Emperor Tristar Majestica

Statement from the Office of the Emperor Emperor Tristar Majestica would be honoured to attend Tomainia's establishment ceremony. The Emperor does not drink alcohol. We hope that this does not pose any difficulties. The Imperial Republic of Hungadada looks forward to establishing fruitful and strong relations. Thank you. --

Would like these 4 pieces of land for June, please. Thanks!

Welcome to HNS: The Hungadada Report, where we cover the big headlines on Hungadada. It's the 3rd of June. Let's take a look at the headlines: Port Royalty and Lionsgate Hospitals Merge: Healthcare Revamp Port Royalty General Hospital and Lionsgate Olympus Medical Center merged today to create 'Port Royalty Lionsgate Olympus Hospital' (PRLOH). The merger, which had in been in the works for over 3 years was finally completed today, and will join over 4,000 nurses, doctors, and other medical staff in a bid to provide the best healthcare possible to the people in Lionsgate, Port Royalty and the surrounding towns and villages. PRLOH was certified as a 'Level A Trauma Hospital' meaning it has the capability to provide medical care to patients with the worst of threatening injuries, 24/7. The merger, which created 3,000 new jobs in healthcare was best summed up by the Director of Port Royalty Lionsgate Olympus Hospital, Dr. James Carl: "This merger is a fantastic opportunity to provide the highest level of medical care to thousands of patients each day, all day, every day." Facilities The PRLOH campus is truly gargantuan, with 3 different buildings being directly involved with healthcare, and a further 3 for R&D, a medical students learning centre, and staff wellbeing. The 3 different buildings are: General Healthcare, Speciality Cases and Trauma. All 3 buildings have an ICU. The hospital has a total of 7,000 beds, 55 operating rooms (not including trauma rooms), with 20 more under construction, a state-of-the-art 'Skills Lab', 4 surgical robots designed to help surgeons conduct operations in the best way possible, 2 helipads, 5 operating rooms designed specifically for trauma cases, a burns centre, a health clinic, a physiotherapy clinic, and a psychiatric ward with 200 beds and psychiatry specialists. Building 1: General Healthcare General Healthcare is the first building on the campus of PRLOH. It is where most patients will be admitted, as they require general care (appendectomies, concussions etc.). It is also the building where all visitors to the hospital enter from. The General Healthcare building is also where the main Emergency Room is located. Building 1 has 20 operating rooms, 6 MRI machines, 3 CAT scan machines, and 2 PET scan machines. General Healthcare also houses the Paediatrics Ward. The health clinic is connected to the building. It also has, among many other things, a large cafeteria, a gift shop, and a courtyard. Building 2: Speciality Cases Building 2 is the Speciality Cases building. Patients with medical conditions requiring speciality care (for example heart conditions, neurological conditions, or cancer) are treated in building 2. Speciality Cases also houses the Psychiatry Ward, and has a helipad. It also has a physiotherapy clinic. Building 2 has 5 MRI machines, 3 CAT scan machines, and 4 PET scan machines. Building 2 also has 2 surgical "robots". Building 2s Neurology and Cardiothoracic departments are the best in Hungadada. The Speciality Cases building has 35 operating rooms. Building 3: Trauma Centre Building 3 houses the Trauma Centre. The Trauma Centre has access to a speciality Emergency Room (smaller than the general Emergency room). Ambulances carrying trauma patients can be directed to a separate ambulance bay so that trauma doctors can receive patients faster. The Trauma Centre has access to 5 trauma-designed operating rooms with 2 more being constructed. The building has a helipad, and has access to 2 surgical robots, 3 MRI machines, 4 CAT scan machines and 2 PET scan machines. Building 3 has an ICU for trauma patients, a Burns Centre and a Poison Control Centre. -- Overall, Port Royalty Lionsgate Olympus Hospital is capable and extremely efficient. HNS visited the site, and was impressed to see that beds were already full, with hospital operations in full swing. A patient commented: "Although I have a fear for hospitals in general, the stay here was fantastic. The doctors and nurses could not have been nicer, and more capable." HNS reached out to the Ministry of Health and Wellbeing for comment: "We are pleased to see that this merger between two great hospitals has gone well. For sure, the merger has created a new level of healthcare, and we look forward to see how the hospital progresses." -- Hungadada and Sweden: New Deals and New Friendship "I am proud today, to be standing alongside King Zafri, to announce some new treaties and deals that our two nations shall commit to. Today marks a new day of friendship and co-operation between Hungadada and Sweden, one that shall live on for a good while to come." - Emperor Tristar Majestica Hungadada and Sweden signed significant new treaties and agreements yesterday. Among those, a mutual defence pact, a trade agreement and a free travel agreement. Emperor Tristar Majestica also confirmed the joint 'Hyperloop' program to bring a variant of the Hungadadian speedTrack to Sweden, and to connect Port Royalty to Gothenburg. Parliamentary Committee Slams Government on Organised Crime The Parliamentary Committee for the Prevention of Organised Crime (PC - POC) today released a damning report on the governments efforts on preventing organised crime. The PC- POC, in its annual report, commented on a variety of issues that the government failed to address, and gave the Government a grade of 'D-', on protecting Hungadada from organised crime. The report specifically criticised the repeated budget cuts towards organised crime task forces and investigations by police. Money earmarked to go towards funding organised crime task forces and investigations was instead spent on a classified DSDH military research project, the name of which was not revealed. The report also criticised the government about how it handled high level cases, calling police forces "untrained" and "brutal" in their methods on handling organised crime cases. The ability for police forces to cope with large organised crime gangs was also called into question, as there was a 25% shortage of minimum officers country-wide who were needed to help investigate organised crime. The PC- POC suggested an immediate relief on cuts to police forces and strongly suggested creating a government task-force instead of localised police task-forces to help combat the 6% estimated growth of organised crime syndicates. HNS reached out to the Office of the Emperor for comment: "The Emperor is studying the report carefully, and will consult with his cabinet before taking any further action. Emperor Tristar welcomes constructive criticism, and in a bid to drastically improve the current organised crime fighting climate, will definitely be meeting with police and community leaders to understand how organised crime affects people directly. " An anonymous source from the OE also informed HNS that the Emperor was unhappy that organised crime was on the rise. -- That will conclude HNS: The Hungadada Report. Join us next time for more news, information, and award winning journalism. -- NOTE TO READERS: Thank you for reading HNS: The Hungadada Report. This report was a pilot project for HNS. We are no longer updating the General Broadcast series. We will instead focus on developing a new project, this one. We look forward to providing you with the news. -- Questions can be posted below, and will be answered by HNS or a government representative if necessary. Thank you!

