Orbis: KT what micro are you at war with? KT: Yes

I have come bearing news to all of Orbis. We have achieved an end. An end to the war that sought the destruction of communities all around. Peace has come to Orbis. A peace which shall bring forth growth and prosperity to all who have managed to survive. A peace that shall restabilize our world and bring forth new ideas. I have here, in my hand, a document with many signatures on it that I would like to read out to you. "We, the Coalition of Alphabet Soup, and the lasting leaders of Coalition We Dun Fuked Up, have held meetings and are agreed to a global white peace and a 6mo NAP." May you all go home and get a well deserved quiet sleep. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alright, real talk. Starting on 2/20/2020 - all alliances involved in the global clusterfrick war - will have a 6mo NAP with the agreement of white peace. Of course you can easily void out of this, but for the sake of sanity - this game needs a break. There are no reps, no victories or defeats, no nothing. Just ending this conflict and moving forward. Any battles involving the alliances who has not accepted this agreement will be considered raids and will be treated as such by the respective alliances who are involved. We are officially declaring this war done. Some of you may disagree with a NAP being in place, but considering this war went on as long as it did and the impact it had on multiple communities - I'm sure it's more than understandable in this particular case. Let's get things back in order and allow @Alex some time to bring out new changes. If you don't care, well, can't really stop you but I think many of us are just simply tired of the drama and conflict. Activity needs to spike back up in multiple alliances once more. Enjoy the rebuild and start establishing new connections. I'm not posting everybody's signatures who back this up. You know who's who. And if you don't accept this, you're on your own. Arrgh and Mythic aren't included. So have fun punching them if you need to get some aggression out.

I normally don't comment on obviously terrible suggestions that needlessly narrow functionality, but then we lost downvotes, so I'm not taking any chances. This is an obviously terrible suggestion that needlessly narrow functionality.

Bring back downvotes.

We the North Atlantic Empire recognize hostilities and formally declare war on Knights Templar My top 3 members (including myself) have just been raided by them. We are going to be coordinating attacks with alliances already at war with them such as the Teutonic Order and Deathly Hallows and we are currently trying to get the United front bloc to come to our aid in this battle. We accept knights Templar’s challenge and will spare them no mercy on the battlefield.

This is the 3rd Goatse I've gotten in the last week. I'm not particularly offended by the content, but it would be super cool to not have spam in my inbox. https://politicsandwar.com/inbox/message/id=3875396

I promise to return home tomorrow evening.

Once again we've achieved world peace, but we haven't gotten my dad to come back home : (

It's needs some updating, but yes https://politicsandwar.fandom.com/wiki/Mighty_Micro_Madness

@The Polish ReichFix your nation link, you have a deleted nation attached.

Thank you NAE, very cool!

I'm not a fan of command economies but I don't see how capping taxes at 50% protects the integrity of this game. Not to mention that many alliances temporarily enforce high taxes that are close to if not 100% during rebuild phases after wars.

I am not sure of the content of the mail message above but a member of my alliance had another disgusting image similar to ones from Bandit in the past under the heading 'Timezone adjustment settings reminder' - she thought it was an admin message https://politicsandwar.com/inbox/message/id=3877516 Is it possible to prevent images being sent in in-game messages, i.e. prevent img tag or disable it when read. This will impact some communications but some of these images could be sent and read by younger members of our community - I suspect their parents would be alarmed by the content. Older members of the community can ignore these but for children (over 13 years), this images are too graphic and reasonable measures need to be put in place to protect our younger players.

Should prevent endless buy-in's this time around.

wait but i heard the horde likes wars? dont u like wars? i coulda sworn hippos love wars rawr

The fact that KT might die to a bunch of random micros makes me laugh

KT is on the ropes now!

