Oh my.

Is this any way to treat a fellow citizen of Atlasia?

We are all, are we not, fellow citizens of the same nation?

I do not believe that it is in the national interest for one of our regions to adopt the trappings of an archaic, elitist, imperialistic regime.

I will ally with anyone, including Winfield, in opposition to handing the euphoric, D&D-playing Atlasia Shrugged crowd back their little fiefdom.

But just my view.  It is up to the members of the South what they name the region, not up to me.

For it being a region's right before being against it being a region's right? Tongue

The thing that has most held Atlasia back has been the suppression of creativity on the part of both the regions and the Game Moderator by a crowd of boredom enthusiasts.

It has been this way since at least when I joined the game.

I don't believe there has been a single comment in or about Atlasia I agree with more than this one.

If we're going to be creative with the regional names, it's honestly one of the least creative things to go back to a name that we had before the reset.

It's also stupid to have every other name as one word- and then give the South three words as their name. Hence why I didn't vote for the awful name of Atlantic Union in the North.

If we're going to get a new name for the South why do we have to go back in time and pick the worst name

1. Good point

2. Conformity ftw! Tongue

3. We don't. The point is, why does everyone go apesh**t fing bananas whenever a region does something that offends their "tastes" and threatens to "force conformity" either by Federal dictate or a regional invasion.

Let them name the region whatever the hell they want and let the people of the region vote on it, and lets respect those people and the decision they have made.

I really just like "The South". I mean, I get why "The North" (Too GoT) and "The West" (The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.) would change their names because they lack the regional history that the South contains. I am fine with the IDS, but like, there just seems to be little interest especially with so many new folks joining and it not having the same meaning it did a year ago.

Anyways, my vote was and still goes to Shenandoah.

Scissorland, Beckett, and Calavicci are my first three choices. We can import to make the first one true.

If there's sufficient desire for this, please PM me! Cheesy

I'll happily submit a bill to rename the south the IDS.

Since this discussion has officially entered into the "Really Stupid" category, and since I am the one responsible for opening this can of worms, perhaps the South could adopt the following name:

The Most Illustrious Serene Realm Of The Utopian Ideal

Until someone comes up with a great idea that the game will be more fun if a region changes name because the name is boring or stupid, and people will have different preferences but one name will be chosen until someone comes up with a great idea that the game will be more fun if a region changes name....

Imperial Dominion of the South

Sounds like a slave state

Especially the Imperial Dominion part