Ministry of Transportation After careful consultation with various different authorities and bodies, we'd like to have Hungadada added to the network. Thank you.

Hungadada is thrilled to see King Zafri and Sweden back on the world stage. We look forward to continuing our warm and friendly diplomatic relationship.

Yes, that's right! THANK YOU!!! (issue can be closed now, I guess)

Hi, in my notifications feed I noticed that I had war declared upon me (for one) and that attacks from the person who was attacking me were being carried out. But, when I checked my war feed, there was nothing. It means that I can't defend my stuff, because there is nowhere where I can do so. This is my war log as of the posting of this topic: This is my notifications feed (the notifications are from the 25th, but there is nothing in my war feed) What's happening?! Thanks so much!

Well, that escalated quickly...

STATEMENT RELEASED IN REGARDS TO RECENT MEDIA REPORT: HNS: An anonymous source has informed us of a increase in radioactivity from the seafloor of the North Sea. This source, from inside the Radioactive Materials Alert Office (RMAO), responsible for the security and management/logistics of radioactive materials, fuel and waste says that there was a significant increase in the radioactivity levels of the sea floor and sea about 14km off the coast of Port Royalty, as was noted by the scientific vessel HSV Otter. An urgent report was sent to the RMAO, which took immediate action, but has not yet officially released a statement. As of this moment, there is no known danger to humans, and there have been no apparent consequences in regards to the increased radioactivity levels. Our source says an investigation is underway, and that no specific cause has been attributed. -- STATEMENT: In light of a recent media report by the Hungadada News Service and various other news organisations regarding an incident involving a spike of radioactivity levels, the Board of the Radioactive Materials Alert Office (RMAO) would like to release information and provide detail. The RMAO recieved an urgent report from the science research vessel HSV Otter, which had noted a "significant increase in radioactivity levels 14km off the coast of Port Royalty". An RMAO investigations and containment breach team was sent to the approximate area. It was determined that there was no leak of radioactive materials. The RMAO has placed the investigation into this spike of radiation levels on the highest priority. There is nothing to be worried about at this point in time. A report has also been filed with Port Royalty Police and with the Imperial Protection Group (IPG). The RMAO is also consulting with experts in radioactivity from the University of Port Royalty, and from the DSDH. While these actions may seem extreme, the RMAO is required to begin talks with various different agencies so that we can get the biggest picture of the situation possible. We would like to re-iterate that there is, at this point in time, no danger to health. There is nothing to be worried about. We ask members of the public to only relay news from official sources, and avoid relaying sensationalized material regarding this incident. The RMAO will update this statement when new information is available. -Daniella Redbean CHAIR, BOARD for the RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS ALERT OFFICE ------------ Questions, should you have any, will be answered by the RMAO or DSDH representatives.

