Hi I am new here, but not new to this game. I played this game for more than 3 months. Okay so should we raid some region? I am ready to serve this region as a Raiding Officer. May I ?

I have already explained this in a earlier statement..

The Empire of Great Britain is a Democratic region. We don't conquer and control as you may think, We spread Unity and Freedom. We only accept regions in Economic Trade only if the region requests, Or if a citizen (Or a friend or family member of a citizen in some cases) creates their own region for their country and requests the Government to have it displayed under the region's World Factbook. For an example; I could have my nation setup as more of a Independent nation like Canada, But as a Royalist i chose to have Menorica as a Island composed of a national region under the complete rule and reign of Her Majesty Queen Victoria instead of having a virtual Monarchy like Canada where the Monarchy (Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II) is represented by a Governor-General. None of anyone under this region required Menorica to be under this state of rule, I chose this Menorican recognition myself. The region doesn't require much, Not like some other British-themed Regions (like the most-popular; United Kingdom region) at least. This is the virtual continuation of the great Empire that fell in 1997. Hong Kong Island plays an important role.

Dear everyone, can I have a little help. I have prepared a proposal which is capable enough for being a Resolution, but I need help. I don't have any endorsement's, So I can't propose the proposal I made. So, Your Majesty, Can you ask some people to just give me 2 endorsement's. 2 are enough I don't need more. Please help me fellow region mates and sire's. Thank's

Their proposal is plagiarized, and illegal even if it isn't.

?? It is not. I read some articles and watched some yt videos to understand this.

Thank you for this information. Hyperpolis, I cannot consider endorsing you at this time.

How do you believe him sir, He is not even a person of this region, he is just a passer by.You may consider that it is plagerized sir, but however, he is not a member of this region. We can't trust him.

His evidence is quite compelling. Why not wait and present the finished version of the proposal before requesting endorsements?

Hyperpolis wrote:

Ok sir, but can I post it to you in private chat instead of grp because some people may copy it. Also sir, it may take me time because I am still a kid and need to go to school.

God Save The Queen!!!!! Send Her Victorious! After that not even I will consider endorsing you when i rejoin the WA!

Scatter her enemies and make them fall! You are not a real nation, As Former World Assembly DELEGATE I can assure you with only 12 Million citizens with the most flag that raiders use that it is NOT possible to run a proposal, You shall NOT take over this region by endorsement and you shall not trick us into endorsing you. Just 6 DAYS ago another NationStates member has made a complaint about you possibly spamming the region of Earth United Board. Also your first message to that region was as i quote "Hi I am the same, fort tech. I wanted to endorse Thunderbird, but that nation it didn't work so I made a new one, sorry for messaging to much, I will try to be a little quiet from now." - Again, Your second message to that region which is HIGHLY similar to your fifth post here in this region "Hello friend's,

So, I am interested in writing a proposal, which could be made a resolution with your help. I am writing a resolution on the topic, International Health Aid. I am requesting help on asking your view's regarding it, and also what all should be a part of it, kindly help me." - Another nation has stated a very similar decline to ours, And The nation that made a complaint towards you simply said "Stop spamming brother." as you were interrupting with either 2 things: Raid, Or a World Assembly Proposal. If you were actually submitting a proposal to the General Public you would FIRST put it up as display in your personal Factbook entry. You don't come here to join friendship, You've come here to raid and to disturb the peace. You wish to conquer this great region so you think up of a roleplaying skill just so that you can have United provinces emissary's endorsement, Which i believe if i remember correctly from my FIRST NationStates region The Kingdom of Great Britain in a very old raiding book it requires an endorsement to further target a region, For all we know you probably have an Army of nations waiting to arrive at your acquaintance to furtherly assist you in this treasonous event you have planned. It even SAYS so on the How-To documentary on how to raid.

Raiding Guide 2

by Kattally

Lesson 1: Introduction to Raiding

What is Raiding?

