Kankou Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 No one as in no one aside from Zoot Zoot. We all know Zoot Zoot is not all that capable when it comes to military affairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PresidentDavid Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 So let me get this straight... The King of England comes to Ireland asking for 12 billion dollars to "rebuild" English infrastructure while Ireland is suffering food and fuel problems yet England has the capability of gathering and launching around 200 or 300 satellites within it's first week of existence? I've had Ireland for a good while and I have one satellite >_> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoot Zoot Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 Christ, I said earlier in this page, that they will be launched over time. Not in one mass launch. $%&@, I aint even sorted half of my stuff out yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owned-You Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 Logically, you should have the satellite improvement and Space Program wonder. Or that is what I thought at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanis777 Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 (edited) I think it's long been thought satellite improvements gave access to sats in space for military RP, as for the Space Program wonder... that I believed guided in the direction of having bigger than objects than sats in RP.

[/quote] This is what I've been going on. nothing's needed for civ sats, IG sats are needed for military-grade hardware in space and the space program allows you to get a spacestation or two, land a moon-mission, basically what NASA's done to date.

Yawoo Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Alright, so I've seen at least two postings today of "private thoughts" without further RPing. Can we please not slide back into that? It adds nothing to the RP and only clutters the thread. Man up and make a real statement that all other nations can respond to or don't bother posting at all.

Isaac MatthewII Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 (edited) Not being one of the people that has done it, I don't find a problem with it. If you don't like it, you don't have to read it. Maybe they don't want to have a totally national RP, which is by no means a rule of the game. They may just want to communicate their characters feelings on the matters. They don't have to make a national post, in fact most nations don't make national statements about everything they want to communicate. So get over it, you can invade them for sneezing if you want.

[/quote] One liner private musings serve no purpose and provide a cope out, similar to the blogger/citizen/random report that was rampant a few years ago/few months ago. If they want to have private musings, at least put an effort in to it in your own news/action thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yawoo Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 (edited) Oh, Isaac... 1. You can't just [i]not[/i] read something while going through the course of a thread. By the time you realize what is posted, you have already read the sentence. Homo sapiens do not posses the magical gifts of knowing when to skip a post because of it's content and when not to. I blame it on the lack of fairy dust in our veins. 2. It's not about invading anyone (although your permission to invade people for sneezing is noted), but rather community interaction, and quite frankly, some standards of RPing that the community should be upholding. We got together over a year ago and banded together to decry private RP statements like 'Late Night Commentators' and this is no different. Private thoughts are nothing more than for people to express their opinions without taking any risk - and that is a terrible thing for a community which is built around interacting with others. If you want to be warm and snugly at night with your pixels, without fear of the monsters lurking in your closet, then go into Botha mode. Otherwise, start interacting with the community when threads are such that they're open to world opinions.

Yawoo, you can call us Humans, that is considered an ok description. Also, you can read the first line such as "In the presidents office late at night" or "On the presidents hospital bed" and not read the rest, hopefully it doesn't take to much of your brain power.

Should I dumb down my posts in the future, or can I continue to assume CNRPers enjoy at least a sixth grade level of education?

That is silly, a whole war declaration could be included below without my knowledge.