Items I agree with: All signatories agree that they will never participate in any activity intending to 'kill' the game. Killing the game is defined as any activity which tries to drive away players from this game, and also prevents new players from joining this game. This includes, but isn't limited to, permawar in an effort to drive members of the losing side out of the game and mass-spamming false reviews about the game. All signatories to this treaty agree that they will never cheat themselves, nor will they shelter cheaters. They further agree to fully cooperate with the game administration to investigate/prevent cheating. All signatories agree to pursue peace negotiations in good faith. They further agree that the peace terms will involve only the game in it's scope, and no term shall involve an irl activity (whether it be something serious like eating dog food or something more innocuous like writing essays). All signatories (if/when they are on the winning side) agree that they will reveal all the peace terms upfront to the alliances on the losing side. Items I don't agree with, because it's unrealistic, too-subjective, and/or not actually good for the game: All signatories agree not to attack the protectorates of hostile alliances, unless the said protectorate is aiding the said alliance's war effort. All signatories agree to not bully smaller players/alliances. All signatories agree to not develop grudges, and pursue friendly and respectful relations with alliances on the opposing side, after the war is over. Items I'd suggest: All signatories agree to contain wars to a reasonable length, generally no more than 1-2 months. All signatories, in the absence of any immediate and current provocation, to avoid wars against alliances that are just coming out of and rebuilding from another war.

The only rule of battle that was changed during the war was an increase in plane cost that your allies pushed for. Or are you referring to the fact that your allies were caught cheating after driving hundreds of players out of the game?

Just to be super clear here. Alliances that haven't accepted the peace offering: Remnants of NPO, GOONS (GPA/Octavia/whateverthehelltheyrebrandto), GoG, BK, Birdweed Alliances that don't care about the NAP: Mythic, Arrgh, and I guess KT since I haven't heard anything from them about it. Each of these alliances fall under the "Raider" category. So feel free to punch them if need be. If your alliance made a post accepting the offer, you're good. If your alliance peaced out earlier in the war, you're good.

It is emotionally important for me to have the ability to cheap shot someone's jets while they're locked in a room with a calculus paper for 2-4 hours.

Death to KT! ?

DEUS VULT

Not sure if this has been mentioned before, but you should be automatically exempt from taxes if you are in a blockade, and then automatically put back on taxes when you break the blockade/the war ends. This is because it doesn't make sense that you can't trade with other nations or receive aid from your alliance, but they can find a way to extract resources from you. This may make it easier to rebuild after a war.

This would lead to too many rss that are wasted because the poor alliances wouldn't be able to buy the rss, and the rich alliances would be capped out.there shouldnt be a cap on rss, the main issue from the last war was the mentality that the iq leaders had---pin them until they delete-- In which case iq would have ran out of rss way earlier if it weren't because of gpwc. Imo now that those people aren't around anymore, I don't see alliances getting pinned indefinitely like the previous war

HOLY FARK THAT FLAG IS HUGE I, KILLZBOB OF THE DEATHLY HALLOWS. SPEAK FOR US ALL WHEN SAYING KT HAS GROWN TOO MUCH AND WE MUST PUT A STOP TO IT. THAT'S WHY WITH THE PERMISSION OF MY LEADER DEATHLY HALLOWS HEREBY DECLARES WAR UPON THE KNIGHTS OF TEMPLAR This is real by the way ❤️❤️ Never was known for my DoW posts. Wish all Good Luck and Fun Fighting.

Very well for Fraggle

@Alex These are easy to implement.

Uhhh... we never declared a single war on you, nor you on us. Pointless spam thread if ever I've seen one.

I am excited for what KT will have to say on this matter.

Stopping before driving the totality of Pacifica from the game? Sounds like something you'll look back on in ten years and regret. Oh wait, nevermind. No one will give a frick about video game decisions in ten years.

I've never seen something quite so beautiful

Knights Templar have issued a round of war with Central Imperial Union, the Central Imperial Union is a member of the Confederate States of Orbis. A round of war was ordered, a round of war shall be had. The Confederate States of Orbis recognizes Hostilities with the Knights Templar and Chromosome Crusade. /s/ Spartan Brotherhood Central Imperial Union Teutonic Order Ecotopian Co-operative Alliance League of Democratic Nations The Imperium

A micro bloc called the 'Confederate States of Orbis' recognized hostilities with us. This is because one of the alliances we hit, Central Imperial Union, was a member of it. Teutonic Order was a member alliance of this bloc, and they just so happened to have a number of people in range of us. That's what that is about.