Ministry of Foreign Affairs EMERGENCY STATEMENT PRIORITY: RED-1 Following our previous statement: Military medical staff have been deployed to help local and national health services cope with an influx of victims. All hospitals are now being equipped to handle a large number of infected patients. The equipment that is provided is highly specialised, and will help to quarantine the infected, and keep doctors and medical staff protected. Temporary quarantine zones are also being built by the military to help hospitals cope. As there is no cure for the plague, medical care will be focused on dealing with the individual symptoms that arise from being infected. The military will also support ambulance crews. Finally, pharmaceutical manufacturing has been increased substantially, to help in providing nessesary drugs to help combat the plague as best we can.

Ministry of Foreign Affairs EMERGENCY STATEMENT PRIORITY: RED-1 Hungadada has now been made aware of the unfolding situation, and the Emperor is holding an emergency meeting with the cabinet to begin implementing the next necessary steps to reduce the effect that this leak may have. Hungadadian borders at this point in time is officially closed. The entire country is on lockdown. All air, sea, and land borders are closed indefintley. Hungadadians abroad should contact an official Hungadadian embassy or consulate in their area, and visit the Ministry of Health's Emergency Incident Report website for up to date information. Please follow the instructions of the local authorities. We expect that Ottawa's authorities continue to keep the world informed about this incident. [THIS STATEMENT WILL BE UPDATED PERIODICALLY]

STATEMENT THE MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS Hungadada welcomes the Milky Way Initiative to Orbis, and looks forward to establishing fruitful and long lasting relations. May your nation prosper for eons to come. -- Daniel Jackson Minister of Foreign Affairs

As was mentioned above, the Maldives has always been chosen due to its varied landscape compared to Hungadada. Nothing will be destroyed. Operation Io is being conducted soley for training purposes, and Hungadada does not have any intention of threatning or showcasing its military.

Welcome to the 5th installment of the Hungadada News Network's General Broadcast. Let's look at the news: Operation Io - Excercise to Take Place in the Indian Ocean An OSDH (Office for Security and Defense for Hungadada) spokesperson has confirmed to HNS that Operation Io, an annual military excerise will take place in the Hungadadian Maldives territories in the Indian Ocean. These excerises aim to prepare special forces in training, as well as the naval fleet, air force and ground troops for action in varied landscapes. Emperor Tristar, who is visiting the Maldives currently, is also expected to take part in training as the supreme commander of the armed forces. The Emperor touched down in the Maldives for a 5-day conference with the Maldivian government and local communities. In the past, Operation Io has involved up to 15,000 troops and over 1400 special forces troops. University of Lionsgate to Trial New Tech The University of Lionsgate will trial new technology from next week, according to various sources. The University's aptly named 'Technology HQ' will be trialling various new technologies to see if they can be sucessfully implemented into the University enviroment. 300 students have already signed on to become subjects to the new technology, and will be able to use and report back on how well the technology works. Taking a forefront is the main focus on AR or Augmented Reality, which is a live or indirect view of real life, that is supplemented (augmented) with computer-generated visuals, sounds, data or GPS. New AR in the university classroom will aim to create a more deep learning experience. Here's what Carl Lancaster, Director of Technology at the University of Lionsgate had to say about it: "AR is really the future of education. By implementing AR in the classroom, our students will be able to get much better views of the material that the professor is teachning. Take physics for example. Using AR, students will be able to actually see models of atoms or what they are studying in front of them, rather than on a screen or a board. This sort of access and involvment is unprecendented, and this experimentation with new technology is what keeps UoL at the forefront of education innovation." The trials will take place over a 3 month time period, where different educators, students, and faculty will be asked to provide insight into the technology, its strengths and weaknesses. Port Royalty Botanical Gardens to Undergo Major Restoration and Renovation Port Royalty's 210 year old botanical garden will undergo a major restoration and renovation. The main building, which is over 210 years old was in desperate need of restoration, and Port Royalty's governor gave the go ahead yesterday. The building will be restored and will also be re-designed from the inside, so as to meet modern fire and safety standards, and also so that it can be better utilized as a mueseum to showcase the botanical gardens' history. The garden itself will also get some renovation done, especially to the pathways, which have been eroded over time. Architecht Heaven Evan, who is in charge of the resoration and renvoation had this to say: "We'll be consulting with multiple historians of the 1800's to ensure that our restoration work is completed in a manner that makes the building meet modern standards, but also in a way that keeps the 210 plus year heritage of this building, and the garden itself. The botanical gardens are a sublime place to be, especially during the summer, and being surrounded by so much history and nature is something we do not want to spoil. Unfortunatley, the building is in really bad shape, and restorations were probably needed some 30 years ago. We expect the entire project to be completed within 2 years at a cost of $500,000." Port Royalty Botanical Gardens welcomes over 15,000 vistors every year. Some features of the garden include an approximately 1,046 year old oak tree, and among other things, a garden aptly named "The Garden of Death" for its hundreds of deadly plant species. PRBG will close for restoration and renovation on the 21st of April. --- That will be all for this General Broadcast. Questions can be posted below. Thank you!

