I am bumping this because more people should read it. I've had several people talk to me through PM relating their own concerns to mine, and I know other people are out there who've seen all this nonsense too.

What exactly would you do to solve this problem Mr. Vice-President?

What can be done? The damage has already occured, and there's really no way to legislate against it all. The only thing I can really ask for is that those involved actually make an admission of guilt, and that the rest of Atlasia can see this evidence and know what's really going on.

Zombies wouldn't be able to plead guilty anyways if they only vote.

We have members who aren't very active on this part of the fourm but otherwise very active elsewhere. They still know the other people/candidates.

I'm not talking about the zombies pleading guilty, I'm talking about the people who brought them here.

For example, A-Bob, who invited you to Atlasia? I assume it was also the guy that told you to make the twenty posts the hour before you joined so that you'd be eligible?

A-Bob jumped the gun, I and few others had been in contact with him, but before he could be contacted again, he spammed those posts, and then joined, in the Pacific on is own. If we were influencing him, we would have had him join the Midwest. I wish we did have as much influence and control over the newbies as you claim.

I was thinking of joining the Mideast too actually.

THe mideast and Midwest are two different regions, dummy. Didn't you at least read the Introductory thread? Don't move now unless you really want to you can only move once per 6 weeks.

Uh, I think he was just stating that he wanted to join the Mideast. I don't think he thought they were the same.

Notice the placement of the word "too" after the word "Mideast". I assumed that in haste he mispelled it and meant to say "Mideast Two" as if he thought I had said that and he was just agreeing. Appearently then what he really meant was to disagree with me in which case the word is not only misspelled but also in the wrong place or shouldn't be there at all.

I know. Which is why I was thinking of joining the Mideast as I said above. Screw the midwest.

I was pointing out that I wasn't recruited to be in the Pacific region persa.
1) What makes you think I'd move?
2) You should be more careful calling people dummies, especially when you're wrong

Well your sentence could have definately been better crafted as to avoid a misunderstanding.

1. I don't know, I just wanted to make sure you knew the restrictions before hand so you don't end up stuck in a region you don't want to be in.

2. I call everyone Dummy. If you want I can call you much worse. Learn some grammar. Tongue

I'm a little tired of people pointing to the JCP as hypocritical in all of this. We encourage people to vote a certain way and we recruit people, but we don't recruit from other places on the internet and we don't instruct our members to spam to get the required amount of posts before they join and vote. If someone can't join, we don't force them, and we don't recruit anywhere else.

We have alot of people that don't post in Atlasia but for the most part they're established members of the forum at large. (Lunar, BRTD, Opebo, etc) You're just being plain disengenuous if you deny the contrast between our members and how the RPP operates.

I don't expect you to listen nor do I expect to be able to knock some sense into your head.

I only know of one person being recruited offsite, Cindy and she is gone. Most of our recuits are active throughout the forum just like your guy's, people like Nik, Giovanni, Lahbas, Floridarepub, Big bad Fab, etc. The people that you point too are the exceptions. Consider something else, when I recuited Hamilton he was no different in regards to activity then Dcush. I even said to myself, I hope this doesn't end up like the last Californian I recuited. How was I suppose to know Dcush would go innactive and Hamilton would not, I didn't. I found them on the forum in similar ways and both were semi-active to not active at the time. I figured if anything Atlasia would give them a reason to get more involved. Also I have seen posts from ajc, Azmagic, and A-bob all over the forum.

So I frankly don't see the difference. We have a handful 3 or 4 posters that are what you say and I bet if I dig through your party membership I can find at least that many, two. There is no grand conspiracy to overrun the forums with outsiders, If there was I would do everything in my power to stop it.

You may no ignore this post in compliance with the JCP's 11th Commendment, "Thou shall not read a word of reasoning from RPPer's".

Btw you bastards, my own chairman, our egotistical GM who can't admit he is f**king wrong, the activities and stupidity of some of our new members, I must say I really getting sick of this forum and the motherf**kers that inhabit it. You can all go straight to hell for all I care.

Chill out. I'm not suggesting there's a party-wide conspiracy here, I'm suggesting there are a few members of the RPP that may or may not be recruiting off-site and directing newbies (who know nothing about the site) to do their bidding. Plenty of members are examples of this and we in the JCP have a few reasons to suspect what we do. There's no need to lose your mind over it.

Thats impossible cause some of the people you are talking about I recuited and they were already on the goddamn forums.

I lost my mind years ago, Marokai.
