Foreigner in eIreland
LtAden
Hi. I think that this couple of months I spend here allow me to write this article. So, here it is: eIreland in the eyes of foreigner.
So to start with, i'm from RL and erepublik Poland (and yes, I know - there are enough of RL Poles in Ireland 😃
) (Some of you might have noticed it because of my grammar and typhos in messages and comments). Some time ago, ePoland got wiped out by Asteria alliance. Then, it existed under their rule - everythin had to be approved by them. This situation caused huge cross-party arguments, if not wars (as I mentioned in AoifeNiBhriains' article). Everyone blamed each other - nobody felt guilty for existing situation. Then I decided - I want to keep playing, but not there, as long as those stupid arguments are in progress. So only thing I could do was changing county I was plaing in. Only english-speaking countries were an option, as I know only my native language and English.
My first try was eUSA - but it was a washout. No responses, no nothing, basicly. Then, Ireland caught my eye. I heard quite a lot stereotypes - most of them nice. So, I gave it a try. My second CS application was approved (and I still remember by who - Thanks!). So, my new life has begun.
eIreland isn't a big country, speaking of citizens. What came as a shock, everybody were so nice. No arguments, no insults - exactly what I was looking for. Effect? I started to spend more time on erepbulik (in ePL I just worked, trained, and fought - nothing else). Here? First steps in politics, more activity in... a lot of things... For the first few months, I thought this is just a first sight - that it will become worse after a few months. After... 3 months, it's still the same - biggest argument (by size, it was rather a strong opinion exchange) I saw was about RL referendum. Nothing was left from my plan to just wait for situation cooldown in ePL. I'm going to stay here for longer. Thank you people!
Just have to add this. This article weren't written just to crawl - this is my honest opinion. And, well... I like to make other people happy.
So, yeah. that's it. Thank you all for making such a nice atmosphere here 🙂

"No arguments, no insults"

There are no foreigners in eIreland,

You say there are no arguments...mmm must work on that 😃
we agree on lots of things. we argue about methods.
Hmmm whs, so many times you called me a PTOer I don't believe what I read 😉
