No Matter How Many Times a Snake Sheds
Kobble
Before anyone gets their panties in a bunch, I want to clarify some things.
This was posted in the public congressional forums
I wouldn't have posted this unless his most recent article wasn't posted
This has nothing to do with anyone else, this is directly from me and for the purpose that many still don't know or refute it
--This is a simple preface, jump down to the next bold part if you wanna skip it.--
When Krapis originally came around he seemed like a new player at first and so I didn't have any suspicions at the time, especially since I wasn't very active at the time. He seemed like an eager and ambitious player that wanted to do things and move up in the eUSA. However, that changed when he ran for president.
Sure many people can run for president. They can start a party, nominate themselves, and run a campaign. But that isn't quite what Krapis did. He was a 3 month old player that ran for president with the backing of 3 top 5 parties. That was when I knew something was up and it was most definitely an old player, but I wasn't very active so I just ignored it.
You also have to keep in mind that 2 of the parties are known to many in the eUSA to have more of an elitist attitude, so a new player of 3 months old gaining their support for CP was nearly impossible. Although, one of them does have some really great members and have been making strides to improve their party in that capacity.
--End of the preface--
Anyways, important thing is, he won the presidency, not once, but twice. We were duped. Come November and the pressure is put on the suspected person of running the multi and eventually he cracks, revealing the truth. Gnilraps was actually Krapis. He was masquerading as a new player and playing the mass for fools. I didn't have a negative opinion of him before. I probably had a more positive opinion of him actually, but this didn't sit well with me.
You also have to realize that he admitted that there were a number of people that knew of this deceit and were explicitly involved in it.
The worst part is that many people, including him, thought nothing of it. Lying to people. Playing us. I would have been perfectly fine if he decided to run as Gnilraps again, or if he didn't want to use that account, openly admitted from the beginning that Krapis was Gnilraps.
Time went on and many people forgot about it. As did I. He seemed to have gone back to just playing behind the scenes as he did before Krapis.
But then he makes this joke of an article
https://www.erepublik.com/en/article/hoist-that-rag-2728357/1/20
He goes on about how he's been gone for a long time and he doesn't know anything about the game. More lies. Dude, we already know that's a lie, why act like that? I don't get it. I know it's the internet so it's so easy to lie about things, but I just don't get it. It does more harm than good.
It also was crazy that some commenters still didn't know the truth that he himself revealed, the one he's trying to still hide. Yes, you've changed Krapis account name and it is very possible that someone else is using it now, but nonetheless that still happened.
Maybe this is all an elaborate troll. If it is touche, but if it isn't
Krapis was Gnilraps.
He lied.
He still lies.

The whole affair is disgraceful, and heaps further discredit on the people who have been running this country (into the ground) for months. And even now, they like all this stuff because it creates "drama." Since the US -- thanks to "krapis," bubblar, and their enablers -- has no control over its foreign policy, the only thing left to do is squabble over nonsense and pray for some kind of sick drama to entertain themselves with.
Yes.. is a shame into what eUSA turned in past period.. 🙁
Just another Serbian satellite.. 🙁
tl:dr
gnil is a liar?
known fact!
krapis is/was gnil?

Gnil upon seeing this article: https://tenor.com/view/mean-girls-regina-george-why-are-you-obsessed-with-me-rachel-mc-adams-gif-13631942
Ironically, I was obsessed with her, but she decided to have someone else's baby, so I moved on.
Yes, it does feed his rather obvious narcissism. He gets the attention he craves, gets to tell himself he pulled one over on everyone, and -- most important to any narcissist -- it serves as an example that the rules just don't apply to him, because he's special.
I think this slightly doesn't get right how endorsements happen. The Feds have a democratic primary process. It's unlikely everyone voting knew who Krapis was. We're not so elite that we refuse to vote for new people. The way politics work is that the people who might have otherwise run for president knew who krapis was and thus did not run against him. Which is how politics tends to work. And while that has an elitist element to it, I think it's different than portraying parties like machines.
Regardless I did know who Krapis was somewhat early I guess. I don't think it's fair to say I maintained the deceit as I told the truth about it on multiple occasions, and never lied explicitly or by omission. I honestly didn't think it was a huge deal at the time as I assume all new players who understand game mechanics are actually old players lol. NewAzazel comes to mind as an old player who came back under a new account without it being an issue. His reasoning was he wanted a fresh start from DCD which people accepted face value when the truth there came out. I had a friend come back under a different account wanting a fresh start and then I snubbed them from my CP cabinet without knowing who they were which was embarrassing but that was also treated as normal at the time.
I agree the pretending they were different people from some people was weird and bad (and if you listened to me on eNPR, or read the press briefing piece I wrote before dom's article that was shelved for some reason you will know that I certainly never pretended lol).
Anyway, a sincere question: the reason for outrage having both accounts be alive or that he was pretending to be a new player? I think I've maybe been around too long to bat much of an eye at the latter happening
What was shelved exactly?
The problem is 10/10 if he wants the Fed CP endorsement, and he has suggested he will run for CP soonish.
Ah I wasn't clear. I wrote a piece for the WHPR that was a comedy piece suggesting Krapis was actually Julia Child. The joke was that it was an open secret that Krapis was an old player, and also liked recipes. It was never published, so I put it in a press briefing. I wrote it before I realized Krapis being an older player was going to be considered controversial lol
And the Fed endorsement is a vote by members of the Federalist party. So idk what to say about that? I only have one vote lol
Ohhh, yeah, but if you read my past article about it, you would know it's about much more than him being an older player. Many of us feel the deception and other tactics we've discussed on the forum and such, are way out in left field. I've never seen anything like this in all my years on eRep from any other player.
It's the pretending and using his connections he had previously. That was the issue at first. I had gotten over it though since he outed himself. However after he made his recent article about coming back and not knowing anything and then some people still trying to argue that krapis wasn't gnilraps because of it, I figured I'd make sure everyone knew.
Ah I see, thanks for the reply

Just like in RL many of the votes for krapis were a vote against his opponent - now who were these two losers (or were they both the same person as alleged in the quoted text in the article) that so many people wanted to vote against
So it wasn't gnilkrap's fault (I'm actually getting tempted to out all his bots as well, just so everyone knows who is who) for being creepy and a liar, it wasn't the fault of the people who knew and kept quiet about it, no. It was the fault of the people who ran against him. That's an interesting take. The sort of thing someone says when they are committed to defending the indefensible at any cost.
was/is David Wilson one of the GnilKrapis' multi bot team?
I got a whole list of accounts tied up in a network from my time as CP, if you want it let me know. I was never given keys to that kingdom so I don’t have the full list, but the majority of these people we all know so well here are apart of it. It’s actually really shocking at first but not all that surprising. I’ve brought it to the admins before but they didn’t do anything about it.
LISTEN TO SOME QUALITY MUSIC!

Thank you Carlos!
VOTE - COMMENT - SHOUT !
No Plato endorsement on your article? Oh well.
I am calling bullshit, no way Dom's glorious tears over Plato's in-game rewards program for visa purchases has anything to do with this article. Oops, yes it does, just not in the way you're trying to spin it.
Who says Gnil doesn't make offer of developing accounts that he can sell, to suckers out in RL, upon having a developed account would invest in packs? Win, win ... the rest, just losers.
How's your bot party doing deepchill?
Very well actually, very, very well.
I'm sure. Just a few clicks and you will have "real" players recruited back to it. lol