Disappointed such a cool theme wasn’t used on a DoW. Not one use of Avada Kedavra.

Looks fine on the surface but I have to ask when we'll stop adding catchup mechanics? I think the past year or two has shown that a coordinated effort by new players can already serve up a challenge to the existing community that has been playing for years. PnW's population needs new blood, I agree. We can do more to retain new people, yes. I don't think adding extra catch-up mechanics will further help this goal.

Ability to filter by activity (e.g. purple / yellow / green / blue) on nation search page Show turns remaining in beige on nation search page (e.g. a tooltip on the beige square?)

A lot of micros had the last 8 months pretty easy to establish themselves. Sort of a sink or swim situation now.

Here lies Do Not Fear Jazz, who on the 7th of February of this year was meticulously crushed like a grape by an angry old man named Partisan. This unfortunate incident occurred in a sewer pipe in Embrace It’s capital city. The deceased was reported to have shouted "GOONS! I am undone!" just before expiring. Do Not Fear Jazz is survived by some thankless family members, who are even now looting the personal effects of the departed. Funeral services will be held the 19th of next month. Leader of GOONS August 2019 - February 2020 Shamelessly copied from my nation bio. To Coalition A, whom decried the "death" of their communities, you now actively support holding a gun to my head ensuring that I cannot viably play this game. I agreed in good faith, just like I attempted to with the peace talks. @Kevanovia hit me up on discord. @Roquentin RIP @Shadowthrone RIP @The Mad Titan RIP @Seeker I'll be in touch brother. @Princess Adrienne shark wine pls @Epi differences aside, hope Camelot can overcome and not get crushed. I am available as a consultant.

better than the wiki 10/10

Y'all got it backwards. NPO is merely trying to help Sheepy find all the possible bugs and cheats in the game, therefore making it into a stable, safe, and thriving game environment. Not to mention all the ads revenue Sheepy gets from their vast amount of thrifty clicks across the game. Thank you NPO!

"Systematically destroy one side and force hundreds of players out" Are you quoting Roq with respect to what your coalition has been attempting to do for the past eight months?

Apparently it still does ?

>burned donut seems to get a rise What???

Cry more

Hello, This is just a heads up that I have disabled "downvotes" and negative reputation on the forum. It may take some time to reset all users with negative reputation to the new minimum (zero) so if you're reading this and that hasn't been completed yet, please bear with me for some time. It's been suggested many times that we revise / eliminate the reputation system, and I've finally decided to act. "Downvotes" are really just the laziest way to voice disagreement with someone, and contribute to the negativity and toxicity that is plaguing the game currently. If you disagree with someone's post, you'll be forced to type a response explaining why. Single word posts like "no," "this sucks," etc. are still spam and will still earn you warning points as they always have per the Forum Rules. Also, I've enabled the "Thanks" react to posts as well. Feel free to try it out on this post here

I get it P&W is in another world war, but my nation is a trading nation only. I only fight back when attacked, I do not attack other nations. I am only in the alliance I am in so that when nations attack I can get backup. I don’t know how you fell about wars but considering you attacked me I figured you’re the kind of person who enjoys it. That’s fine when it doesn’t affect me if you actually want to fight a war I can point you to a few people who enjoy that part of the game. I however hate the war part of the game. As a result whenever a nation attacks me I place and embargo and hand their information to my alliance for people who like to raid. I’ve been informed that you currently have your war slots full but Acadia raiders will probably give you trouble for the rest of the war until the war ends or you have someone within the alliance asks on your behalf for you to be left alone. I’ll be online every day this week to do as much damage as I can to defend myself. But we can end this quickly and peacefully, and I’ll remove your information from war suggestions if you accept my peace offer or send me one yourself should you regret your decisions later.