An update: speedTrack - Updates 14 months and 10,000 builders later, all speedTrack stations have finally been upgraded to reflect the everchanging technological landscape of Hungadada. Although the speedTrack Project reflected how advanced and capable Hungadada was, the stations designed around the system were not. Almost immediatley, representatives from the Ministry of Technology and Department of Transportation Security (now the Office of Transportation Security) were answering the question: "Why are the stations so ugly?" With no plausible answer, architechts, designers, engineers got to work planning a complete overhaul of the stations. Finally, after 14 months of non-stop dedication and work, its here: Yes, this is Lionsgate Central Staion, completley re-designed. A beautiful structure now covers Lionsgate Central, and with it come new features, with extra attention paid to the aesthetic of the station. The station has been equipped with new hardware and software: faster ticket gates, faster CT Card scanners, improved signage, new information boards, and better implentation of the PA system. 3 new cafe's are also set to open, with one cafe planned to bestaffed by robots. More greenery has also been added, with around 30% of the station covered in plant walls. In the middle of the station, one gigantic screen shows all the information commuters and travellers need, from arrivals to departure times, places, the weather, and even news headlines. Lionsgate Central has been given the makeover of a lifetime, and the story is similar at all speedTrack stations across the country. The MoT and OTS have outdone themselves here, and have by far made up for their blunder originally. Well done! Moving on, speedTrack Corp. also announced that their Coast to Mainland Service is now operational, after a few hiccups getting the system connected to the control room. The CtMS will connect the city of Fort Ruby Hill across the sea to Whitewater Station, which serves the entire Whitewater Test Range Area. This will allow around 7,000 people direct and fast access to the mainland. A second CARGO-CtMS line has also been built to allow for quick transportation of cargo to and from Whitewater. Both lines will open tomorrow, and the Emperor is expected to be at Fort Ruby Hill to open the lines. Lastly, speedTrack also announced that 3 months from now, they would be moving control rooms. The current speedTrack control room is located at Lionsgate Central Station, however due to unforeseen growth of the system, and the implenentation of new systems a larger, advanced and more capable control system is required. speedTrack will have their new control room at Port Royalty Station, which provides ample space for the current requirements of the system, but also for future upgrades. This is the future control room at Port Royalty. It is undergoing stringent and thorough systems testing. The new control room uses new AI to help its staffers keep tabs on all the things taking place on the speedTrack network. The AI, nicknamed Brian, has advanced capabilites, which have not been revealed. That will wrap it up for speedTrack Updates. speedTrack is proving an integral part of Hungadadian life, and with these new upgrades, it seems that this will only grow. Port Royalty International Airport - New Control Tower It's no secret that Port Royalty Airport is in need of a major control tower upgrade. The main airport got a complete design overhaul, but very little attention was given to the control tower. Therefore, today, the Ministry of Transportation announced that it would be working with architecht and designer firm Simple Co. to design a new control tower. According to an MoT spokesperson, the requirements that the control tower should meet were: 1. Complete view of the airfield 2. Advanced RADAR coverage 3. Advanced AI systems. 4. Capability to handle double the traffic that the airport allows 4. Back-up power and AI systems 6. Ability to upgrade capabilites at least to 75% more than currently 7. Improved security -- The control tower is set to have AI implemented deep within the workings of ATC. So much will be AI be implemented, that in the case of the airport not being able to handle all traffic; the AI will be able to analyze the entire situation, understand what requirements each individual aircraft wants, and provide feedback and directions on its own. This level of technological implementation is unprecedented. United Hungadada Technologies (UHT), the company that designed and build the new AI system claims that it can function completley independently, without need for any human air traffic controller. The MoT says the entire project will cost no more than $4 million. This is what the tower will look like: Port Royalty International Airport: ------- That will be all. Any questions will be answered by an MoT spokesperson. Thank you.