Raiding is when a group of people work together to take over a region by joining the World Assembly and moving into the region before it updates. One of them then takes the position of WA Delegate, and can do either of two things:

1. "Tag" the region and leave by:

• Customising the World Factbook Entry (WFE)

• Changing the regional flag

• Controlling the proposition, construction and closure of embassies

• Suppressing as many posts as one likes on the Regional Message Board (RMB)

2. Occupy the region for an extended period of time; potentially destroying it
...

How to Raid?

Step 1: Join the World Assembly

1. Click the "World Assembly" link in the sidebar

2. Click the "Apply to Join" button to be sent an invitation email

3. Click the link in the email to join the World Assembly

Step 2: Endorse the point nation

Step 3: Move to the targeted region

Step 4: Gain delegacy of the targeted region
...

Benefits of Raiding

Contrary to what many others might say, there are indeed benefits to raiding, and more than one might imagine or even acknowledge. Below is a list that is in no way exhaustive:

• The joy of working together with friends and as a team

• Occupying territory in the form of a region

• Paving the way to refounding the region

• Testing reflexes in fast-paced switching

• Kicking others out of the region

Lesson 2: Occupations

Introduction

Occupations are one of the most basic raids and – strangely enough – one of the most commonly-practiced. They involve securing the delegacy of a region and holding it for a period of time, often with the intention to refound the region.
...

Goals

• Occupying and releasing

• Recruitment

• Refounding

• Publicity

...
How to Occupy?

As a reinforcement:

• There isn't much to do other than to endorse the point and wait.

• However, when there is an update on, one is free to leave for the update, as long as one re-endorses the point after the update.

As the point:

• The point must be on the lookout during the Major and Minor updates for defenders attempting to liberate the occupied region.

• When defenders enter the region in order to liberate an occupation, the point must banject every one of them as soon as they enter the region.

Lesson 3: Update Raiding

Introduction

Update raiding is always done during the updates, and allows you to use and re-use multiple puppets throughout the update, allowing for multiple regions to be raided in a single update. It is the most well-known, but least-practised form of raiding. It is often called "tag raiding".
...

Tag Raiding

• DO NOT JOIN THE WORLD ASSEMBLY WITH MORE THAN ONE NATION

• Move all switcher puppets to The_Evil_Empire before the update starts. Evil Empire is a region that updates very late and thus, is used to stage all tag raids.

• Communication for all raids are hosted on Discord, contact the individual that recruited you if you're not already part of the server.

• Switcher puppets can be personalized, or randomly generated.

• You can now apply the World Assembly (WA) at any time.

...
Updates

To lead a raid, you need to know about the updates. The updates are when all the Issues for nations are processed, and when the endorsement counts for delegates are updated. Each region updates at a different time over the duration of the updates. Each update lasts approximately an hour in total.
...

There are two updates each day:

• Major Update: starts at 12:00 AM EST

• Minor Update: starts at 12:00 PM EST

...

(Review Lesson 5 First) Tag Raiding Continued

Having picked out a target at this point you will be picking another region that updates before your desired target; We coordinate when to jump by watching for the earlier region to update.

You can watch for the update message here:

https://www.nationstates.net/template-overall=none/region=INSERT_REGION_NAME

You are waiting for it to say "Seconds Ago". When that appears either you or someone else leading will post "GO" into a group discord. At which everyone will move to the target region.

Do this too early and Defenders or Native Nations will have an opportunity to counter your efforts.

Lesson 4: Stealth Raiding

Introduction

As the name implies, stealth raiding is infiltration, and done by the spies of NationStates. Often, it involves getting close to natives, only to stab them in the back. Other times, it involves rising through the ranks of another Gameplay region or organisation.
...

Creating a "Clean" Puppet

You need a puppet to infiltrate a region. Thinking of using a puppet you last used to raid a region? No. You need a new puppet never used for raiding before: a "clean puppet" to be exact. Never use a "dirty" puppet for infiltration.
...

