Hi there !
Due to our government lacks of assiduity, (and a long vacation using the social funds), our nation fell in oblivion.
With a lot of citizen rebellion and a little motivation (guns, among others), our politicals came to an arrangment.
Anyways, we are back in Hippiedom, and (at least for the most of us) we are happy with that.

Yes. 420 and Earth Day all in one week. I was so overcome by cannabis smoke that the next day I allowed myself to be sucked into the corporate vortex and took my reusable mug to Starbucks as they were offering free cup of coffee to all who brought in a reusable mug on Earth Day. I usually use my reusable mug to get my coffee elsewhere, but I sold out to the powerful corporation for nothing more then the price of a cup of coffee!

Is Buffalostan as a nation concerned with the fate of Buffalos? It is an interesting name. I'm curious to know why you choose it.
And what is the story behind that flag? It seems to be about Cuba, but that doesn't look at all like Fidel. Can you enlighten me?

Blame Pelosi. She put the kabash on investigation of the Bush Administration 2 years before Obama could do anything about it. Don't get me wrong, Obama should have acted differently, but Pelosi could have assured that the issue was well on it's way to being resolved if she hadn't stopped house committees from taking action. Conyers (House Judiciary Committee) wanted to act. Blame Pelosi...

Re: Nixon. It is important to realize he was a product of the times. Nixons bad rap had little to do with stealing money from the DNC, and more to do with his history of red baiting and abuses of power to silence his critics, as well as the War in Vietnam, these were the issues that focus
ed energy against Nixon.
But it must be remembered that these things were much worse at the time then they woukd seem today. Nixon was President at a time when both Republicans and Democrats shared a "liberal consensus" on social programs.Nixon created the EPA, and took the U.s. off the gold standard. Ford created the Food Stamp Program. Indeed when Reagan took office most of the programs he curtailed or abolished were Nixon era programs. The right has moved very far to the right. Most those who support Republican Party today would despise a President who advocated Nixon social policy as being a liberal.
That being said let's not forget used the IRS to go after political opponents, illegally spied on dissidents, bombed Cambodia on Christmas even though we were not even at war with them and called the students who protested against it bums the week they were shot at Kent State. He deserved to be impeached, but the actions committed by Bush were far worse. Unfortunately Nancy Pelosi was a gutless fool, who did not take her oath to uphold the constitution as seriously as the the House of Representatives did in 1975.

Cannajuana I read the piece. Are these the portents foretold by Revelations? Is this the heralding of the end of days?
Transportable pipeline technology could harness a 45 day storm that is disaster for one community, by transporting storm water hundreds of miles away to communities that need it. Re-forestation and water permeable pavement would also avert natural disasters and improve the environment. Government may lack the competence to do it, but we should still demand it.
When failure of electric grids caused black outs throughout Northern California a follow up study confirmed that homes in some communities continued to have electricity -- because they had solar electric systems installed. If all else fails have on hand blankets, matches a stash of good weed and a two week supply of emergency food and water.

That solution is possible, but unfortunately these types of catastrophic events are the last thing on any government agenda. Preventative measures are never taken. We always wait until disaster has passed before we realize what we could have done.
And was it just me or did that article convey a subtle message of, "Prepare for the worst. Good luck, but goodbye." ?

Standard spelling is "Socialism," but who here cares about standardization?

Spelling of socialism or socialzim must be in accord with the socialist principle: From each according to their ability, to each according to their needs.
If Flower child nation needs to spell it with a "z" or is spelling it to the best of his or her ability then that should suffice. Similarly, if The Holy Orange Vaticanate of Orange Pomander needs to spell it according to the formula set forth by the ruling class that nation may do so as well.

