Probably not, just this incessant recruiting of people with practically no posts. It's ruining the game.

I guarantee you some of these sudden new recruits are our old friend, Kyle. Just a matter of time before they are found out.

i seem to remember Marokai making the same complaint  a few months ago, one that stands in particular was asserting Dallasfan, who is currently representing you in the senate, and at the ConCon  and others were "conclusively zombies" . Moral of the story is, give new posters a chance before you you begin crusading against them.

but this isint the place to be arguing this, its only polluting the thread.

I would urge my members to refrain from such unfounded accusations unless they have proof. For it also ruins the game.

I also suspected the same thing about Vane long before he was outed as Hamilton. Sometimes I'm right, sometimes I'm wrong. And I've apologized to Dallas.

I wouldn't call them all Hamilton either, but it's pretty clear there's some obsessive level of recruiting newbies going on here. People that don't really know anything about Atlasia and have practically no posts who are sheparded along by Populares leadership doing whatever they're told, serving as increased voting support, and as paper candidates whenever they need a stand-in.

Whether people like this fact or not, it is most definitely not healthy for the game in any way. And it only adds to our inability to change the game in any meaningful way because these new recruits have no history and no context in which to view these efforts, do whatever leadership informs them of, and I'd be willing to bet money on half these new recruits not even of age to get a learner's permit.

The Populares are the party of the people. Unlike you, we are welcoming to 'newbies' and work hard to integrate them into Atlasia. That's why they join us, not you.

The Populares are the party of and for all people, especially for the common people and newbies who are otherwise shunned, ignored, or attacked by the entrenched establishment elites.

Coincidentally, I see you are using half of our party's slogan as your display name...

You should have seen our WW2 argument on AIM. He claimed WW2 was started because of British interventionist foreign policy and accused the USSR of attacking 'poor defenceless Finland' in an attempt to conquer it. Ignoring the fact that Finland was well armed and was basically an ally of Hitler.

Of course, Hitler was peaceful dude and probably even a Libertarian. That's just these damn Poles who haven't agreed to give him what he wanted, and these British imperialists!

How am I embarrasing myself? You are the one who thinks that Hitler was a sweet old man who only wanted the Polish Corridor and would then have settled down and not attacked anyone else.

Yes, so we should hand over our lands just to please an agressor, so much for liberty and freedom according to Libertas.

I can't speak for some of the other new guys, but if it was me you were betting on you would lose that bet.

I don't understand this hostility towards new people, but it seems to me that if nobody new tried to join your cliquish game then number of people that leave over time would cause the game to eventually fall apart because of a lack of people.  I have been a member of this site since April and just decided to pop on over here and check out this sub-forum.  The Populares seemed the best fit for my political views so I joined them.  Besides, a friend of mine from another forum, Zacoftheaxes, is also a Populare. 

Yes the Populare leadership did suggest I run for the SE Legislature and I thought "sure, why not?"  I guess because I'm just a paper candidate and a Hamilton sock I don't have a chance.  Maybe I ought to go back alternatehistory.com.

Well, obviously some people don't vote in their own interests.
