Democracy Was More Fun

How Canadians feel at the moment
I feel plain and utter indifference to Rylde having taken over the country. A while ago I'd have been up in the ranks and yelling about giving the country back to the people. The truth is I like the game better with the bitter squabbling and intrigue. The fact that now there is only one guy in the lead and he's clicking all of the buttons is annoying, and the fact that we can do next to nothing about it is even more frustrating.
The last time Canada fell under dictatorship, the entire community fell silent and the forums went dead. I even went inactive after a while. With no outlet for my opinion, what's the point in even participating? Maybe this is what people in current dictatorships feel. Nothing we say matters, so why say it?
Rylde at the moment of the dictatorship update.
The truth is, I liked this game. I still manage to find a special place for it. I'm mournful of the fact that at the mercy of a few, we're going to sink back into inactivity, where we only escaped because of one person (Rylde) deciding they'd had enough.
But then again, if you don't like something, why participate? eRepublik is not beyond saving. We can still make this game better, if only they listened.
If only they listened.

No, This is more fun
Seeing Butthurt articles like this written is way more entertaining that the regular drivel

And the descent into darkness begins.

he did turn good in the end...
Like hell he did. His last mortal acts were committing murder, and then suicide. May Chthulhu bless his ever-black and mechanical heart.
But he banged Natalie Portman and gave birth to Leia.... Life goals accomplished!
That was before he put on the walking iron lung and became Darth Vader, though. As soon as he got his name, no more helpings of Padme Puddin'.
More ridiculous hippie delusion.
Every time you people say something positive about democracy, I punch a baby lamb in the face. Since Rylde liberated us from your godawful reign of beige terror, you cumbergrounds have been responsible for more lamb-punchings than any other era in history. Congratulations.
You are insanely on fire the last couple days.
Son, I'm always on fire. I only grace the good people of eRep when the mood takes me.
Love and peace man, love and peace.
Yep, I love to leave my enemies in pieces, if thats what you mean.
Awesome Canadaball!
Just the usual turmoil for your entertaining pleasure.
Everyone just play your parts and have some tumultous fun.
Du bist ein gut Mann. Demokratik Canada ist die nur Canada!
I think bringing real life lego attacks into a game is going a bit to far but I'm in agreement with the rest.
Your all idiots...and apparently the French influence your getting is the problem. I don't understand how eCanada was better under democracy...It was apparent that the months before the dictatorship, congress was mostly inactive, the CPs were not proactive at setting up fights where we could get may Battle Hero and true patriot gold. Taxes were too high. Now taxes are reasonable, BH's and True Patriot are attainable. If you don't like the opportunity for easy gold, then LEAVE...go home to eFrance. I hear they are running low on players who don't know how to play the game.
Also funny...this author is obviously a DMV3 lackey...look at this awards, no Battle Hero awards...only a few Super Soldier awards..By the looks of the stats and the why he writes I think he is either a CLOSE relative of DMV3 in RL...or he is an alt of DMV3. What does everyone else think? You play the role of detective. Read a few of this guys articles, then read some of DMV3s...How many others are alts of DMV3 or Aries?
Buddy, do you know how practically impossible it is to get a BH nowadays? I pump 2.5 mil on a battle at my limit, and some guy comes around every time with 2.6 with the potential for 2.7 more. It's just impossible nowadays.
