[TBSP] Secession of the eUS Forums
Arrden
By the powers granted to & bestowed upon me by the brothers and sisters of The Blacksheep Party, and by democratic process of The Blacksheep Congress, I hereby officially announce & declare the complete & total secession of The Blacksheep Party from the eUS Forums. After years of insults, ridicule, and disrespect for our opinions, proposals, and our very existence in this nation and on these forums, we shall tolerate it no longer.
When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of eRepublik, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of eRepublik and Administrators of eRepublik entitle them, a decent respect of the opinion of the players of eUSA requires that they should declare the causes to which impel them to the separation.
I. The years of disrespect, insults, ridicule, and absence of basic decency for our opinions and very existence.
II. The absence of decency and respect for our patriotism to our country, and our willingness to obey the Laws and eConstitution established on the eUS Forums.
III. The careless and reckless misuse of our nations treasury through the unjust & discriminatory body known as the SCI
IV. The discriminatory & prejudiced choosings for the members of the body of the SCI
V. The tyrannical choke hold of power (and flat out completely & utterly boring) of the choosing process for the eUS Speaker of the House.
VI. The absence of justified punishment based on bias, prejudice, and partisan reasons for an elected member who had openly violated the eUS Constitution
VII. The repeated attempts at the unjust overreach of power from the eUS Forums to in-game eRepublik based on bias, partisan, and discriminatory reasons
In some stages of these oppression's we have petitioned for redress: Our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury.
We, therefore, the Representatives of The Blacksheep Party, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the supreme judge of the eWorld for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good people of The Blacksheep Congress, solemnly publish and declare, That this united group, and of right ought to be free and independent; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the eUS Forums, and that all political connection between them and The Blacksheep Party, is and ought to be totally dissolved. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection granted to all players by the Administrators of eRepublik, we mutually pledge to each other our eLives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.
In closing, I leave a statement for those who call the Black Sheep their enemy....the people who hate us...and for my fellow countrymen, and political colleagues on the other side of the aisle….
“ With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds, care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves “

"IV. The discriminatory & prejudiced choosings for the members of the body of the SCI"
For the record, I've offered at least one BSP member a seat on SCI, when it opened up. That offer was not accepted.
[removed]
Also I doubt we would have accepted anyway.
It was Jadiv. With SCI being a time-sensitive organization, usually used for emergency mid-battle requests, I wanted someone who I knew was easy to get a hold of and could respond quickly.
Jadiv fit that bill perfectly, and is fiscally responsible. He replies quick in-game and can often be reached on discord. So, I asked him. Unfortunately, he turned down the offer. You can ask him yourself.
Well, look at that. The pig-disgusting cp wants to create a schism in the Black Sheep Party by naming names.
Tell me: are we releasing Polisia to eUkraine?
I asked him for his permission to provide his name. He said yes.
It has long been the tradition of the eUS Military, from which I came, to take a very limited role, if any, in government. I am trying to carry this over to WarInc. Commanding a large MU is enough.
I consent to 'serve' in congress to protect the interest of large MUs, such as WarInc, but that is about as far as I go. I will continue to keep an eye on all aspects of congress that might effect my MU.
I appreciate The BlackSheep Party for the platform they give me to undertake this work, and I also understand why they have little use for the eUSA Forum. It is far more a food fight than a functioning body of eGovernment. I at least will continue to monitor the food fight and throw an occasional rotten tomato when it is in the interest of my unit.
I don't recall the offer.
[removed]
Can't see how asking one person is an offer. If you had asked Arrden or I to ask around our party that would have been asking TBSP.
Well, I said that I made the offer to "one BSP member", not the whole party. If I need to replace people, I like selecting individuals who I know can be reliably active, and easily contacted in case of emergency.
I have a couple of seats to fill on the SCI this month. I'm always more than willing to consider people in the BSP.
Well written!

Only that?
Do you agree or disagree with what is said?
Well he makes some valid points, but I generally do not accept the way you have all taken. Better try to fix the problem than running away and encapsulate yourself in a micro community.
But, dunno you've all been here for so long and its my 4th month in eRep, so our perspectives are different. Maybe if I have had endured years and years around my mindset would be different.
Anyway I wish you all best of luck in whatever you are planning to do. I hope I would see you around in whatever form of micro government you decide to arrange. It would be a shame to loose so many active and cool players (yes, even you Phil, I actually think you're cool 😉 ).

The problem was beyond fixing!
What you don't understan😛 the game community is the REAL community.
Don't call it micro-government, that's elitist trash-talk.
If you would know the numbers of people that were alienated from the game because of the meta-game, you would start a dictatorship in the eUSA!
Thank you

I agree with Feynmann, this is a well written article. I think there were better avenues to approach these points, but you guys are free to do what you will.
I think the black sheep have tried the other avenues to no avail.
Thank you

As current party president of the SFP I believe I'm at liberty to say that we totally agree with every reasoning given.
I hereby officially announce & declare the complete & total secession of The Socialist Freedom Party from the eUS Forums.
POWER TO THE PEOPLE!
Doesn't sound very democratic tbqhfamilamparampampam.
Mensch n0s3, du war's nicht dabei, du hast keine Ahnung, aber selbstverständlich ist dein dummess Geschwätz auf der richtigen Linie deiner e US Freunden: , die schweine-wiederlichen Elitisten
Was macht die Liebe?
"widerlich" schreibt man ohne ie.

Please elaborate on how you have reached consensus within SFP allowing you to write a post in which you "officially announce & declare the complete & total secession of The Socialist Freedom Party from the eUS Forums".
The mere fact that others are doing nonsense doesn't magically validate your own misbehavior. Nor does insulting me do you any good, unless alienating others is your goal.
What gives you the right to inquire details about our party procedures and the way we have made this decision?
I don't know how one can stop being an elitist pig, maybe you can show us...try accepting the decisions of others even if you don't like them.
>What gives you the right to inquire details about our party procedures and the way we have made this decision?
Nothing. Why are you so hostile instead of answering my question? If you don't want to answer, just say that.
>I don't know how one can stop being an elitist pig, maybe you can show us...try accepting the decisions of others even if you don't like them.
I will accept them once I have the impression that it's an actual decision. You posting that you "believe [you are] at liberty to say that" is lots of things - just not giving the impression that this has been a consensual decision within your party.
I'm at liberty to say that we agree with the reasoning Arrden has made!
I announced the secession of SFP from the eUS Forum because it was a decision made by the majority of our delegates.
You want to question that?
Go ahead.
Okay.

Thoughts?
All RC members have been included in the SFP/BSP ingame group PM thread. There was not one single voice against the departure from the meta-forum.
Now stick your n0s3 somewhere else...
Not everyone in your party knows about this. Yet you claim "power to the people".
You see how convincing your vision of democracy is?
Given...
You are not at liberty to make that decision without discussion with the RC.

Thanks for that Phil.. I am a former 2x SFP Party President. You still have to ask their opinion and hold a vote. You are acting like a pig-disgusting elitist with regard to the way you are running the SFP these days.