Finally after they realized I was allowing full civil rights and tons of government programs they changed me to a Father knows Best state and then an Iron Fisted Socialist, which was the label that was perfectly suited to ma nation named Hard line commies. But alas I was too liberal on some issues and since then they've been calling me things like Democratic Socialist, Scandinavian Liberal Paradise and Liberal Democratic Socialist. I keep trying to change it back to Iron Fisted Socialist, but I can not seem to get them to say that. Perhaps if they had an issue that allowed me to imprison all corporate bosses

That's gotten good reviews. I've been a X-Men fan since the 80s. I'm told the movies are skewing wider and wider from the comic book continuity.
Tiefschlaf
1 year 126 days ago
Well, Magneto is cast in a rather sympathetic light. They also introduced some characters which are the contemporaries of Cyclops like Emma Frost, for example, but they focused mostly on the friendship between Charles and Erik. I thought it was fun and that Michael Fassbender, who played Magneto, was amazing. It was definetly better than Wolverine Origins.
The John Lennon Utopia of Strawberrry Fields

My understanding in the comic book continuity, Mystique was born not later than the 19th century (and is a lesbian), Havok is Cyclop's brother (not his father), Emma Frost is a contemporary of Xavier (although the diamond skin came along long after I stopped reading).
Wolverine: Origins sucked.

Hey guys, new to the region. been here before with a few different nations that i just lost track of, and then forgot.
Holy Ornage, LSD usually comes as a liquid or on blotter paper which is soaked in liquid LSD. It can also be taken as a pill. Only taken it once before but it wasn't a full hit, looking forward to that next time i take it. I smoke pot most days and have done coke and pills before, which doesn't even include my prescription of prozac i've been taking on and off for a couple of years. Was always interested in doing shrooms, Strawberry Fields, what was the trip like?

The John Lennon Utopia of Strawberrry Fields

Yea LSD is normally either like a tissue-paper or gel tabs, or liquid.
I did 2 Gel tabs for my first trip it was awesome, I recommend doing atleast 2 for the full effect. It was my first year of college, I would have considered my self a moderate before, but by the end I was a social anarchist Hippy.
Actually the first time I did acid was when I was really introduced to the Beatles, before this I never had really listened to the Beatles. There was four of us, and we spent all night smokin' and listening to the Beatles. I watched the Yellow Submarine for the first time. Which I highly recommend doing if any of you ever trip. We did it at night and in the morning when we were coming down(lasts 12hrs or more) we went to this lake and watched the sun rise. Was one of the top experiences of my life, have loved the Beatles ever since. Shortly after I made this nation and joined Hippiedom
My 2nd trip was a week later on 4/20, that was a blast. Like 15 of my college buddies go to this cabin(modern one) in the woods. Everyone had alot of weed, I had an ounce of green myself. Did two gel tabs again stayed up for like 36hrs all of 4/20 smokin' tons of bud.
I tripped a third time a year later with this girl I know. And I haven't tripped since then, though i'd like to if I could find it. <_<

We're inviting your region to send a representative to the festival, starting the 18th and running through the weekend, to celebrate with us. They can come for the whole thing or just stay a little while and leave when they want.

Hurray I have internet again!
Yes me and my two Siamese cats are fine, thanxs for your concern. It was just taking awhile to get everything up and running again, electricity, hot/drinkable water, internet, etc. But that should no longer be an issue, finally.
As for passwording the region, i'd like to avoid doing that. In my experience I find that in our case the password could do more harm than good. It would restrict new nations from moving in causing our population to decrease, and to be honest we are almost always under threat of being raided, so the password would have to stay up all the time to prevent being raided.
I have friends in the FRA and other defender groups who keep me up to date on intel relating to possible raids on us, and can provide assistance if we where to get raided.
Which to actually pull off a raid on us would be rather difficult because since I have 13 endorsements, they'd need 15 WA (1 wa to be endorsed 13 to match me and 1 more to put them ahead).
Most of the time smaller regions get raided since the raiders only have have like 3 or 4 WA online during the update, and in more extreme cases maybe close to 10, so 15 would be really difficult to pull off. And if it was pulled off, they wouldn't have enough influence to immediately boot anyone here with a high endorsements count, so it would only take a few defenders to come in an endorse me or someone with a high endorsements to re-pass the invader.
If people still feel a strong need for the password we can discuss it further, but what I think would be a better route is to do some more recruiting for Hippiedom and get a few more endorsements, if I had like 18 or 20, it be impossible for us to be raided.
On that note if anyone has yet to endorse me please do so! I know we have more than 14 wa in Hippiedom.
I will naturally keep an eye out, now that I have internet again I will be able to be on for the majority of updates.

