Is There No One Else
Stormin EwokJedi
Well, well, well, isn't this just a carnival of absurdity we've been witnessing in the game lately? It's like we've collectively decided to take a sledgehammer to the very concept of fun and smash it into smithereens. We can point fingers at Plato till the cows come home, but this whole scenario feels like a scene straight out of Nietzsche's playbook, with us proclaiming, "God is dead. We killed him. Now what?"
We've essentially turned this game into a playground for power-hungry puppeteers. The sheep among us just stand by while the King of Snakes and his lackeys run amok, pulling strings in all the Trade Wars and cozying up with foreign like-minded powers. They're having their little victory dances over battles they've rigged so shamelessly it's like beating a first-grade basketball team and calling it a triumph.
And now, to add a cherry on top of this ludicrous cake, we've got bots scribbling out battle plans like they're the latest military strategists. We currently have a bot writing daily battle orders and the ultimate hypocrite Dom as Prime Minster who was the original “fake” bot hunter.
Don't even get me started on BSP selling their soul to blindly support their former most hated player in the game who they went on and on about being corrupt for YEARS or WTP following orders like obedient puppies.
But hey, enough griping. Let's focus on solutions.
What should we do
STOP BOTS
Being proud of defeating CODE/Croatia is truly pathetic. The eUS has openly cheated its way to victory with the moral pretext of, “they did it first”. Shame on all of us for tolerating this.
Without bots, battles would be interesting, everyone would be needed again, and the map would be wild and FUN.
Leave Asteria
Everyone is joining, it’s huge, and it’s lopsided, creating a complete lack of competition
This is a game, if it’s not competitive, what the hell are we doing?
Stop accepting the status quo. Seriously, who is having fun watching a few cheaters control the country while you do little to nothing?
So what would this look like? We’d need the Fed leaders to actually fight, we’d need us all to fight. Currently, we don’t because the bots handle most of the fighting. We’d be a small nation having to use teamwork again to fight off the enemy hordes. It would be hard, fun, frustrating, and a GAME worth playing.
But you know what we won't do? Anything. Yup, we've reached peak apathy and laziness. The cheaters have free rein; we're all just spectators in our own demise. It's like watching paint dry but with less excitement.
The apathy and laziness have built up so much that the cheaters have no competition and no reason to change how they play. They play for themselves and their cabal, not you the majority of the players. It will be a few more years of zero domestic anything, and zero media from administrations (Danger’s term was beyond boring and we are already off to Owl’s 4th painfully boring term in the last 7 terms).
So, unless someone grows a backbone and shakes things up, we're in for more of the same: zero excitement, zero rivalries, and zero reason to stick around. This game was far more entertaining when even the likes of Groot were still playing. More players equals more fun. The current path leads to more people leaving which is why we…not Plato…are killing this game.

thanks for ignoring my fight for years …
Says the medal thief...
omg, with the stealing whine … you yourself and your lame party have claimed it a war game, they ain’t no such thing as stewlt
How can be a medal stolen? It is awarded after battle to the player who did the highest damage on one side in one division. It can't be stolen. Or did you find, that the number of battle and sky hero medals on your profile page is decreasing?
ye you are SAVIOR of The eWorld, biggest fighter for players rights (especially in robbing ppl from gold and turning walls in most battles)
"robbing ppl from gold"
lol. There's no such thing, unless he's taking it from their pockets.
What people try to do is play stupid games (aka spend the minimum possible to farm the max amount of gold) and then complain about winning stupid prizes. Not to mention those crying the loudest have many times more medals on their profiles than those they cry about.
Said one-man-army narcist xd
Dude, it's all about respect, if someone comes at last seconds just to show how big a-hole he is to another player or take the prize while you are offline (because if you are online he shit pants to fight like a man) or come simply just to annoy you - who is such player/person? We have game mechanics what we have, it let's ppl fight for resources, I would even say it let's Power Abuse which I already experienced. Strongerm and bigger can take everything here. Noone likes power abusing, do you know what is this? You can play such way or play by respecting each other, earn good in cooperation, have good relations with other players and show some respect. Vast majority of our community play such way, is this making of me big complainer? Are you his lawyer or what? If you want to follow biggest attention seeker and hater of entire group of ppl (SFP) who judged me just for being some of their colleague or what without even asking, then go on.
I have to give credit where credit is do.
You have been fighting this for as long as i can remember.
Though I do not think Stormin was ignoring you, nor does anybody else actually. But the means you go about it is, well confusing. You get bogged down in other bullshit that drags you and your message down in a quagmire of your own thoughts and perceived slights against you.
Oh well what else can I say?
I really do not feel like arguing with you now or any other time. But it will probably devolve into that.
Not worth either of our time.
See you around probably in another sniping incident.
Does it not get boring?
Or do you really get your rocks off?

