I disagree.

Tiny nations? Depends on how long they have been tiny. If they are 90+ days and tiny then it's their own lazy fault for being so.

New nations need to learn how to grow and actually become part of the alliances they join. You help your alliance early in your nation's life by selling tech to the larger nations. Later after you've grown you help small nations by doing what was done for you.

You help your alliance by managing your nation wisely.

Small nations can grow and not be tiny useless nations. They have to help themselves and not only extend their hands to take. Earn your keep.

Small nations are essential for larger nations to grow, so no, they don't ignore them.

but they use the tiny nations for tech

they should do more than just help them to help themselves

no recruiting on my blog

So you want something for nothing? It's not like you don't make profit from tech deals...

in my experiance friend if you join a very small new alliance they will be so desperate for members and activity that you may end up very highly valued completely disregarding your size. That style of alliance will also fast track you as a government member if your interested. Try looking for new AA's with under say 20 members... this isn't to say RoK wouldn't love to have you but i do know generally what your reffering to...you want to be part of it all and feel vitally needed etc.

Good luck

No, nobody ignores small nations. Small nations are useless to an alliance, except for tech farms. A lot of alliances try to push them into nuclear range as soon as possible. I know VE, NpO and IRON put a lot of effort in their small ones, and I'm sure most others do too.

Alliances aren't charity cases, though. They don't just help a weak nation for nothing. Tech deals are give both of them benefit. They'll help you in exchange for something, and that's always a tech deal.

What makes you think alliances ignore small nations?

There are quite a few alliances that have programs to help the small nations grow and to teach them the ins and outs of Planet Bob. Tech selling is part of that though. The alliances help you but you have to do your part to help too. Once you get to a certain size most alliances help turn you into a buyer rather than a seller.

Now if you mean ignoring by not listening to their opinions on things again there are plenty of alliances out there that listen to any members opinion. You just have to work to find the right community.

Oh, another one of them clown's who doesn't listen to reason, fails to understand multiple guides and all advice given and refuses to tech deal? Yeah, you should create an alliance for all of you.

Try listening to what you're told and you might find that within quite a short amount of time, you're not a small nation.

We don't need any more alliances.

You're really engaging. Good job.

Oh snap, you recruiters got told.

Small nations are the life blood of any alliance, from a technical game pov (tech sellers) and the functions of an alliance itself. There is always something that needs to be done in an alliance. Smaller nations can play a big role in Ghost Busting, since alliances rarely have nations stay small enough to eject ghosts. Showing activity and interest will get you noticed, no matter how big of an alliance you are in.

It's been my experience that it's not the size of the nation, but the ruler that runs it.

I like your style. You should totally join VE.

wat did i say about recruiting

i am in my first war and i am winning but my alliance didn't even response when i asked for help THATS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT

That's because you initiated the war. You start the war, it's your problem.

Also, stop telling people to not recruit. If you start a blog entry about alliances, you should expect a few people to post offers.
