apparently the ONLY one who can serve some intelectual challenge at some level. Even thou he's rusty... You other guys are like headless chickens. Running around without a goal and saying absolutely nothing impressive.
Hoe isnt Back from Dead, thats the org you are stealing lots and lots of DKK with 😃
@ Merovina
Why did you visit your sister at such a late hour ?
