Nah, seems it wasn't opened 😕 btw @Alex if you haven't noticed already^

You'll do great, I know you will. Couldn't ask for anyone else to work under. 🌹

Like Zevari said, joining an alliance is your best bet. They'll have you do wars and such because those are the best ways to get money at a lower tier, but they'll also provide a community for you and a place to get to meet and connect with people. Tldr alliances are very good, I'd strongly suggest you join one.

This might suggest otherwise, @Alex. While these nations did share IPs only once (this is the check for https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=353983), this nation is only 5 days old. I don't trust the "sweetheart" trades, especially when they're on the same network.

Sender: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=326198 Receiver: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=353983 About $15m was transferred via coal trades over the course of a half an hour-The unique ID check said they were not on the same network, but this gives me reason to be suspicious, at the very least.

It's usually best to join an alliance and work your way up there. Unfortunately, not being in an alliance leaves you open to being raided. Generally: Pros of an alliance: - Don't get raided because you're in an alliance (and because the alliance protects you) - You get friends, yay - You can grow faster than without an alliance. Most alliances have folks who have been playing the game for over 5 years and have spent hundreds if not thousands of hours devoted to their specific area. I know Rose's econ is one of the best in the game (might as well shamelessly self-promote here) Cons of an alliance: - Alliances ask you to conform to their regulations, like builds and such - General a bit less of free will to do what you want (this can be builds or taxes or etc.) Not all alliances do 100/100, not all alliances do 0/0. Taxes vary from alliance to alliance, you can ask the IA or Econ heads of the alliance about it via DMs on Discord. Re: application processes, there's a bit that can help with this, but the main issue is that the processes are made to help the Internal Affairs departments of each alliance determine whether or not to accept the person into alliance. By the way, feel free to DM me if you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer them the best I can. My Discord handle is Logistics#2110. Hope this all helps

Why is this in alliance affairs lol

I have had this explained to me, this arises from a different issue. Feel free to disregard it.

This is quite a large one, not quite sure how this went unreported before. ID check: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/unique/id=8360 Nations: - https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=8360 - https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=125407 - https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=153204 - https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=156908 - https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=189573 - https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=195497 - https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=198720 - https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=226330 - https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=255385 I'm not sure how this went unnoticed, or if there's a reasoning behind this. All I know is that there are many, many high-level nations linked to each other on the same network. Greene and LazarisN are both verified, no one else on that list is.

There's a tool called "Bulk Import to All Cities" that does much the same thing (if you have a build saved elsewhere, you can copy it and paste it into the template, and it'll go through each city and switch the entire build if you have enough resources). That's likely the best thing you're looking for, because if you have it all saved elsewhere you can just copy/paste to switch builds. Were you thinking about something else that I'm missing?

Pretty simple, someone traded with other nations for $600m total. I'm assuming these nations bought 10 credits each and funneled it into one nation. Receiver: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=295738 Senders: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=296747, https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=296258, https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=296371, and https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=296268 (that last one is a possible middleman? Not sure why they got $200m then sent it) They all come clean on multi checks, but that does not mean much if they use a VPN and the like 😕 I'll also post all four senders' trade activity. Thanks!

Why are you declaring war? Oceania is at war with Eastasia; it has always been at war with Eastasia

Frankly, I would participate in this, but I feel a little sheepy. What the heck, I might as well with a lively Aurora. Hopefully this Eclipses the other puns, the Advanced Mechanics of my Ideas might just edge out the rest.

After this post was made, it seems that the first is somehow not showing up anymore.