Enjoy the little ditty Trite.

would you please explain the juxtaposition of being a chronic pot smoker and living on a U.S. military base (two assertions you have made, via this game)🤥
I started smoking pot 52 years ago in the jungles of Vietnam thanks to my Uncle Sammie who insisted I join him on his U.S. military base at Long Bein, Vietnam.
https://youtu.be/wk274tUt3_w?si=tpHZyb_r1k9Q_RzZ
I was referring to your post concerning moving into a stateside base, with those ageless grand children of yours … this post I mention, was before this latest incarnation of your ingame self, where in then players where more open about themselves … this would have been before your present ingame benefactor went all in, in trying to out do all others in destroying the community …
karma?
I believe you have me confused with someone else. I was 19 years old when I went to boot camp and not married. After training, I went to Vietnam. I returned after a year and a half in Vietnam and never lived in the U.S. on a military base. I didn't become a grandfather until 1999.
Of all the conversations this article would have resulted in, this was not on my bingo card.
I am truly happy for you and whatever new narrative you are using ingame, but in all fairness, if you do not do refractions, the silly things (the former statements, no longer part of the present narrative), you use to say; should, could and will be used against you … 😵💫
Please do so I am curious. Maybe provide a link to these statements I made.
When Trite and Frank end up in the same room,parlor and or. bar.
Well anything can happen.
This ison no one's Bingo card, lol.

hmmmm...
Don't even get me started on BSP
you are right. dont even start, as a matter of fact you should even delete that part of the article as well
Why, truth hurt?
Bot detection is trivially easy for Plato, he chooses not to do anything, while he's also busy doing nothing to improve the game. Yes, it's both player's and Plato's fault the game is circling the drain, but I'm not willing to put most of the blame on players.
I don't disagree but Plato has been drunk at the wheel for years now, and years ago this game was far more entertaining.
Just Plato is to blame if bots are in game.
[removed]
Not sure I completely agree, Plato is awful, we all know that and it isn't going to change so no point in discussing it. If you commit a crime and the cop doesn't arrest you, it's the cop's fault alone?
Stormin you should look at your own party before throwing stones at others about mutlis.
You call BSP hypocrites yet we have 0 bot masters in our leadership...
Also didn't you purchase your account which is not allowed in this game?
I'm well aware we have party members who own bots and I'm not for it. I don't control our party members. The party rule was none in the party or voting. To the best of my knowledge that's true. I also never bought an account. I don't spend money on this. If someone changed accounts and runs one I don't see that as a problem. But even if I did buy an account years ago which I didn't, you are implying people can't change their minds? That may be one of your core problems.
People do change their minds, but you are still attacking the wrong players by coming at BSP, we are not the bot masters.
If you really did "change" you would apologize to us, and try to work with us instead of attacking us in every article you write with no knowledge of what is going on in BSP.
I see you left EZC which means you found out what is really going on lol.
Now are going to change your article and tell the truth or keep blaming BSP?
Apply Henry's Logic (applied when he made accusation of stealing), BSP is guilty until proven innocent
Notice he doesn't say there are no bots or bot masters in BSP and
doesn't say anything a bots voting in BSP
Please man Henry, your style of argument is so emotional that once you go into the emotional layer of it, it becomes practically impossible to have a constructive argument with you… and the only choice you leave for the opposing side is that they either shut you down with bluntly and brashly pointing out the brutal / naked truth, or keep going back and forth until it gets uncivil.
And when it gets uncivil, we all know what will happen after that. Every time.
This one comment is genuinely not an attack, nor a role-playing kind of comment. It’s just to test one more time if there is possibility to have a constructive argument here.
I’d really rather keep this conversation sane and direct it towards a constructive result, rather than going through same BS we been going through last 3/4 months… So i will say my piece only one time, you either understand it or you keep doing what you do. Choice is yours.
Speaking of apologies.. I’m not gonna repeat what i already said before, and you know what it will be… (read my last article again). Maybe you yourself can start this chain of good will and good intentions, and apologize for all that you did, before expecting anybody else to do the same. (This part of the comment was the shut-down by pointing the obvious truth)
I don’t know if you realized or not that stormin is at-least trying to focus on the common issues and common grounds! (This part is genuinely targeted to help you see the objective situation as it is, and not trough your own emotional perception)
You don’t want to apologize, and think that is beneath you? That is fine too! Instead of going through the past shit, focus on the common issues now if there is still one with you… and if you see it in yourself to put emotions aside and argue with logic. (This part is to give you a solution to get you out of this emotional back and forth trap, and actually give you a reason to find a common ground with the other side).
I don’t know how to break it down simpler than that. Hope it can click something.
PS: I repeat, despite all the arguments i really have no problem with BSPs, but wrong behavior from anyone is wrong behavior.