Embassies with NationStates? WTF??
Given that the region NationStates founder Mikeswill is a duplicitous raider and a member of the notorious invader group DEN, as well as the founder of the invader hideout region Ile de France, I can't fathom why a region of upstanding, freedom-loving, bong-hittin' hippies would want to establish foreign relations with region NationStates.
Is region Hippiedom really what is portrays itself to be, or something else? Now I'm worried. Yo, John; any explanation for this?
Bob jmo8k
1 year 11 days ago
I know you didn't ask me, but Mike also hosts a number of regions free from war and his raiding antics, like Nation States, and your aforementioned region is one of the biggest proponents of the hippie lifestyle in the entire game. I see it perfectly fit to be allied with this region.
Any activities he conducts under other profiles should be considered an act from a separate nation and should not influence the decision to ally with a good region.
The Fearless Federation of Hungry Freaks

Wow. Just wow. So I guess you'll be welcoming the raiders when they do here what they did to Anarchy. But then, Hippiedom might be over 50% informants and raider spies right now. Kind of like what the FBI is doing to OWS.
The John Lennon Utopia of Strawberrry Fields
1 year 11 days ago
@hungry Freaks, I didn't really see it like that. Mikeswill's role as a delegate is independent of this role with his other nation Highlander. Currently at vote as i'm sure you know is a proposal to remove Mikeswill commendation. I saw this as an attack on someone who has carried the region Nationstates, made it what it is today, I think his dedication to the region is both impressive and worthy of his commendation. So because of my support, Mikeswill proposed constructing embassies.
As for his raiding ties, under a different name he had associations with Den and founded Ile de France, but his WA nation was delegate that entire time so he never actually raided.
I don't think what he did as Highlander reflects the region Nationstates as a whole, Nationstates tries to maintain a neutral stance.
Now when is comes to managing embassies, the best way to recruit for Hippiedom is to spread word of Hippiedom, so I view making an embassy with a large well known region as a plus, just like making an embassy with a feeder or sinker.
I am open to everyone's input, either post here or you can tg me. If people are strongly against I will withdraw the embassy, I didn't think it was a big deal.
The Fearless Federation of Hungry Freaks
1 year 11 days ago
OK, we'll have to agree to disagree. As a long-time observer of raider behavior, and of how Highlander 1 is treated by his fellow raiders and the hate and contempt that Highlander demonstrates toward invaded regions and their natives, I won't pretend to understand your decision. Cuz I don't. What I can see is Hippiedom being on the raider hit-list; whether establishing an embassy with Hippiedom is part of a strategy to lull you into a false sense of security or whether you yourself are a raider sleeper will remain to be seen. Au revoir.
The John Lennon Utopia of Strawberrry Fields

Come on, >_<, merely accepting to make an embassy with the region Nationstates doesn't mean I plan to "be welcoming the raiders when they do here what they did to Anarchy".
And a note on Anarchy's situation, I have been talking with my contacts to try and resolve it, spoke with their ex-delegate Seeya and some other natives. It be a shame for one of the oldest classic NS regions to die like that. I can assure you nothing like that will happen here, I get regular intel and am well informed, I am in touch with people who would come to our aid should we ever be raided. I've been working to increase my endorsement count, now 20, and to keep Hippiedom safe.

My WA nation is now engaged in defense operations abroad, but when ops are over I will bring it here and ID it to you, and endorse you, John.

