Well this is disgusting.

Yeah, it's not like the JCP has a ton of zombie voters.

We recruit established members of the forum for the most part. We don't encourage our members to spam and join the second they're eligible.

Further, we don't do off-site recruiting drives because our of petty childish need to win elections.

The tide is changing. Get over it.

Someone with 54 posts and has spammed most of them in the last hour and just joined Atlasia half an hour ago is telling me the tide is changing.

Well, I'm not suspicious.

I suppose than a RRPer will appear soon to say us than we are against newbies if we find that suspicious...

We will find the truth a day... Enjoy the time before than the truth is exposed, whoever you are... Even if I have some ideas of who that him...

Why are all your words wrong? Or are you a native French speaker?

He is.

A demand for an IP check could be wise, I think.

They're too smart for that. They're coming from random forums, one came from an American Idol forum, at least some others came from Nation-States.. things like that.

What do you mean off-site?

Out of the Atlas forum. We always followed that unwritten rule and I expect that to stay the same. You understand me? I hope for you...

Are there other forums with this type of game or something?

I don't know. We follow that rule to protect the quality of the game and of the forum. The game must remain about ideas, not about which party is the best to find supporters on other websites. Also, the forum doesn't need people with no understanding of politics on other parts of the forum, for obvious reasons.

Well azmagic has posted essays for like half of his posts. He really wants to contribute and ajc seems to as well.

Yeah 30 posts in an hour is a pretty good contribution.

[Marokai Backbeat]

Another great contribution.

Welcome to Atlasia, I hope someone as left wing as yourself is comfortable in the DA.

Hey, look at me!

The more left-wingers the merrier, I say! I hope that both of you and the JCP can have a good working relationship in the future.

Deeds for Governor '09
Virginia
Democratic Alliance

Wow. What brought this on?

[Marokai Backbeat]

As long as DWTL And Rowan Run the RPP, I'm not gonna stay in it.

So, I switch to Independents.

I don't run the party. I am actually pretty much a peon.

And uhhh, how does that reconcile with this?

You're probably better off without him.

Apollo

lol

[Marokai Backbeat]

We've had this argument in the past, pre-eligibility registering isn't proper, you'll have to re-register when you have the 50. If the intro thread confused you then I apologize.

You must be logged in to read this quote.

(This was repealed, but my amendment repealed the repeal, in other words, it still stands. There's also a number of other clauses around that say you need the required posts to register.)

[Marokai Backbeat]

Interesting that so many are now leaving the RPP, but also concerning now that the ideological balance of the DA is shifting right-ward.

[Marokai Backbeat]

Uh, wow.

[Marokai Backbeat]

Wonder what some of the less conservative members of the DA feel about this. It's not as if these three are any less conservative. Wonder what effect this will have on the DA being a centrist party(or center left, IMHO)?

It does certainly beg that question, doesn't it? I offered to join the DA once, with all the SDP members I could, before we joined the JCP, and I was rebuffed, saying that it would tilt the party too much to the left. I wonder if this tilts the party too much to the right? I suppose only time will tell, especially how Rowan legislates.

PiT (The Physicist)
RPP
Louisiana

     It seems that Duke is serious about reforming the party, & I shouldn't give up so easily on the party I worked on for a year, so I will return. I expect some real changes to come out of this, though. I also expect to not be disappointed. If this makes me look bad in any way, then that is regretful, but I am serious about reforming the RPP.

How unfortunate and all-too-expected.

[Marokai Backbeat]

Lol, this is almost amusing in it's ridiculousness.

I really wish I was big enough of a jerk to post PMs.

     Well if you did that, you'd end up being convicted under F.L. 31-18, & probably lose your Senate seat.

Precisely.

Mart
New Jersey
Jesus Christ Party

Welcome.

[Marokai Backbeat]

Contrary to what you folk may think because of Mart's post count, he's not a "zombie" as far as I know. He personally PMed me asking questions on what Atlasia was and clearing up some of the stuff from my introduction thread.

So either he's an elaborate troll (not likely) or he's genuine. I side with the latter.

Yet the same thing happened with people on our side and you scream zombie.  I love it

That's because we have a number of reasons to suspect some of your members coming here for the sole purpose of voting, and come from other sites. We don't do that.

Oh I really don't care, I just felt the need to yell zombie, considering everyone with less than 100 posts is usually considered a zombie

No harm.

So let me get this straight:
1.) We crecruit someone Hamilton says they weren't from another site and they asked people about joning Atlasia = zombie
2.) Marokai says they had a geniune interest = definietely not a zombie

I'd post PMs if it was illegal in Atlasia to do so.

In any case, BK has listed in great detail the number of people who joined, spammed the required posts, moved to a strategic location, voted, and did little else. You're free to see if Mart follows that same path or not.

How about the RPP, DA, and JCP all just show some respect to our newer members, regardless of their party. I have no problem having Mart and I don't want to accuse him of anything because he is innocent until proven guilty. I think we should all work towards this attitude.

I believe I was.

[Marokai Backbeat]

All I know is I didn't recruit him, and Bgwah didn't know where he come from. If he's a good member, then I'll have no objections. Obviously I don't like posting 50 times in a day, but we'll see what happens. The key difference here is we didn't direct him the do anything, or even recruit him.
