Farewell Speech + Rough History
According to Jolt I joined in mid 2006, so I haven’t been in NS that long. The first region I was in was Catlandatopia, but I lost interest there and moved onto Trans Atlantice region that I found via Jolt. There I became the UN Delegate and our forum managed to get 6 or so active members, and I seem to remember only missing a few resolutions. It rose to about 40 nations, and then with the founder and others we decided to merge into the Imperial Federation region, I fell out with them as their UN Delegate was totally inactive and they wouldn’t endorse me into the position. Plus the UN nation support I used to have died. I took part in the CIR Alliance that was made up of Europeia, Concosia, Imperial Federation and others.
Later on I moved to The Praetorian Empire that was founded by the nation Sergeant General, and included NS players such as Brommanikia (called Khabro then) and Agnovilan, who I met and eventually ran the Senate for. However after a merger with a group of nations I made the mistake of giving the leader of the merging nations (Emperor Addarow) admin power in the forum because at the time he seemed trustworthy. He stole the passwords of the other admins, and when I reduced him to moderator status because he was conducting suspicious activity he deleted the forum using other admin accounts. Catlandatopia managed to give the forum back, but the damage was done and we made a new forum.
Eventually things broke down politically and I disagreed with how Agnovilan and Khabro (Brommanikia) and Sergeant General wanted to run the region. Particularly dissolving some of the Senates power and making judges. I proposed a merger with 01 ERE Alliance, which was bigger (100+ nations to 70+ nations) and more active (two more forum members) than The Praetorian Empire at the time. It failed and I ended up calling Agnovilan, Khabro (Brommanikia) and Sergeant General dictatorial which I believed at the time then left to 01 ERE region.
In 01 ERE region a new constitution was being proposed, as well as a merger idea with a 50 nation or so region eventually both discussions became bogged down and the merger region childishly rejected the merger proposal. Their leader ran off to 10k islands and died into obscurity, his region died with him. Byzantine Glory (the leader of the region) made a new forum, which I later did the cosmetic surgery for to make it look nicer. However the constitution went ahead and I managed to get one together with help from the Judge Brettonia Enforcers.
Eventually Byzantine Glory made puppet nations with his friend Commemnus in 01 ERE region in order to “boost activity in the elections”, later I discovered this and provided evidence of several members per IP, this lead to the Judges Brettonia Enforcers and Novellus Veii resigning and leaving in disgust. I stayed however in 01 ERE.
01 ERE region eventually it was decided between Byzantine Glory, Commemnus and me should be renamed 01 ERE Alliance and that a sort of alliance of several nationstates regions with Roman and Greek ideas. In time the Alliance expanded to include several player created regions such as Greece and Empire of the Romans and several others.
Also during my time in 01 ERE region it was part of the A D N : D S A which I eventually joined, I only took part in one defence I can remember there though. The biggest event I can remember was to do with The Last Kingdom (which had seceded from The Praetorian Empire at this time as Brommanikia and Agnovilan had grown sick of the founder Sergeant General. TLK invaded the region Athens which was liberated by the A D N : D S A and some UN nations from 01 ERE Alliance. It eventually became a member region of the Alliance. Eventually the A D N : D S A ended of course as the end titles were sent out.
Later on I negotiated the Council of Narnia region (which had 40 to 50 nations at the time) to join the Alliance, it agreed and the Alliance expanded further. However by this point I was growing tired of the Alliance as activity was low in 01 ERE Alliance by this time, I was already up to 1300 or so posts on the forum and there were only 3 or so members including me in the forum.
Brommanikia offered for me to come to The Last Kingdom via telegram, which I accepted and eventually I became the Foreign Minister. However tensions between the Alliance and The Last Kingdom increased as Byzantine Glory intruded into TLK affairs, this urged me to start a propaganda campaign against 01 ERE Alliance. This was through The Last Kingdom Times, threats and personal insults to Byzantine Glory and other members of the 01 ERE Alliance.
In The Last Kingdom the Chancellor Rykkland proposed controversial new changes to the government, in an attempt to limit the power of the King and make the region more democratic. This lead to a fall out between Rykkland and Brommanikia (as well as his political allies Agnovilan and Hadisthe). Rykkland left and founded his own region Kodiak, a month or so afterwards Agnovilan announced that Brommanikia was dead and The Last Kingdom mourned. Rykkland urged by Hadisthe and others (including me) eventually returned to The Last Kingdom. I was also quite active on the forum and to this day I think I have 1200 posts there.
At the same time I was in The Last Kingdom I joined Lazarus and started to know people there (and spam a lot) and have a lot of fun. I went from about 10 posts or so to 915 or so which wasn’t that bad.
Then a month or so ago when I had an MSN conversation with Rykkland I learned Brom was alive
(9:35 p.m.) me: Well I am thinking of new ways to remember Brom
(9:36 p.m.) me: for recruitment,etc.
(9:36 p.m.) me: and to remove the blanket of misery surrounding him
(9:36 p.m.) Rykkland: I'd rather not
(9:37 p.m.) me: Well anyway my plan is to make him something positive
(9:37 p.m.) me: like an eternal flame
(9:37 p.m.) Rykkland: you can't make a liar something positive
(9:37 p.m.) me: yes you can
(9:37 p.m.) Rykkland: not when he isn't really dead
(9:37 p.m.) me: by remembering him in the things he was good at
(9:37 p.m.) me: I am thinking of Sir Edmund Drake here
(9:38 p.m.) me: he had a Bell that was supposed to ring whenever England was threatened again
(9:38 p.m.) me: as the story goes it rang in WW1 and WW2
(9:38 p.m.) me: I have made a vote topic on it anyway
(9:39 p.m.) me: if you feel he is a liar, you can vote demon
(9:39 p.m.) Rykkland: you know he isn't dead right?
After that point I was in total disgust for Brom, and then of course the news spread (go to Romenoch’s news forum if you want to learn what happened). Anyway I got know people in the Neo Genesis Movement for a month or so (such as the Queen, Island Union, Conservative States, and many others).
I had a good time in Trans Atlantice, The Praetorian Empire, 01 ERE Alliance, The Last Kingdom and Lazarus when I had the energy it’s a shame I had to leave but real life is more important and I don’t really see the point continuing on here any further (spamming just can’t interest me anymore, though MSN conversations still do).
As for the people I meet some people grow to like me like Lazarus and the Neo Genesis Movement. Some think I am plain annoying and rude like Catlandatopia. Finally some just distrust me like The Last Kingdom. Though I am not worried, if you can’t take the heat get out of the fire. Thanks for giving me a fun time, and best hopes for the future. If I find energy I could join NS2.