I. Make the puppet look genuine. Pretend that this is your very first nation. This means:

• No references to any part of NationStates or Gameplay

• No default options

II. Answer your Issues regularly. This means:

• It's not necessary to answer them every time you get them. Answering Issues once every two days is the barest minimum.

• A puppet not answering Issues looks suspicious enough. A puppet not answering Issues but remaining active looks extremely suspicious

III. "My main nation is Gest. Therefore, my puppet will be named Kommandant Von Gest!" — How NOT to name a puppet
...

Insertion into the Target

Step 1: Allow your puppet to receive some recruitment telegrams. Then move your puppet to one of the regions that sent that telegram.

• Do NOT move your puppet to any raider or imperialist regions

• Stay in the region you moved to for a few days at least

• Continue to answer Issues

Step 2: Move your puppet into the target region.

• Do NOT communicate with the natives

• Continue to answer Issues

...
Joining the World Assembly (WA)

It is advised to wait before applying to the WA. The WA is not well-known to new users, and it is very unlikely for them to want to join it. Do not apply to the WA with your puppet straight away, but do not apply too soon before the raid, either. Do not join immediately upon receiving the WA invitation in your emails. Your puppet should be in the WA a minimum of several hours before the raid is about to take place.
...

Lesson 5: Choose Your Target

Finding a Target

When choosing a region to raid, look at its size, activity, whether it's an ally or an enemy, as well as how many endorsements the delegate has. Nations in regions gain Influence. Influence is needed to kick others out of a region. Influence is gained through residing in a region, logging in regularly and having more endorsements.
...

Founderless Regions

Some regions – whether they were created before the advent of founders, or through loss – have no founder. These are the only regions that can be occupied. A list of Founderless regions can be found here.
...

Calculating Update Times

To find when a target updates, there are a variety of tools to calculate the approximate times. We however will be using 20xx.
...

Step 1: Download 20xx. Then Extract folder.

Step 2: Open folder, find and activate the 'Application', type your nation's name in, press enter.

Step 3: After it has completed running you can go back to that folder and open an excel sheet with the current date.

Step 4: You are now viewing the approximate times regions will update.

• 0:0:0 is 12 AM/PM.

• 0:0:20 means the update will occur 20 seconds after 12 AM/PM.

• Refer back to lesson three for further steps into Tag Raiding.

...

Lesson 6: Know Your Enemy

Defenders

The first and foremost of those among the enemy, but also the most open about their motives. They alternate between preventing raiders from raiding a region, and removing all signs of their raids long after they've left, regardless of whether the natives care enough to reverse the signs or not. There are always more defenders than one might expect, so never lapse in concentration when there are defenders active during update. They are often called "fendas" for short, but to them, it's a derogatory term.
...

Moderates

The most enigmatic and questionable of motive among the enemy. They alternate between raiding and defending and back again at the slightest provocation or whim. One never knows where a moderate stands, nor who they truly side with at any given time. One minute, they help reinforce an occupation, but the next minute they are among the defenders trying to liberate the occupied region. They believe that both raiding and defending are the best of both worlds, while they are treated with suspicion.
...

Natives

Though they are barely a threat on their own, natives have a pack mentality, with safety and strength in numbers... If only they knew how to harness that strength. They have a unity, driven by extreme animosity towards raiders for raiding their regions – as well as those of acquaintances – but such a unity is comparable only to Raider Unity in strength, but not prominence. It is admirable, in a sense. Because of their status, many find themselves on common ground with defenders, with some eventually becoming defenders themselves.
...

However, a rare few natives find themselves on common ground with raiders. Whether due to a misunderstanding with defenders past, understanding that raiding is just a part of a game, or for any other reason, they exhibit civility, and even courtesy, towards raiders. They are more open-minded than many others – natives, defenders and raiders alike – and, at the risk of being ostracized by their social circles, they may acquaint themselves with raiders. A few brave individuals, risking old friendships, even become raiders in their own right.
...