Have you considered refounding the region?
Password-protect the region. Then let all the natives go to a temporary beta-region (which you have founded by a trusted deputy or a puppet). Then decrease the number of natives by having the ones with big endorsement counts go over to the beta-region one by one. The WA delegate is the last one to do so: he should leave only JUST BEFORE new WA reports are made up, so the region is empty for only a few minutes before ceasing to exist.
Any slightly inactive natives still present at that time can be ejected - after you send them an explanatory telegram + invitation to join the new refounded region.
Have the region recreated by an active founder - be it the former WA delegate or a puppet of which the password can be shared by WA delegate and one other (in case either becomes inactive).
Then allow the beta-region to empty inself into the new region.
The John Lennon Utopia of Strawberrry Fields
1 year 10 days ago
Well i'd prefer to avoid refounding the region. It would be a rather lengthy and time consuming process, having everyone move and move back, and we would loose alot of nations in the process, probably close to have or more, plus we'd no longer have "high" regional power, lots of issues with the large number of embassies we have, I just don't think the region would quit be the same after. And refounding comes with the risk of having someone else refound the region before the intended person did. It be the worse to have some raider or smartly pants swoop in and ruin everything worse than any raid could.
Plus we have so far never been raided, it would be rather difficult for us to be raided as I now hold 20 endorsements, so they'd need 22 online at update to pull off. Most of the time smaller regions get raided since the raiders only have have like 3 or 4 WA online during the update, and in more extreme cases maybe close to 15, so it would be really difficult to pull off. And if it was pulled off, they wouldn't have enough influence to immediately boot anyone here with a high endorsements count, so it would only take a few defenders to come in an endorse me or someone with a high endorsements to re-pass the invader.
What are other people's thoughts on it? I could see maybe resorting to refounding down the line if raids became a real problem or if the region was dying and small in size.
And if someone was to refound, I'd wana see if Hard Line Commies wants to. He is still kicking around though not very active, he is also the founder of our sister region Communist Beach as some of you may know, and his Communist Beach nation aka the founder came back about a week ago I sent him a tg, but he hasn't logged on since coming back. But when I last talked to him it didn't sound like he wanted Hippiedom to be refounded, I will mention the idea to him next time I get ahold of him.

Hails cool people of Hippiedom!
Sorry for the late input - I think it was a mistake to withdraw the embassy. To be fair, I do not have knowledge of the raids that were occurring, or of the identities of those involved - but do think that extending our support would be more beneficial than not - meaning I agree with the benefits outlined by Strawberry Fields.
In a historic real-world sense, I feel strongly that it is a good idea to have embassies with all regions - even if some members consider these "enemies" or "opponents" of our ideals. It is specifically these regions we should be reaching out to and building diplomatic ties.
Lastly, from a security stand-point, from what I understand of the endorsements - we have multiple members with relatively high number of endorsements - so we are somewhat protected by our members in the event of an invasion. I haven't been playing long - so I could very well be totally off-base with my observations.
Cheers!

Hi there !
Due to our government lacks of assiduity, (and a long vacation using the social funds), our nation fell in oblivion.
With a lot of citizen rebellion and a little motivation (guns, among others), our politicals came to an arrangment.
Anyways, we are back in Hippiedom, and (at least for the most of us) we are happy with that.

Yes. 420 and Earth Day all in one week.

Blame Pelosi. She put the kabash on investigation of the Bush Administration 2 years before Obama could do anything about it. Don't get me wrong, Obama should have acted differently, but Pelosi could have assured that the issue was well on it's way to being resolved if she hadn't stopped house committees from taking action. Conyers (House Judiciary Committee) wanted to act. Blame Pelosi...

Re: Nixon. It is important to realize he was a product of the times. Nixons bad rap had little to do with stealing money from the DNC, and more to do with his history of red baiting and abuses of power to silence his critics, as well as the War in Vietnam, these were the issues that focus
ed energy against Nixon.
But it must be remembered that these things were much worse at the time then they woukd seem today. Nixon was President at a time when both Republicans and Democrats shared a "liberal consensus" on social programs.Nixon created the EPA, and took the U.s. off the gold standard. Ford created the Food Stamp Program. Indeed when Reagan took office most of the programs he curtailed or abolished were Nixon era programs. The right has moved very far to the right. Most those who support Republican Party today would despise a President who advocated Nixon social policy as being a liberal.
That being said let's not forget used the IRS to go after political opponents, illegally spied on dissidents, bombed Cambodia on Christmas even though we were not even at war with them and called the students who protested against it bums the week they were shot at Kent State. He deserved to be impeached, but the actions committed by Bush were far worse. Unfortunately Nancy Pelosi was a gutless fool, who did not take her oath to uphold the constitution as seriously as the the House of Representatives did in 1975.

