  2. Picked the wrong micro

    in Alliance Announcements (IC)

    Posted

    I told myself I would not post in this here thread.

    I said :"Self. Dont do it."

    But when do I ever listen to my own advice? Never would be about right.

    I rarely, if ever, post on these boards. Like my alliance, THC, i keep to myself most of the time. But seeing as this topic is about my little group of rednecks and hillbillies, i figure why not throw in my 2 cents.

    . I looked at this situation as an open act of aggression toward THC. Sure it was a botched tech raid, but to us, it was more than that. It was a micro alliance tech raiding ,and declaring wars on other micros and never getting hit back. 
     Sure, we coulda done what most others do and ask them to  "pwease stop that, I wub my pixels. pinky pwomise you wont do it again."   In fact, that is what we (micro alliance leaders)have been doing for years and it is always the same ol crap, only the names of the micros change.

     I have nothing against TIE. In fact, I was rather pleased that we had a reason to break the monotony. We were looking forward to having a war with someone of equal size and strength. As a micro-alliance, we are normally delegated to ankle-biting and fighting against insurmountable odds. 

     

    The way I see it, If a 10 member micro alliance raids another 10 member micro and  the latter defend themselves, there is no reason for any outside involvement.

    I guess my main issue with this is simple. I feel that regardless of the size, an alliance is a sovereign group capable of making decisions and doing things as they see fit. And also capable of facing the consequences of their actions as well. If things were reversed, i would stand by my alliance member no matter if he was wrong, and I would fight the good fight. The fact that any protectors were involved at all was surprising to me.


    I think there may have been some over-reacting.

    But I digress.

    Peace has been declared and all is good in my small little corner of the world,  void of micro drama. :)

    There are a lot of alliances out there. Some with super cool themes, some with lots of tradition. Most offer the same things: protection, aid, guidance.

    Here at The Hillbilly Coalition (THC), we offer you the same things plus something a little different. A chance to be part of something that is being built from the ground up the old school way, one nation at a time.

    While we  dont have the long tradition or a cool theme, we do have one thing no one else has. Stoner hillbillies. (not sure if thats a good thing).

    Here at THC your voice will be heard. You are more than a number. 

     

    We have an active community and welcome everyone to come hang out, sit a spell, take your shoes off.. We have one rule... " Pass to the left, for the love of Pete!"

     

    Plus we have super exciting fun games such as "pin the tail on the possum" and "ring around the outhouse" and our favorite: "Drink moonshine and smoke wacky tobacky until you fall asleep".

     

    So if you are in the market for a new alliance, you should come check us out.

  8. Hillbilly Declaration: "We exist, Y'all."

    in Alliance Announcements (IC)

    Posted · Edited by rattlehead

    Howdy and welcome to the first of a one-part series on the overlooked but serious issue affecting all of Planet Bob. Of course I am referring to the invasion of those beard wearing, shotgun wielding, moonshine guzzling, lawn killing hillbillies..
    I must admit that, at first, these toothless hooligans seem like horrible neighbors. With the late night hootenannies, 2 day barn burners and generally wacky shenanigans. Dogs barking all night and chickens cackling all day, I can see why many may cringe when they arrive.
    But just one sip of that good ol moonshine and a couple of puffs on grandpappys corncob pipe and you will see that even though they are horrible neighbors, they know how to have a good time.
    So I conclude this series with an announcement that may or may not be good news for the planet. It is certainly not good for real estate value.

    The rednecks, country bumbkins and hillbillies have decided that enough is enough and have formed an alliance. Over a late night bonfire with Bud Weiser, Mr J. Daniels and Mary Jane as witness, The Hillbilly Coalition now exists.

    Can I get a Yee-Haw!?

    Y'all can come for a visit at our forums http://cnhillbillies.forumotion.com/ or on IRC at #cn-THC.

    Official charter of The Hillbilly Coalition

     


    Preamble: On this day, September 1st 2016, I proudly announce the creation The Hillbilly Coalition (THC), a CyberNations alliance dedicated to the growth and defense of member nations. 

    Article I: Membership

    Any nation seeking admission into THC can apply on our official forums (cnhillbillies.forumotion.com) or by private message on CyberNations. All applications will be considered and membership granted on a case by case basis. 

    Article II: Government

    The government of THC shall be lead by a President and Vice President. 

    President: Shall oversee the direction of the alliance. The Presidents' first priority is to guide and protect the member nations by upholding the THC charter. The Presidents votes/decisions shall be made with complete transparency to all members. The President has the final say in all matters concerning the alliance. The President shall appoint a Vice President and approve of all cabinet members appointed by the VP. 

    Vice President: Appointed by the President, the VP shall oversee the day to day operations and step in when and if the President is unavailable. The VP is 2nd in command and the final authority on all charter amendments. No changes can be made to the charter without approval by the VP. The VP also appoints Department Heads (with President approval) as needed to run the alliance and is Chairman of the Coalition Council.

    Coalition Council: Council members to be initially appointed by the Vice President, who will hold the Chair position. This 5 member council will meet and discuss alliance policies, charter amendments, and grievances. Members of the Council do not have to be Department Heads or members of government but any discussion should include the heads of the respective department being discussed. The council will hear all grievances and impeachments, with a recommended action being forwarded to the President. Charter amendments have to be approved by the Chairman (VP) and posted for member discussion/Presidential input before being implemented. Replacement or removal of Council members shall be done by Coalition vote, the Chair holding the tie-breaker if needed.

    Department Heads: Appointed by The Vice President, the Department Heads shall be responsible for the direction and organization of their respective departments. 

    Replacement of Department Heads by either resignation or removal shall be done by the VP with Presidential approval.

    Any member nation of THC that is attacked unprovoked shall be defended using any means necessary.
    All offensive wars must be approved by the Defense Department and/or the President or Vice President.

    Article IV: Multis

    Due to the recent foreign aid abuse on CN, verifying each nation is required. Applicants must register on our official forums before being approved for membership . Applicants can request a waiver on this requirement by private messaging the President or Vice President for other means of nation verification. 

    Article V: General Rules

    All member nations must agree to abide by the THC Charter.

    Anti-Spy Law: Spying in any form is completely prohibited.

    All charter revisions shall be posted for discussion by all members 24 hours prior to the amendment taking effect.

    Notice of resignation of membership should be given to the President and/or VP at least 48 hours prior. All loans, alliance aid and tech deals should be paid in full before resigning.

    Impeachment proceedings of any government member shall go through the Coalition Council with their recommendation made to the President. All involved parties will be heard and decision made by the President. Involved nations shall be given an oppurtunity to appeal the decision.

    Greivances and complaints shall be submitted to the President or Vice President and will be resolved by the Coalition Council involving a meeting of all involved parties and the final decision made by the President.

    Any grievance or complaint should be sent via private message (on CN or the forums) to the President, Vice president, any member of the Coalition Council, or any combination thereof.

    The expulsion of a member nation shall be voted on by the Coalition Council and approved by the President or VP. The decision and reason will be made known. Affected member nations shall be given an oppurtunity to appeal the decision.