Hi again- I have been hard at work finding multis, and it seems I have found another. PnW check: Nation links: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=271238 https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=277879 https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=277892 Thank you, have a nice rest of your day

This one's a big one, looks like they've been banned for multis before. Photo of the multi checkers below. multi link: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/unique/id=271682 Nation Links: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=271612, https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=271682, https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=271488 (already banned), https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=271303 (already banned), https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=271474 (already banned), https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=271475 (already banned)

I'm aware, these were members (Plus, the war logs would say "Rose Applicant" instead of Rose)

What was I trying to do?==>Ensure stated alliance seniority and actual seniority matched, they didn't What happened? ==> Alliance seniority does not line up, this is a recurring issue looks like. I have three case studies, I'll post screenshots at the bottom. Any other relevant information==>See the case studies/screenshots below Links/Screenshots==> To affirm this, I used the wars for seniority, which will show what alliance the attacker/defender is in at the start of the war. Luckily, these don't line up with seniority. The following case studies (Thanks to both of these fantastic people for bringing this to my attention, you guys are awesome): 1. Zadia (LilKhi2x) Nation Link: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=268539 War screen: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=268539&display=war LilKhi2x's alliance seniority reads 4 days, meaning that they have been in the alliance since February 7th. However, when you look at the bottom of the war screen, you see the following: This is as far down as the war screen goes, but it shows that they have been in Rose since at least February 3rd 2. The New Republic of China (A_Shanghaiese) Nation Link: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=267177 War screen: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=267177&display=war The same goes here, but I'm not going to post screenshots, as that would make this post excessively long. However, A_Shanghaiese's seniority is 6 days (February 5th), but their oldest war was on January 29th, and it says they were a part of Rose then. 3. Tzion (Solomon Ben-David aka yours truly) Nation Link: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=210945 My nation has been in Rose since May 11th, when I created it. It says my nation is 275 days old on the nation page; however, my alliance seniority reads 231 days, 44 days off. It would be much appreciated if this bug could be fixed. Thanks!

Hi- So we encountered an applicant earlier (https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=269965, unique id check: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/unique/id=269965) that told us that they and their brother both played when we asked them why they shared the same network with https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=250070. We decided to take their word at it, and asked them to verify, citing that they are between 13 and 18 and they'd rather not send a picture of themselves because they're "not comfortable sending pictures of me to a dude on the internet" (their words). Their application was up to standard, so we let them in. However, they left the server and deleted their nation about an hour and a half after joining the alliance. We are unsure of their other discord account, but the account they joined us with was Arbaitska#3490. Below is the screenshot of the multi report: I think that's everything, but I might be able to answer more questions if you have them (that's to sheepy). Logistics#2110 Appreciate it

First off, you don't need 6 coal power plants. One can power up to 500 infrastructure, so you need two of them. Next, you might want to buy a bit of coal on the market to jump-start you. This, along with decreasing the amount of coal mines you have (because they need coal to work), should get you set up nicely. You can also check if you're losing coal (which I'm assuming is the most likely case) on the Revenue tab (between Projects and Military in the sidebar)

Note: DMed and sorted, apologies for the false alarm.

https://politicsandwar.com/nation/unique/id=267561 https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=267177 https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=267561 Seems like a possible multi, might want to check it out. Appreciate it.

Nation Link: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=250929 (also https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=250727, https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=250831, and https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=262030 due to the nature of the voilation) Leader name: New personbyebye Nature of the violation: Multi, has these four accounts linked to the ID 250929, as evidenced by the multi checker, which a screenshot of is attached. You can go to the link to see it as well: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/unique/id=250929 Cheers, have a nice day.

Now this...this is what the people want. Best idea I've seen yet

Hi- Earlier today, I was having a heated discussion with someone about what counts as "using moderation as a weapon". The rule is quoted below. "Using (or attempting to use) Moderation as a Weapon is against the rules and punishable by a nation strike. An example of using (or attempting to use) Moderation as a Weapon is threatening to report another player to an Administrator or Moderator unless they comply with your request or demands. If someone is in violation of the Game Rules, you are obligated as a player to notify a Game Administrator (through in-game Messaging.)" I was arguing that this was open to interpretation. For instance, if a player reported a bunch of people based off of an unclear rule, this would run the risk of moderation action. It could be a misuse of reporting, as if the rule proved to be different than what the player thought and they reported a bunch of people falsely, they would get a moderation strike. The player's point was as follows: "i know how to interpret it because alex has elaborated on it previously. in fact reading the rule in-game it makes that clear by giving you an example of blackmail." What is the scope of this rule? Is it just for blackmail or is for a wider range of moderation misuse?
