Poll is open for a week, then this will be over. Very last chance for ya'll to not have terrible taste.

Tbh, I probably missed them when i was copying names out to discord.

Only took 3 attempts at submitting it. Preliminary vote for the name of last global. Vote for the ones you like. Will almost certainly be a 2nd round of voting later on. Also a heads up in the future this naming process is likely to be changed somewhat.

This pretty much. Most importantly to me, there is a myriad of ethical concerns in this kind stretching of the moderation reach. There are also very important practical issues. A good place to start would be what if the hosting server (rightly I might add) refuses to allow access? Is Alex supposed then threaten to ban them too? Pretty sure that would be a violation of Discord's ToS to say nothing of US law. And even with access there are still many ways to hide stuff on Discord; And most servers are not set up to handle them reliably. So even ethics and availability concerns aside, a program like this would require Discord's platform level tools. In principle I do agree that the official areas should have a more cohesive moderation system both in rules and punishments, including some 'global' level punishments. That being said, there are certainly issues, mainly with the ability to adequately track and link accounts on various platforms. Some stuff has been taken up cross platform before, but its an exception not the rule because it requires a large time investment from staff to do that. Shifty makes a great point here as well. When ever a rule exists, there will always be a line of people trying to bend it in their favor or alter its interpretation to their favor. It's also possible to make a mistake, even acting in good faith. In fact thats guaranteed. You are unquestionably requesting PW staff moderate other servers. That it is only in one area, does not change what it is. ``````````````````````````` Now as the Lead Mod for the official server, I have severe ethical concerns with even attempting such a course as OP has requested. Especially when the needed tools for such a venture are not even obtainable much less actively available. So the answer is a flat no. Part of being a mod or having any authority for that matter, is knowing where your authority should stop, and this is very much past that line. It is ultimately the right and responsibility of Discord's team to moderate their platform. And it is to them you'll need to take up any issues outside of PW's small confines.

The nazism rule does exist in weird place where it both covers the promotion of nazi material and also separately accusing others of being nazis. From a record keeping perspective that is a valid issue to bring up and I'll add it to the list of things to be addressed next time the rules/policies are updated. That being said, if we are being intellectually honest, downfall parodies are very much associating whoever is being memed on with nazis. Whether intentional or not that does happen and should fall under whatever rule covers calling each other nazis. That being said, the community has already had a discussion on downfall in particular and per Alex it enjoys a special exclusion from the rules. I doubt Lossi knew about that specific exception so I have let them know about it and struck your warn from the record.

Do you even know who I am? I know many things, Things that are, Things that were, and even some things that have not yet come to pass.

@PhoenyxYou want the truth? You think you can handle the truth? Well?

72 hour warning before your suggestion probably won't make voting. Please do have better names this time.

EXPLOSION!!! MUDA MUDA MUDA

or hear me out you can make these and many more terms at the negotiating table. With real player interaction not shallow labels. And hard no on hard coding treaty chains.

I regret democracy, pls do better.

Suggest names, please remember me and the wiki mods will yeet profane, sentences, and otherwise unworkable names from the vote. Will go until after the majority of parties have signed peace or whatever.

Deleting takes 30 seconds, fixing isn't possible at all and any attempt at it will consume many hours.

This comes down to using alex's dev time wisely. Yes baseball could be fixed. Is it worth the effort at the cost of other things like a buff to navy or search boxes taking nation/alliance ids, not so much.

Again we aren't messing with mobile nav.

Per my usual, I would toss slots entirely and go for a research type system where every project has a base effect which you can increase through further investment. Specializations arise from investment choices rather than a hard limit which is more organic. It also scales better with nation growth. Ofc a few projects would need some serious tweaks in this setup, but thats needed anyways.

For those concerned, menus on the navbar will open on mouseover not on click. Here is a question though, should the navbar be pinned to the screen, or should it move down when you scroll so its always visible?

Please keep in mind the mock ups are far from a finished product, they are to help get a sense of where things go, not so much a reflection on final appearances. Also this process will almost not effect the mobile navigation at all.

Or we can not nerf the weakest unit in the game into the dirt? Also your now tying an rp element to gameplay after the fact, thats never a good idea. BTW, beige won't leave again until its replacement is ready.

First off, lets ignore the presented numbers and look at the fundamental concepts. Fundamentally this a further punishment for losing a war and further benefit for winning. This also means that in its fine balancing it can only have two states, help attackers/hurt defenders or be so weak as to do nothing. Now the question is that something that is wanted/needed. The game already punishes losers pretty heavily. Too heavily in fact, this is the general community consensus and also the objective observation after looking at how conflicts play out. That means if has any effect it is defacto OP. That only leaves having no appreciable effect, which makes it a waste of time implement because it will never do anything.

If you politely request it alex will already release names being held by dead alliances/nations on a case by case. As for processing power, the only power that should be being used used is a couple extra 0.001 ms on a database call once a day while global stats are called. Unless ofc someones goes and deliberately searches these alliances out triggering an update of their db entry. I can see counting towards stats being an issue if in fact they do so to be an issue but thats better fixed by just not counting them. I'd point out the game doesn't even check for truly dead alliances with 0 members at all. Such alliances get deleted when someone checks their page. Adding a completely new check for the purposed edge case is actually rather expensive on processing time for no benefit.

Pantheon has the moral high ground in this, except for the part where they still exist and claim to provide protection to anyone, but yeah aside from that they have the moral high ground.

I plead doing this at 5am, anyways added

Its also for the wrong war.

Did you ever crack the code of the last leak I sent you?