OFFICE OF THE MINISTER OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS: "Good evening. After a long investigation with multiple authorities, including the Maldivian government, we were able to make certain that 2 children who were smuggled into Wintery had gone missing earlier in the Maldives. Their parents have been informed. Hungadada is outraged at the human trafficking that is happening. We are working with the Maldivian authorities to figure out how the 2 children got from the Maldives to Wintery. Of course, we have full faith in the authorities of Wintery, that they can take care of the kids until we can figure out where exactly they came from. A case file regarding the outcome of the investigation will be provided privately to nations should they want it. Maldivian authorities also arrested 20 people yesterday who have been charged with human trafficking, kidnapping, and child endangerment after an undercover investigation found them blatantly engaging in smuggling and human trafficking, both with children and adults. 3 of the arrested have admitted that they are part of the NOSTRA human trafficking gang. They admit that this gang worldwide reach, and preys on the innocent and poor. A full blown investigation concerning NOSTRA is now underway, both in Hungadada and in all of its territories. We will keep the world updated. Thank you."

Hungadada welcomes King Zafri back on the throne of Sweden. We will continue observe the situation for the time being.

Which one are we using? This thread or the "original thread"?

Welcome to the HNS General Broadcast. Let's take a look at some of the major news events concerning Hungadada: Hungadada Expands Emperor Tristar announced yesterday that new land had been acquired by Hungadada. The new land helps boost Hungadadian influence in the area of the Channel. However, the new land is not expected to be heavily populated. DSDH statements seem to suggest that the new expansion will be used for a large military settlement. HNS' Sara Jones reports: "Yes, as you mentioned, the new land is expected to become a large military settlement. Recent reports by the DSDH seem to suggest this, although interestingly, the Emperor made no mention of what the land would be used for. I took a military-chartered plane over to the area, and from what I could see, a few settlements have already been set up. A Coast Guard station is already present there, with clear markings to expand that station, while barracks and a small naval base also appear to be planned. Army flags were also in the vicinity. What appears to be a temporary CEI base has also been constructed. This particular region is known for its plants and wildlife, and from the looks of it, CEI is expressing interest in studying the area." Port Royalty International Airport: 'speedTrack Airport' Construction Underway After months of planning and debate between the senate and the cabinet, and over 10 different proposals by the MoT and MoTn, direct transportation to Port Royalty International Aiport via speedTrack will take place. Construction has already begun. Hungadada's capital, Port Royalty will be the first city to be connected to PRIA, with a direct line to and from the airport to Port Royalty Central Station. The connection will be built about 85% underground, and 15% above ground. Construction has also begun at PRIA, where an underground speedTrack station is being built. The station will be based upon a multi-level floor design, which will be gradually built as more lines connecting PRIA to Hungadadian cities are built. A line from Lionsgate is also being planned, but the building will only commence after Port Royalty's line is complete. Further lines that lead directly from Fort Hungadada, Gull City, Fort Granger, Amber, Poppy Hill, North Bridge, and Fort Ruby are in their planning stages. Artists' impressions: Port Royalty International Airport speedTrack Station (while not in this particular impression, the station will also be entirely carbon neutral, and will be built with the environment in mind. Plants and trees will also be added) speedTrack Airport Transit Vehicle (the capacity of the vehicle is estimated to be around 500 passengers total, with 4 carriages, for a total of 125 passengers per carriage) CURRENT AIRPORT The total cost of the project dubbed 'Booster 1' is estimated to be between $600 and $670 million. The MoI released a public statement saying the costs would be around $650 million. The first line, Port Royal - P.R.I.A. is expected to open to the public next year. That will conclude this broadcast. Questions or comments can be posted down below. Thank you!

