Heads up

Post by Nick Foghorn Leghorn »

Due to the lack of any meaningful activity, and the apparent inability to keep it's affairs in order (votes in the Senate weeks past their closing date still open), the Dinarchy of Antica has been labeled <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-size:large;">DEFUNCT</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> by a committee of the Definitive Micronational Index.

Aww, and I was so much looking forward to the Index to maintain its neutrality... <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rolleyes --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/eyes.gif ALT=":rolleyes"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

Not meaning to be overly cynical but isn't the Definitive Micronational Index your baby? No unfortunately it would set a bad precedent to delete the Dinarchy, if we did that to them we'd have to do it to Mayo and Charlotta and Attera, and if we did it to Attera we'd be in a world of pain.<br>
<br>
So thank you but I'm sure the management would prefer to sit on this a month or two before reaching any decision.

yes, it is slightly biased. But the ruling wasn't without grounds.<br>
<br>
And I urge the MCS to make up their own mind on the matter. This is just a heads-up.

" yes, it is slightly biased. But the ruling wasn't without grounds."<br>
<br>
"slightly"? Come on, you're a well-known Antican Republican, and you think that it is only "slightly" biased? <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :P --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/tongue.gif ALT=":P"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> It's akin to me declaring the GC dead, no matter how much of it may be true - even if it is true, it's a matter of the person announcing it being <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>me</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->. (Once again, I will state that my position in the conflict is neutral - I really don't mean to offend you, just making a point)<br>
<br>
If you still think there is bias in my statements, I will stop making statements, for I do not mean a bias at all.<br>
<br>
I agree with Ardishir's statement. ...wait, what? <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :eek --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/eek.gif ALT=":eek"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

Well it <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>is</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> fundamentally unable to keep things running. The website still has ME on the main page cited as a Dinarch... it's been almost 2 weeks.<br>
<br>
Legislation in the Dinarchy's Senate is all supposed to have closed, but at the moment none of them have been closed and filed.<br>
<br>
Nothing's been happening there except arguments in the Bar and the Barracks, which were half driven by Olorix, Foghorn, and I visiting.

I would just like to point out, for the record, that the Dinarchy has had more posts in the last week, and has a more recent last update date on its website, than the Kingdom of Babkha, or, for that matter, the Grand Commonwealth itself. I await seeing those removed also.<br>
<br>
I would also like to point out to Foghorn that his decision will lower the reputation of his index at exactly the time when rumor has it the neo-Babkhans are working on a competing project, and that as a fan of it I am a bit disappointed in him.

Almost all of the activity on the boards has been arguments with Republican Anticans. The rest has been on those secret fora, I'm guessing.<br>
<br>
As for the website... when I was around, we kept that thing at least generally updated. We got the Chancellor right, we got the DINARCHS right... we got the legislation on there fairly quickly...

But it's too much fun to antagonize Delphi. Only now are we being discouraged because he's been banning us.

Activity is activity, no matter if it is the citizens or noncitizens posting in it.

True. Besides, with us being banned at will, it'll quickly die down.<br>
<br>
Oh, and Foghorn... yeah... I have to agree... a little ridiculous right now. Maybe a week of the Dinarchy being in a dead state consistently, without even us visiting and posting... then it'd be more justified.

Political communities can survive without being neurotically obsessed with activity (most of which is inane and unworthy of note in any event).<br>