Cannajuana I read the piece. Are these the portents foretold by Revelations? Is this the heralding of the end of days?
Transportable pipeline technology could harness a 45 day storm that is disaster for one community, by transporting storm water hundreds of miles away to communities that need it. Re-forestation and water permeable pavement would also avert natural disasters and improve the environment. Government may lack the competence to do it, but we should still demand it.
When failure of electric grids caused black outs throughout Northern California a follow up study confirmed that homes in some communities continued to have electricity -- because they had solar electric systems installed. If all else fails have on hand blankets, matches a stash of good weed and a two week supply of emergency food and water.

That solution is possible, but unfortunately these types of catastrophic events are the last thing on any government agenda. Preventative measures are never taken. We always wait until disaster has passed before we realize what we could have done.

Spelling of socialism or socialzim must be in accord with the socialist principle: From each according to their ability, to each according to their needs.
If Flower child nation needs to spell it with a "z" or is spelling it to the best of his or her ability then that should suffice. Similarly, if The Holy Orange Vaticanate of Orange Pomander needs to spell it according to the formula set forth by the ruling class that nation may do so as well.

But alas I was too liberal on some issues and since then they've been calling me things like Democratic Socialist, Scandinavian Liberal Paradise and Liberal Democratic Socialist. I keep trying to change it back to Iron Fisted Socialist, but I can not seem to get them to say that. Perhaps if they had an issue that allowed me to imprison all corporate bosses

Well, Magneto is cast in a rather sympathetic light. They also introduced some characters which are the contemporaries of Cyclops like Emma Frost, for example, but they focused mostly on the friendship between Charles and Erik.

My understanding in the comic book continuity, Mystique was born not later than the 19th century (and is a lesbian), Havok is Cyclop's brother (not his father), Emma Frost is a contemporary of Xavier (although the diamond skin came along long after I stopped reading).

Hey guys, new to the region. been here before with a few different nations that i just lost track of, and then forgot.
Holy Ornage, LSD usually comes as a liquid or on blotter paper which is soaked in liquid LSD. It can also be taken as a pill. Only taken it once before but it wasn't a full hit, looking forward to that next time i take it. I smoke pot most days and have done coke and pills before, which doesn't even include my prescription of prozac i've been taking on and off for a couple of years. Was always interested in doing shrooms, Strawberry Fields, what was the trip like?
peace and fairy cakes
The John Lennon Utopia of Strawberrry Fields

Yea LSD is normally either like a tissue-paper or gel tabs, or liquid.
I did 2 Gel tabs for my first trip it was awesome, I recommend doing atleast 2 for the full effect. It was my first year of college, I would have considered my self a moderate before, but by the end I was a social anarchist Hippy.
Actually the first time I did acid was when I was really introduced to the Beatles, before this I never had really listened to the Beatles. There was four of us, and we spent all night smokin' and listening to the Beatles. I watched the Yellow Submarine for the first time. Which I highly recommend doing if any of you ever trip. We did it at night and in the morning when we were coming down(lasts 12hrs or more) we went to this lake and watched the sun rise. Was one of the top experiences of my life, have loved the Beatles ever since. Shortly after I made this nation and joined Hippiedom
My 2nd trip was a week later on 4/20, that was a blast. Like 15 of my college buddies go to this cabin(modern one) in the woods. Everyone had alot of weed, I had an ounce of green myself. Did two gel tabs again stayed up for like 36hrs all of 4/20 smokin' tons of bud.
I tripped a third time a year later with this girl I know. And I haven't tripped since then, though i'd like to if I could find it. <_<

We're inviting your region to send a representative to the festival, starting the 18th and running through the weekend, to celebrate with us. They can come for the whole thing or just stay a little while and leave when they want.

