Well, looking at the RedEagleOfficial debacle and the "Deeply Disturbing!" leaks, I guess after this thread some are planning to do the exact opposite now.
Doesn't matter, both will kill Atlasia as we know it.
Resistance will not be accepted only controlled opposition . I fail to see how recruiting at most a dozen people off site from a YouTube channel as killing a game.
I have never advocated for a "controlled opposition". I fully know Atlasia needs a strong opposition that can at least win elections.
However, off-site recruitment is not the way to go, I've been opposed to it for quite a while. Now, if those new posters eventually settle in Atlas and they want to join the game, they are more than welcome. Maybe one of them will even become a Senator or president some day! But off-site recruitment for the sake of having a zombie legion that will vote for one side breaks the game.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems that the non-written rules against off site recruitment have been weakening more and more.
In another Atlasian history lesson (man I love paying attention Yankee/Griff's history lessons. I'm such a good student ), back in 2013, Wolfentoad was condemned for several reasons. While it was nowhere near the only reason, one of the reasons he was shunned by the rest of Atlasia was that he attempted to perform off-site recruitment from Stormfront (interestingly, as the head of the Liberal party!).

Interestingly, the "let's put right wingers in Labor and destroy them from the inside" that was confirmed by the "Deeply Disturbing!" Discord log was also an strategy performed by Wolfentoad back in the day lol.
Now, I won't pretend RedEagle's channel is anywhere near Stormfront. I haven't watched his videos other than the Atlas one, but very few things can top Stormfront, and I doubt a Youtube channel does. Also, nothing has happened so far.
However, if it did eventually happen, why can't all of Atlasia be united in condemning fhtagn and NYCMM's attempts to subvert Atlasia, just like all of Atlasia was united in condemning Wolfentoad first and the 2015 radicals later?
The left can easily convince people to vote and not contribute to the game at all. You guys have random people who dont care about the game, with 20 posts voting. If that's the case and off site recruiting is bad, then this game is dead and people need to move on.