Read factbook

Of Course, Raiding a region isn't possible if there is already a Delegate with the most endorsements, But certainly is possible if a group of friends is certainly ready at any time to come in and endorse to conquer. I know this direct move because i have seen this happen in my very own puppet region TWICE in different names. One of the key reasons why i haven't rebuild one like i said i was because i was frightened that this might all happen again in my very own region. Little did i ever think about an attempt happening in a region that i am VERY grateful of choosing. You've failed to conquer and most importantly you've failed to play as a real roleplay nation. You've had 6 Days to change that flag and you haven't done so. I know a kid who did go to school as well in another British-themed region United Kingdom and was SUPER busy with real life situations and had needed to go to school and this person STILL had the time to change the nation's flag and actually roleplay. This person is not on NationStates anymore but this person was still skilled enough to qualify as a national leader! What you are doing is nothing from what that person has done. You've jumped here from raiding to asking for endorsement about a proposal which could already be helped by the World Assembly Board by simply using the Forum: viewforum.php?f=9. It's very obvious that this is not an actual call for help. As the nation itself who made the How-To raid document have the same flag with 514 Million citizens and has not been active in the last 2 Days. Before that, the nation had ceased to exist before being refounded 237 Days later. It's a puppet nation only used for raiding.

God Save Our Gracious Queen,
Long Live Our Noble Queen,
God Save The Queen!
Send Her Victorious!,
Happy And Glorious!,
Long To Reign Over Us;
God Save The Queen!

Oh Lord, Our God Arise,
Scatter Her Enemies,
And Make Them Fall!,
Confound Their Politics,
Frustrate Their Knavish Tricks,
On Thee Our Hopes We Fix;
God Save Us All!

Thy Choicest Gifts In Store,
On Her Be Pleased To Pour,
Long May She Reign!,
May She Defend Our Laws!,
And Ever Give Us Cause,
To Sing With Heart And Voice;
God Save The Queen!

So what are you trying to say sir? Are you saying that I should leave this region. Look I don't understand what you mean by the word "Tricking". What would I demolish, 2 endorsmnets wont make me a delegate and demolish your region or something. I am just trying to write and article(proposal) in WA General Assembly. And please think twice before messaging, Your message could hurt others feelings.

A World Assembly Delegacy is formed by a number of endorsements. You've come here asking to raid, The picture might have been different if you were like all of us in here who come here to roleplay and actually become friends with one-another. And a region can't be demolished unless the founder has fled the region and all of a region's administrators have either fled or was removed, before 24 hours of not having any Government body to administrate. That is called a cease. The same thing can happen to your nation IF you are inactive for more than 28-60 Days. Nation States will e-mail you regarding sudden "Apocalypse' closure of your nation, However you may not receive that e-mail if it is instead a region. And i also advise you to think twice before posting as well, As you were caught spamming both regions with obviously the same proposal help request, Before that, trying to get other nations to endorse you for whatever the cause. If you come here for peace and to enjoy a good roleplay experience you are more than welcome to stay, But if you are only here to cause a scene that cannot be acceptable. And i am sorry if i went a little too much in my long post, But as Former WA Delegate, Home Secretary and Overseas Secretary i will not let this great region be interrupted by someone who got thrown out of another good region for the same problem we are currently having. I will not stand for it. You've even fled that region to join another region only to raid. In this region we all come together to create a great roleplay for all who are looking for one.

Due to recent events, I have decided that for the foreseeable future I shall only endorse the elected WA Delegate - as I am legally obliged to do so.

I would like to ask you to postpone the elections as there are currently no one participating in the elections. So, conducting it would not be useful. I would like you to conduct an election after 10 to 15 days so that I can participate. Also, from the political party which is named something like BBWA, there is one participant (Named Gwanda in our discord server) who is also still not eligable. So I would like you to postpone the elections to at least 1 day's.