Hurray I have internet again!
Yes me and my two Siamese cats are fine, thanxs for your concern. It was just taking awhile to get everything up and running again, electricity, hot/drinkable water, internet, etc. But that should no longer be an issue, finally.
As for passwording the region, i'd like to avoid doing that. In my experience I find that in our case the password could do more harm than good. It would restrict new nations from moving in causing our population to decrease, and to be honest we are almost always under threat of being raided, so the password would have to stay up all the time to prevent being raided.
I have friends in the FRA and other defender groups who keep me up to date on intel relating to possible raids on us, and can provide assistance if we where to get raided.
Which to actually pull off a raid on us would be rather difficult because since I have 13 endorsements, they'd need 15 WA (1 wa to be endorsed 13 to match me and 1 more to put them ahead).
Most of the time smaller regions get raided since the raiders only have have like 3 or 4 WA online during the update, and in more extreme cases maybe close to 10, so 15 would be really difficult to pull off. And if it was pulled off, they wouldn't have enough influence to immediately boot anyone here with a high endorsements count, so it would only take a few defenders to come in an endorse me or someone with a high endorsements to re-pass the invader.
If people still feel a strong need for the password we can discuss it further, but what I think would be a better route is to do some more recruiting for Hippiedom and get a few more endorsements, if I had like 18 or 20, it be impossible for us to be raided.
On that note if anyone has yet to endorse me please do so! I know we have more than 14 wa in Hippiedom.
I will naturally keep an eye out, now that I have internet again I will be able to be on for the majority of updates.

Embassies with NationStates? WTF??
Given that the region NationStates founder Mikeswill is a duplicitous raider and a member of the notorious invader group DEN, as well as the founder of the invader hideout region Ile de France, I can't fathom why a region of upstanding, freedom-loving, bong-hittin' hippies would want to establish foreign relations with region NationStates.
Is region Hippiedom really what is portrays itself to be, or something else? Now I'm worried. Yo, John; any explanation for this?
Bob jmo8k
1 year 11 days ago
I know you didn't ask me, but Mike also hosts a number of regions free from war and his raiding antics, like Nation States, and your aforementioned region is one of the biggest proponents of the hippie lifestyle in the entire game. I see it perfectly fit to be allied with this region.
Any activities he conducts under other profiles should be considered an act from a separate nation and should not influence the decision to ally with a good region.
The Fearless Federation of Hungry Freaks

Wow. Just wow. So I guess you'll be welcoming the raiders when they do here what they did to Anarchy. But then, Hippiedom might be over 50% informants and raider spies right now. Kind of like what the FBI is doing to OWS.
The John Lennon Utopia of Strawberrry Fields
1 year 11 days ago
@hungry Freaks, I didn't really see it like that. Mikeswill's role as a delegate is independent of this role with his other nation Highlander. Currently at vote as i'm sure you know is a proposal to remove Mikeswill commendation. I saw this as an attack on someone who has carried the region Nationstates, made it what it is today, I think his dedication to the region is both impressive and worthy of his commendation. So because of my support, Mikeswill proposed constructing embassies.
As for his raiding ties, under a different name he had associations with Den and founded Ile de France, but his WA nation was delegate that entire time so he never actually raided.
I don't think what he did as Highlander reflects the region Nationstates as a whole, Nationstates tries to maintain a neutral stance.
Now when is comes to managing embassies, the best way to recruit for Hippiedom is to spread word of Hippiedom, so I view making an embassy with a large well known region as a plus, just like making an embassy with a feeder or sinker.
I am open to everyone's input, either post here or you can tg me. If people are strongly against I will withdraw the embassy, I didn't think it was a big deal.
The Fearless Federation of Hungry Freaks
1 year 11 days ago
OK, we'll have to agree to disagree. As a long-time observer of raider behavior, and of how Highlander 1 is treated by his fellow raiders and the hate and contempt that Highlander demonstrates toward invaded regions and their natives, I won't pretend to understand your decision. Cuz I don't. What I can see is Hippiedom being on the raider hit-list; whether establishing an embassy with Hippiedom is part of a strategy to lull you into a false sense of security or whether you yourself are a raider sleeper will remain to be seen. Au revoir.
The John Lennon Utopia of Strawberrry Fields

