Why do I wish to create a new nation? I do because it gives Euro's a unique place to come from. A closed society of wealthy families? mainly because that's too small for what I'm going for, be that sounding rude, and I do this instead of adding flavour to luna because of what I said before, I mean I would be willing to cut it down to one planet or Maybe flesh out another planet, but a biodome on Luna probably not, I will be honest with you,.

Very simply, I can do this: I am here, now, discussing this with you in English. This means, what? That national identity is a rather frail little thing. Or, at least, the way you describe it to be with this nation. I sincerely doubt that the EU, and the nations that it governs, will exist in their current form (something which your nation expects) for that long. Most likely a federalized state, will be what takes over. At which point, national identity will play an even lesser role. Further more, ultranationalism and isolationism, something which, again, your nation has as an expectation for existance, are very damning. Specially when we're talking about establishment of colonies in space. And this little gem, I am not insinuating. I based my reply on yours, which clambered to, amusingly enough, the paragraph written in a sarcastic tone of voice. Tell me something, how will we benefit from adding this nation to the lore? The existence of comparable alternatives already suggests that this would be redundant. The ultranationalistic approach would ensure that it only tailors to a very few individuals (chiefly, you, no?), which will result in this being discarded and never actually actively used (without a requirement for buy-ins, I guarantee, not many would have even taken note). For a moment, see the bigger picture here, Vittorio. What is the point of having lore, when everyone creates their own little piece of spess? There is none. Lore is a binding element, one which needs to be populated by player activity, and not expanded onto infinity. And if I come off as vindictive, or as an arse, then I apologize. But it's a point I believe must be battled over. The only part you actually somewhat offended me with was the first sentence, do not think I am so thin blooded as to take anger to such a minor thing. "This means, what? That national identity is a rather frail little thing. Or, at least, the way you describe it to be with this nation.

Specially when we're talking about establishment of colonies in space" (Skull, 3, 1) (DOn't judge me I'm doing English so MLA format is jammed in there) I have several reasons that could discredit your thought of an eventual federal Europe, but that is RL politics and has no place here, Will it though? do the Irish Scottish and welsh have any less of an Identity as they did when the Kingdom of Alba existed? No I would say a National reawakening is happening, What of the Arameans who still to this day exist in Iraq and the levant? A people is not so frail as you think.Where did I state isolationism would be a factor? Culture =/= Ethnicity sure the orginal Settlers would be Italians and Europeans, however even others can be Assimilated over times, Say the Algerians in france and no not the Pied-noire, but the Pure blooded African one, eventually they will be French, And bam! . let me define Ultranationalism "extreme devotion to or advocacy of the interests of a nation, especially regardless of the effect on any other nations." tell me how does this play in?

That was sarcasm, Vittorio. Very heavy sarcasm. I mind because doing what I sarcastically said we would do would completely undermine the purpose of having consolidated lore and it would, to a degree, be unrealistic. Further more, I see that you did not actually consider my alternatives nor my offer. Simply blasted through and continued your own spiel. Disappointing. You have no idea what I have considered nor thought of and I would like if you stop insinuating what I have and have not done. Explain to me how it would be unrealistic,

Did I at any point say that they would be 100% that ethnicity? No, I said they would European in Ruler ship and culture. Not even Switzerland is 100% swiss, it would be silly to think it would be 100% one ethnicity. No necessarily, think of Russia 100 and something million mostly Russian, Nothing is black in white in EThno-Cultural terms. And XD your asking a Ultra-nationalist Fascist to not think in Nationalistic terms.

Yes everyone does have a Faction to house a Minority even the official lore does, So I see not why a mind you not very populated European tiny Section (65 mil on Novo Italia, 25 mil on New Britannia,10 Mil on the French one, 23 mil on the German,5 mil on Spanish planet and 900,000 on the Greek moon adding up to 117,900,000 less than the populations of Modern Brazil, the United states, Russia, and only slightly more than Egypt) would exist when we have Indian (This is extremely generalizing so sorry if I offend anyone) Systems, Arabic Systems etc...As for the more populated par, I have already got like 3 of the required 6 buy ins anyhow, so obviously the player population is not quite a bit of a problem considering the vast amount of both Anglosphere and European characters.

1.)NEU is better (I was exhausted when I made the name so this is noted.) Plus it's new in German. 2.)It's one system among a hundred Billion, large is not the word for it. There's several thousand inhabited systems of note. There's fewer systems with pops over a few million. Any star system with hundreds of millions or more is a major population center. But why kingdoms? Because it was the Vision of the founder? he set up the Judicial and Legislature of the Colonies and thus had free range.

Complaint: Vira DeSantos Nuke round
Vittorio Giurifiglio posted a topic in Complaints Boards Archive
BYOND Key: (This is your Byond Login/Ckey)Tytos_Tyris Player Byond Key: (This is the Byond Login/Ckey of the player you are complaining)OneOneThreeEIght Reason for complaint: (State your reason for your complaint) Yeah I'm sorry about this 13, but It had to be done, I bid you no ill will, but this was pretty bad.. So during the nuke round like 5 minutes ago, I played a Nuke op with a policy on killing innocents, after seeing another nuke op shoot and then kill COvert's CE, I decided to defect as my Charcater had been disillusioned with the integrity of his squad, So thus when a head of staff arrived (Xander) he contacted them and played the part of James Blair, Biesal Military and Nanotrasen Internal Security, The CMO believed him and so did Seto and his squad, So I went around to escort the CMO, and then tried to recieve orders from seto, everything went nice until the end as the Singulo was gobbling up the station, I was heading to the Pods, and then i see Vira at the corner of my eye and she starts shooting a Law giver with highly explosive rounds, I tried several times to tell her to stop and that I was a member of Biesal Security and she just kep[t shooting like four Hugh Ex rounds at me, without any Rp, which I know is in generally bad taste. As final notes I WAS wearing the red hardsuit, However I did announce that I nicked it because mine was destroyed. -
That is Sexy as fuck....I mean the drawing.

Jackboot Whitelist Application
Vittorio Giurifiglio replied to a topic in Whitelist Applications Archives
Personally I have not seen much of Jackboot, especially due to my inactivity during the weekdays, however from what i formerly saw he was never a BAD head, at least in my own standards,Vittorio hates all of his heads guts, then again the pot and the kettle. Over all Jackboot is a competent roleplayer and reaching German efficiency levels in Medical and thus so +1 Though Constantine is a dirty Xenophile and Greg is a suit hater, Muhammed is the finest ForTech I have seen. -
The Suit issue can be corrected, and I have been reading about the Medical Applicability of Suits to the work Place (Don't even ask how much work it was to learn why XD) It's unsanitary and generally a bad idea, So as much as it pains me to do it i will no longer wear the Suit of Justice, glory and Xenophobia. Pour le autre pointre: When you yell at him he gets pissed, Is this not the social norm for that? Confrontational? Only upon prompts from other people, such as a certain blonde insulting him. and for the last point you never know unless it happens right?

Yes, It's a God.

I actually thought this was about the Roman Sun God Sol Invictus...
