Corruption in Erepublik.
k.fitz bah
Hello eIreland!
This is Rough
Rider. k.fitz bah is posting on my behalf.
A few weeks back, I ran an experiment in the eUSA to see which of our
Congressman were corrupt. I hired a member of the eUK (they are not
allowed USA Citizenship) to offer a bribe of 15,000 CC to all of our
Congressman and see how they would respond. I posted the results in my
article, Congressional
Bribe Results.
I'm sure you're all anxious to see the results of how your Irish
Congressmen responded, so here they are.
The following players denied the bribe
stpucca
BiednyMis
sawc
Malbekh
Viktor Kurgan
olaf iverstone
Bhane
Winston Hope
Smith
micutzu
AppleMan
Ronisu
Liam Tatlock
Tiernann
Irasian
Anthony Colby
Rikian1776
Will Carey
Ethel Rosenberg
The following players accepted the bribe
driplexCRO

kero-jarun

The following players are questionable
MUFC92
**Proof**
Patrick
O'leary **Proof**
Independent Labour Party
Irish Freedom Party
Irish Progressive Party
Irish Union Party
Irish Independence Party
Irish Socialist Party
View the results as you wish. There is indeed a lot of grey area, but
I believe that is due to the Congressmen ignoring me. They were given
over 48hrs to respond, so lets give them the benefit of the doubt.

CROATS OUT OF IRELAND

Haha, I tried to see if I could get a free 15K : P
Nice article and research btw
Ha ha indeed.
Far better performance than the US. Those spouting on about 'Croats out' are interesting. Surely if a majority of corrupt or possibly corrupt politicians belong to a military organisation, we should be looking to get rid of its members?
ICA out anyone? Unless of course you want to withdraw the Croats out statement?
Nope that'll do, fuck off Croats and take the ICA too if that's the price
Not enough proof in my opinion.

I believe it is justified to accept bribes from those trying to buy and scam them after donation. If you were to convince them that the guy would donate after cs was accepted, then it would be much more accurate.
IMHO it is not relevant to any Party, MU etc., Simply put some people are corrupt and some are not.
Some like Pat tried to scam the scammer.(which I admit was tempting to do but once a number of Congressmen reported the same offer it was fairly obvious what was happening).
btw we in Congress knew this was coming and had discussed it.
Exactly WHS. I'm just pointing out the absurdity of the statement in the first place.
i am wondering if there would be more of red if we didnt post warning is congress thread about the guy. We can only speculate on this one, but its good to have things like congress thread, we got alarmed in matter of minute,.
I know you did WHS, you didn't figure it out right away, but Kurgan found the other article. Almost said something when he brought it up, but decided not to.
😁 as whs said
Crap , My Million never made the list
and i found one mistake... ifp has 9no (impressive) 1yes and 1questionable. Only 2 persons are questionable in article above, neither is IFP.
is this because he is questionable? http://www.erepublik.com/en/citizen/profile/4782959
to be fair to MUFC92 (and I'm not his biggest fan) to agree to the offer when you have NO citz passes left is an obvious attempt to scam the scammer and in no way questionable.
Right, so taking money or potentially taking money for citizenship is bad. But merely scamming is good, yeah?
I don't mow down people in my car but I do break traffic lights.
lol malbekh.. true.. anyhow... @whs... that was just... 'look this is interesting' with humoristic/sarcastic comment to it...
All the Pie Charts are labeled "Independent Labour Party"
= P
"I don't mow down people in my car but I do break traffic lights. "
if your traffic lights are deliberately trying to make you crash then break them with impunity I would say
i totally ignore that kind of people that are trying to bribe for a cs,i am happy i belong to the grey zone but good article,voted
As it happens, I didn't know this was a concerted effort to get in, I just don't accept bribes (feel free to gift me things as a reward!).
I'm sure we all saw the original run of this in USA and those accepting the offer were just looking to make a donation to BootCamp : )
@WHS the issue is standards. Once you start setting down standards then those same standards judge you. Worse still, you then get judged by the standards of others. If scamming is OK in certain circumstances, then looting the vaults of the country is the next step up. That would be just a scam yeah?
@Malbekh are you for real...compare the two?
I think I know what you are trying to say though and while I have sympathy for the point I would not lose any sleep over the supposed victim i9n this case
Hey Malbekh, stop mentioning the past. I heard that was soooo last season....
I am indeed for real. You were CP not so long ago were you not? Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.
@ WHS
I would not either, however even attempting that is against eRep rules. And, if some are willing to scam, there are those who are serious.
Biased, you wanted them to look corrupt.
*casts the first stone?*
I've never scammed anyone, never multi'ed, never asked for votes, paid for them, or accepted money for them. I've never been in eIrish Congress so had no fingers in that pie either. When I handled state funding as Chief of Staff in 3000BC , I accounted for everything, weekly, with screenies and a separate inventory. Handover was carried out when I resigned.
Strange as it may seem, there are many potential sin-free-stone-throwers amongst us. Not everyone here is a knob.
Bribes are wrong. Always have been always will.
I guess an argument could be made since there is no law enforcement or laws of any kind really (except for Platos rules to regarding the game and not laws that we the citizens live by) then scamming a briber could be seen as some sort of justice but it is kind of grey in my opinion.
Would've been nice if congress didn't have a warning about this or if they weren't prepared for this.. It doesn't REALLY show who would or wouldn't take the bribe. Anyone who would take the bribe after knowing that this was gonna happen would have to be an idiot..
Actually the question was a bit too vague too be fair:
Can i buy citizenship for 15000?
?citizenship is actually a given aint it. So when you ask can I buy citizenship for 15000 you meant from any country congress member through the whole world. Actually the 19 + 12 congress members got it wrong 🙁
The 4 congress members that got the question right should get 15000 for being able to answer a noob question correctly.
Ps the last guy actually said you can for 17 million lol.
PS no hard worker medals , no strength medals. ??? 34 battle hero medals
Confuse me if I'm wrong but YOU contacted Patrick O'Leary right? I hope you're not the hired eUK agent you speak of.
@ Grainna
I never took a bribe of any sort
I have no multies - never had
I have never scammed anyone
I have been (am) in Congress but I consider this an honour, I see no pie to have my fingers in
I have been CP but did not gain in any way by this except the 5 G i got
I never bought a vote
I also say that most players i come across appear as honest players
Some don't and mores the pity!
@Grainne
That was aimed at WHS, our recent CP and supporter of scammers
@Malbekh "I am indeed for real. You were CP not so long ago were you not? Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. "
I am hurt by the insinuation,
I play this game honestly.
I am a politician I scheme I plot I do not however break the rules....ever!
Please direct your suspicious mind elsewhere!
I never said you were dishonest. I merely pointed out that you support scammers. It's not my place to judge you.
