Today I Learned (TIL) in the Orbis Forum School of Foreign Affairs (OFSFA) You're expected to honor a non-existent clause and if you don't "your word means nothing" (regardless of how they wronged you) It's ok to vote out a core, founding member in secret while giving them no chance to defend themselves It's acceptable to leak opsec information When an ally tells you about what they feel is a credible threat and tries to gather a defense for the sphere, you should tell them to f off Even though everyone complains about P&W being "excel simulator," the moment you try to do anything remotely interesting, people will be up in arms one way or another Thanks for all the useful information about FA, everyone!

Indeed. Thank you, Boris.

10-4, Matt

Bet. Who are you having issues with? I will personally defend you against them.

Hm... but the first one would provide the same level of power as a nuclear power plant if someone has 20 farms and 4k land and the second one would provide 3k power for someone with 4k land. That seems incredibly unbalanced and removes all need for farming whales to buy uranium and just further allows them to go inactive, so I fail to see how it is beneficial to the game as a whole.

Somebody has never heard of life sentences and capital punishments. 🤣

Hm????

I kinda feel bad now, because I genuinely had to do a bit of digging to figure out who this was lol.

I can't even leave to celebrate my birthday for the weekend smh. Y'all are gonna feel my fury (in 2-5 business days).

Welcome to Orbis!

Didn't really plead your case all that well imo and they seem pretty much set on you remaining banned, so...

I would buy the ones for cities and infra asap lol

Uh... sorry to be blunt, but are you stupid? You've basically just admitted to ban evasion with this post, and I'm 95% sure I found at least one of your old nations that is banned with the message "This nation was banned on 2023-03-13 17:52:29 for: Creating multiple nations, ban evasion. The ban is for 150 more days." Not even a month after being banned and you're creating more nations smh. Have fun getting banned, again, for ban evasion. @Alex

Ew no. Aurora is the og. Aurora 4 life.

Definitely glad to see the return of Borealis. Also, hey George lol.

I concur with Sara and Fulcrum

Pretty sure they've been in VM the entire time. They did say "Although I'm still in vacation mode" after all.

I look forward to doing business with you, good sir.

My only true interaction with KT was towards the tail end of "The NAPpening." You going to rectify that @Velyni Vas? :serious:

There's the Recycling Center Initiative project that increases the amount of pollution reduction from recycling centers by 5 per center and makes it so you can create another center. Green Technologies project reduces manufacturing pollution by 25%, reduces farm pollution by 50%, and increases subway pollution reduction by 25. You can also curb the effects of pollution (disease) with hospitals. Hospitals reduce disease by 2.5% and you can build 5 per city. There's also a project (Clinical Research Center) that increases disease reduction to 3.5% per hospital and allows you to build a sixth hospital in each city.

Define "interaction with other nations." What kind of economic boosts?

It's a long-running joke and meant to be spelled that way lol. I'm literally not a pirate nation and don't agree with this. My main frustration with pirates is how annoying it is to deal with their lower infra lol. A handful of things you suggested (especially the no blockading thingy) are just smooth brain and not good fixes for your supposed problem. You do have multiple options. You could totally choose to not be in an alliance, but you'll grow a lot slower and face a lot more challenges. Also, you have the choice of hundreds of alliances to try to join (each with their own characteristics, communities, personalities, etc). You have options, it's just the feasibility of the options varies.

Fortgor over here saying he's going to try all the alliances like they're free samples lmao. 💀 But I do wish you luck in finding the right alliance for you.

I kind of disagree with this as it basically just promotes more inactivity. Because why the heck would you log on to sell what you're producing on the market when you can have an improvement that basically does it for you? Especially if it's giving you double what the resource is going for! (This is not considering the fact that you would have to weigh your time to sell versus using improvement slots for it.)

Hmmmm... C++. Interesting choice. All your base are belong to us.
