    Seriously...

    By ChairmanHal,

    Banning people from Cyber Nations for forums violations at this stage of the game is about like drilling holes in the bottom of a boat that's already taking on water.
    If you want to make the "rules are the rules" argument, please explain how banning your most active players (people who are inactive don't get players ratting them out for forum violations) increases interest and activity in the game and how it increases the number of players.
    I grant you that people who do really, really stupid things like posting porn images or real life phone numbers of people should probably get banned from the forums and the game. But to delete nations and ban people for what amounts to a collection of ticky-tack violations? Really?
    Something has to change.

    Mushroom Kingdom Retirement Home as of 10/10/13
    Nations on the AA: 50
    Nations counted as members: 46
    Mushqaeda (MK affiliated): 15
    Now at TOP: 15
    Now at DBDC: 12
    FYI: Mushroom Kingdom had 110 nations on its AA one month ago, 106 nations on 9/16/13.
    And just because...
    Doom Squad (DBDC Affiliated): 11 (oh and it would be helpful to your other alliance mates if you weren't so blatant about your aid to DBDC...I know GLoF would probably appreciate it)
    There *is* evidence that some MK members are preparing to quit the game based on the aid they are sending out to in game friends. I will follow up on matters at the retirement home in the next week.

    1. Drink because you want it, not because you need it.
    2. Bent over a toilet isn't "fun", slow down before you get there, figure out what went wrong if you do, don't repeat.
    3. Work hard, then play hard. Earn the booze.
    4. Be cool. Violent, passed out, mouthy, and stupid aren't cool.
    5. Never drink alone.
    6. Courage and self confidence can't be stored in a bottle.
    7. The state is the last entity that should set a minimum drinking age--any organization that will allow you to carry an automatic rifle for the purpose of killing people, drive a million dollar armored vehicle, legally own property, vote in elections, participate in triple penetration hard core porn movies as an "actor", be convicted as an adult of all crimes, and make a million other adult decisions because you are "mature enough to take on the responsibility" yet won't allow you to legally buy a light beer has a very weird sense of priorities, most misplaced. All that said, if you are underage, be discrete, don't over indulge and don't be the one that prohibitionists and other nanny staters point to as a reason for not lowering the drinking age.
    8. No one likes to drink with a mooch. If you can't afford even to pick up the tab next time, switch to ice water.
    9. Some people find it impossible to keep the above rules. They shouldn't drink.
    10. Deliberately enticing or tricking someone into violating the above rules is evil. Don't be evil.