Before I start: 1. The topic of this OP is "NatRP is pretty dead... I have an idea to revive it" not "NatRP is pretty dead..." 2. There is more to this thread than meets the eye. It may seem like an invite to post lengthy (perhaps legitimate) criticisms here, but that's not it. The way that people are posting here is causing tempers to flare, and general "chaos". As I've said before, you are perfectly entitled to your opinion. Instead of causing a ruckus here, it would benefit all of us if people who have criticisms of NatRP, in general, could just create another thread. The point of this thread was lost in the argument to-and-fro between those who either don't use NatRP or operate only (mostly) on Organic RP against those in the NatRP community. --- I don't think you understand the point of this thread. Let me explain it to you (and everyone else). I created this thread because I felt that NatRP was dying. People were/are not posting strong, meaningful RP that the whole NatRP community understood and built off of. Therefore, in order to create some sort of "framework" (as you said) for better roleplay, I decided to create this thread, with the idea that creating "events" would help boost not only activity levels but also roleplay quality. Furthermore, I posted this "events" idea here so that the NatRP community and myself could see general consensus for those who support this idea, while also being able to see those who do not. As mentioned at the bottom of my original post, I was also looking for improvements that could be made to the idea, so that this community, in general, could get behind this idea and improve it. If criticisms of the event idea come up, I'd be happy to address them. They haven't come up yet, which indicates that most of the NatRP community is behind the idea. On your point of "demand to be entertained by Mods": The "events' idea is not by any means, a demand to be entertained by mods. I don't know how you came up with that in the first place, but that is simply not true. Going back to my point about improving the idea, people have been discussing having a designated player post these events instead once a month, thus removing the need of having a mod posting the event. Besides, if Alice is not okay with the idea, she can say no, and that's the end of that. I'm not ordering her or anyone else to start coming up with events and start posting them. All that being said, clearly, certain people seem to think that this post (albeit clarifications) as an open invite to post lengthy, off-topic posts regarding their opinion of NatRP and what's wrong with it. I am not asking for anyone to support the idea. By all means, throw it in the dirt and run it over if that is how you really feel. I'm just doing my duty as a member of the NatRP community and trying to see if this community is willing to explore new ideas and help this place from dying. But, what I'm certainly not asking for is off-topic posts that do nothing but derail the thread, and cause tempers amongst everyone to flare. And I've given people who do the aforementioned thing a good solution: stop posting your derailing posts here, and create a whole new thread. Like I've said, I'd be happy to read through that thread and understand the criticisms that some people have about NatRP. Hell, if they provide suggestions in a manner that doesn't disrupt the conversation, I'd be happy to support legitimate ones. I'm not going to idly stand by and idly watch NatRP implode. I've come to like this place and most of the people here. I'll say it again: I am not asking for anyone to support the idea. By all means, throw it in the dirt and run it over if that is how you really feel. But it isn't right to have people who don't even roleplay on NatRP post their opinion here and derail a thread (this part not directed towards you, Avruch). I'm happy to hear opinions of people: as long as they don't derail the original meaning of what was posted. There's a "new post" button for that.

For the second time: If you want to express your opinion on the state of affairs on NatRP, please create another thread, and post your text there. I personally would be happy to see the likes of Sacred Lights offering his opinion on how to improve NatRP somewhere else (not here). This thread is for suggestions on improving the proposed "Mod RP Events" and taking general consensus of who is for it and who is against it (this consensus should come from the people who actively participate in NatRP, who will be affected. Those who use Organic RP will not be affected by this proposal, and thus have no need to be here). Considering that some people here don't use NatRP as their main RP'ing section, I'm asking that you either stop posting here or give helpful advice to improve the proposal. All you're doing now is derailing the thread. In conclusion, if you're not going to provide helpful feedback towards the purpose of this thread, then stop posting here, and do it somewhere else. Thank you.

So, Alice, would you mind stopping by please? Thanks!

There's a reason I told you that... so that people like you don't derail the thread. Amaryllis is right. NatRP has had its failures. Like she said, if you are no longer part of the NatRP community, you need to stop posting inflammatory things here. If it wasn't clear, I asked for a general consensus to see who was onboard with the plan I proposed and suggestions to improve the plan that I proposed. I asked for not one thing more, especially not replies which completely derail the purpose of this thread, and do nothing more than to allow tempers to flare. Max, Sacred Lights and anyone else, if you have critisisms of the NatRP community, go post them on another thread. This place is not the place for your complaining. Seriously... just STOP.
