BOOT THE BA5TARD!

[Flinx]

WTF!!!!

[Squeblish Nef?]

Get the mods to him!

How do I manage my region?

The person who created a region is known as its "Founder," and can access a page called "Regional Control." This allows him or her to set the World Factbook Entry, password-protect the region (to make it invitation-only), and eject troublemakers. Regional Control is also available to UN Delegates, although the Founder can disable this.

If the UN Delegate has access to the Regional Control, can he boot the founder???

I lodged a complaint on the "Getting Help" page. I am sure there are rules about how many people can be booted from a region at one time (i.e. a lot less than 83!).

I moved back into the "regular" Apolyton as well as left a nice message in New Apolyton. Read it in the NS forums.

[Urban Ranger]

Should have left it in "regular" Apolytion

There's this at the FAQ:

No. Region crashing by itself is a legitimate tactic to seize power, but ejecting large numbers of nations is griefing. It can be a fine line between region crashing and griefing. Players who enjoy launching invasions should take care to stay on the right side.

Not sure what the rules are on griefing, though.

[Flinx]

If "ejecting large numbers of nations is griefing" then ejecting ALL nations is clearly against the rules.

[Flinx]

Can I steal another player's nation?
No. This is fraudulent behavior and breaches the site's terms & conditions. The same applies to any attempt to impersonate another player, including attempting to hack nation or region passwords.

Can I invade other people's regions?
Yes. The practice of "region crashing," where a group of nations all move to a region with the aim of seizing the UN Delegate position, is part of the game. Certain groups within NationStates are particularly adroit at this, and can attack very quickly.

Once I've taken over a region, can I eject everyone else?
No. Region crashing by itself is a legitimate tactic to seize power, but ejecting large numbers of nations is griefing. It can be a fine line between region crashing and griefing. Players who enjoy launching invasions should take care to stay on the right side.

I think everyone should complain to a Mod via the "Getting Help" page

[joncha]

I complained right away. Except that we can all go back to Apolyton now, I have no idea if it had any impact.

Well, I think I left a nice referral note in regular Apolyton.

I do not like to be messed with in any way.


*Sleeping adder bites ravenous tiger!*

[Flinx]

This is a NEW region of Apolyton founded and controlled by Kifatica who could easily boot us all again whenever he wants.

[joncha]

Does anybody know if UN Delegates are selected automatically? What I mean is, can the "founder" decide not to allow them?

[Frankychan]

*scratches chin*

Then, should we just give this stupid bastard a big F.U. and relocate to New Apolyton?

I think Tassadaria is a much safer bet than this unknown person?