Come on, >_<, merely accepting to make an embassy with the region Nationstates doesn't mean I plan to "be welcoming the raiders when they do here what they did to Anarchy".
And a note on Anarchy's situation, I have been talking with my contacts to try and resolve it, spoke with their ex-delegate Seeya and some other natives. It be a shame for one of the oldest classic NS regions to die like that. I can assure you nothing like that will happen here, I get regular intel and am well informed, I am in touch with people who would come to our aid should we ever be raided. I've been working to increase my endorsement count, now 20, and to keep Hippiedom safe.

My WA nation is now engaged in defense operations abroad, but when ops are over I will bring it here and ID it to you, and endorse you, John.

Have you considered refounding the region?
Password-protect the region. Then let all the natives go to a temporary beta-region (which you have founded by a trusted deputy or a puppet). Then decrease the number of natives by having the ones with big endorsement counts go over to the beta-region one by one. The WA delegate is the last one to do so: he should leave only JUST BEFORE new WA reports are made up, so the region is empty for only a few minutes before ceasing to exist.
Any slightly inactive natives still present at that time can be ejected - after you send them an explanatory telegram + invitation to join the new refounded region.
Have the region recreated by an active founder - be it the former WA delegate or a puppet of which the password can be shared by WA delegate and one other (in case either becomes inactive).
Then allow the beta-region to empty inself into the new region.
The John Lennon Utopia of Strawberrry Fields
1 year 10 days ago
Well i'd prefer to avoid refounding the region. It would be a rather lengthy and time consuming process, having everyone move and move back, and we would loose alot of nations in the process, probably close to have or more, plus we'd no longer have "high" regional power, lots of issues with the large number of embassies we have, I just don't think the region would quit be the same after. And refounding comes with the risk of having someone else refound the region before the intended person did. It be the worse to have some raider or smartly pants swoop in and ruin everything worse than any raid could.
Plus we have so far never been raided, it would be rather difficult for us to be raided as I now hold 20 endorsements, so they'd need 22 online at update to pull off. Most of the time smaller regions get raided since the raiders only have have like 3 or 4 WA online during the update, and in more extreme cases maybe close to 15, so it would be really difficult to pull off. And if it was pulled off, they wouldn't have enough influence to immediately boot anyone here with a high endorsements count, so it would only take a few defenders to come in an endorse me or someone with a high endorsements to re-pass the invader.
What are other people's thoughts on it? I could see maybe resorting to refounding down the line if raids became a real problem or if the region was dying and small in size.
And if someone was to refound, I'd wana see if Hard Line Commies wants to. He is still kicking around though not very active, he is also the founder of our sister region Communist Beach as some of you may know, and his Communist Beach nation aka the founder came back about a week ago I sent him a tg, but he hasn't logged on since coming back. But when I last talked to him it didn't sound like he wanted Hippiedom to be refounded, I will mention the idea to him next time I get ahold of him.

Hails cool people of Hippiedom!
Sorry for the late input - I think it was a mistake to withdraw the embassy. To be fair, I do not have knowledge of the raids that were occurring, or of the identities of those involved - but do think that extending our support would be more beneficial than not - meaning I agree with the benefits outlined by Strawberry Fields.
In a historic real-world sense, I feel strongly that it is a good idea to have embassies with all regions - even if some members consider these "enemies" or "opponents" of our ideals. It is specifically these regions we should be reaching out to and building diplomatic ties.
Lastly, from a security stand-point, from what I understand of the endorsements - we have multiple members with relatively high number of endorsements - so we are somewhat protected by our members in the event of an invasion. I haven't been playing long - so I could very well be totally off-base with my observations.
Cheers!
