Peace be with you, and with our Rose

This has to be the worst change I have ever seen. How does my nation with 20 cities drop nearly half population, loose over 50% income, Jump 2000 in pollution, Drop avg income by nearly half, drop resource production to near 0 and negatives, in 2 minutes? Well I will tell you, thats what happens when a horrible unthought "fix" is implemented. Now I dont dump tons of time in this game and do not nearly have the perfect build in my nation because of this. Now I am sure if I started with a very calculated nation build the update wouldnt have quite screwed me up so much but this update is ridiculous. This reminds me of Pixel Nations when the owner purposely ruined the game. I have played nation simulation games for near constant 6 years, but id rather play nothing than what this game is coming to now.

I consider as many cities and infra the goal. At least as I look at the game. More cities mean a bugger military, income, production, etc. The goal of nations in the real world tends to be power and growth. As far as a realistic gameplay goes there can become a point where you can just grow and get out of targets. Although I would say that number is probably getting near if not higher than 11-13.

A black and white flower, which im going to go out ona limb and assume to be a rose. Couldnt tell you what that symbolizes.

In theory yeah why not, but I think my reasonable side would turn down that offer under more than most circumstances

Newer smoke detectors will talk, as well as beep. If it is beeping over and over you should replace it. I would also recommend hard wiring them too if they are not already.

ISIS is without a doubt a major issue. Something does need to be done. I am not saying ban all immigrants, stop all refugees, check everything everywhere. But our border security must be enhanced. Research needs to be done into members and they need to be delt with. As an American living within a short distance of NYC and remembering that day, I can say one thing an that is America will not let itself or anyone else go down without a fight. ISIS has made threats against the USA, and they will be dealt with. I pray for the lives of people all over the world and their safety. I also hope that no one will let themselves live in fear either. Id also like to mention to "all Americans are immigrants". No not all are immigrants descendants maybe. But lets get real correct and take the dictionary definition "a : a person who comes to a country to take up permanent residence b : a plant or animal that becomes established in an area where it was previously unknown" So what about the people who came before the USA was even a country? Now I might as well also mention that !@#$ Sapiens, originated in the African Continent. So are not most of us immigrants under the same concept "all Americans are immigrants"

Better than Metro

I approve this message

Is this supposed to be scary?

I think this could make things quite interesting

I wont sit here and bore people with me nit picking each topic, mainly because I don't have the time for that at the moment. I do have to say if you're going to throw statistics in the air don't make them up, European with banned ownership of guns are not safer in fact they are more dangerous like guns or not that is the facts. I also have to add in that multiple players have said that the second amendment to the US Constitution is for hunting. I still have found no logical reasoning for this. Why? Well because back in that area stores were very very far and few between, people grew food and hunted just to survive especially in a continent that was not very well established compared to the rest of the world. What doe seem to make sense though is that they just finished a war with one of the strongest empires in the world against a oppressive government. Without muskets which keep in my mind was what the military also had (you cant own even close to the type of weapons the military has today without very special permits and licenses) these people and citizens never would have stood even a chance of winning the war. The next thing I would like to cover is that the Constitution says "Congress shall make no law respecting and establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. meaning none of them should receive endorsement even equal endorsement." Therefor no religion or religions should have endorsement even equal endorsement across the board. Now as much I would love to type more about all of these things I have places to go right now, have a good day everyone.

I wish there was a nice way to put when someone is bat shit crazy. Lets start by saying you are a troll, but unfortunately you may not be because there are people in this world who actually believe and agree with your statement. First off thing here that really bothers me is the rape, so because men get statistically raped less that makes it not a big deal. How about when groups and organizations to help men who have been raped get through it loos funding and well cease to exist, this is not something new and has happened. Rape is rape whether the victim be female or a male. Rape can be just as traumatizing for men as it is for females, but lets face it would you go and get help if you were raped and people looked at it as a joke or not a big deal just because you're a man. We should also not forget women are more likely to cheat on their partner. The rate of women in prison in the United States continues to go up overall. There are also more percentage of blacks than whites in prison does that automatically make it right to say every colored person is violent or unstable? I'm not saying women are horrible or evil and men are perfect, because well no gender or race or culture is perfect even if you try to argue that they are. What I am saying though is lets try and be fair and equal to each other as much as we can when it comes to gender and race.

Before starting let me say I am not a Men's or Women's rights supporter I am a Equality Supporter. But to say porn objectifies women is very ignorant. Lets first start off by adding in that no one is forced to work in the porn industry just like no one is forced to work in the law, medical, construction, or any other certain field of work, take that with a grain of salt if you are in a oppressed nation. Now something else that may be more relevant worldwide is that both genders male and females included work in the porn industry. So by saying women are objectified by it then lets not forget the men who work in this field too. Now with that stating if someone is to troll at least make up something realistic that we can argue about.

Legalize it for a multitude of reasons. We all know we can tax it The war on Drugs has been a horrible failure People should have the right to The plant and chemicals in itself are "near impossible to overdose on" One upside many people forget is that when something like this is legalized a huge circle of crime is if not destroyed it is very close. If its legal to go and buy there is no need for "dealers", "lacing" with much worse drugs, etc. The thing people cant forget is that any smoke is not good for your lungs and well just about the rest of your body. Also even if you may have better control high than people believe it is still a drug. I say drug because it does have THC, that results in a altered perception of reality This must be considered when legalizing and have proper regulation just like the use of Alcohol.