@junkrat isn't this your original account https://www.erepublik.com/en/citizen/profile/9703244
still alive in RR where there are no multis?
Henry Junkrat's comment was about you not BSP in general
What is known about you is what you make public
Such as
when you were CP you liked ABS
When no longer involved with ABS you made charges that the person then administrating the program was stealing - but in same statement said you would apologize if proven wrong (hence my statement about your position of guilty until proven innocent
When you were recently MoD - you refused to handle ABS money or weapon and asked the person you accused of stealing to handle the ABS money & weapons
Do you still think he stole? Never saw an apology.
Also while MoD you activated ABS even though you & your party appear to be opposed to it. But not so opposed that you would refuse to activate it.
I admit I am assuming still opposed since BSP is still not supporting (with possible minor exceptions) Donation Laws - which I understand is to protest ABS - and has the effect of letting Plato keep more of our tax money
So protest ABS while supporting it? Maybe getting to be MoD is more important than the ABS protest.
Also you like to make assumptions about people with apparently no basis - stealing accusation I mentioned, your comment above about stormin buying account, oh and you saying I had a position because I was a rl Romanian (which you claimed to have "heard" somewhere).
For context - reply is to the following comment from Henry which he deleted
"Junkrat getting tired of your comments toward me and BSP, you also know nothing about us, and seems to know nothing about what is actually going on as usual, yet act like you have been here for years...
If you actually knew what was going on half of the time you might actually understand what I am saying instead of trying to poke me every chance you get.
What exactly have I done wrong?
All I have ever done in this game is help players, can you say the same?
Have you ever served the country? I have.
What makes you think you know everything about what goes on behind the scenes when you have never"
Henry yet another assumption without evidence. & where did junkrat claimed no multis in party?
And what does that have to do with his comment
In case Henry deletes yet another of his comment this is in reply to the following comment from Henry - who based on his logic is no doubt a bot master - until proven otherwise - which no doubt he can provide proof since he claimed no bot masters in BSP leadership (but again doesn't say anything about not leadership members) & since Henry believes in guilty until proved innocent he must have required all members of BSP leadership to provide proof that they are not bot masters
"@junkrat isn't this your original account https://www.erepublik.com/en/citizen/profile/9703244
still alive in RR where there are no multis?"
@super as MOD I was not required to buy weapons and was never given access to the sheet needed to update. Shef never gave up his weapons so the job of director was still his.
I never called him a thief until he told me to go f*ck myself which you seem to keep leaving out lol.
I actually apologized before being told to go f myself which you seem to forget lol.
When I was CP there was no issue found with the program and was still in use at the time.
To be honest you really should mind your business because none of this had to do with you and you seem to want to start it up again.
You seem to have this weird obsession with me where you need to comment on everything I do lol.
I will not be responding back after this because I prefer to ignore your badgering.
You could have had access to the sheet but repeatedly refused to have any money or weapons.
If you apologized then no doubt you can point to it - I'm too lazy to look for it.
And the proof that you are not a bot master?
Henry regarding your lame excuse of not having access to the spreadsheet - here are your words
Henry William French — 04/11/2024 12:15 PM
Technically I have to use a spreadsheet doesn't specify where and whos
So you admitted that as Mod you - per the ABS law that as MoD you are responsible for updating the sheet - and that if don't have access -- you state that you could create your own sheet and update it. In fact you were offered access to the existing spreadsheet - all you had to do was say you wanted it.
And more of your words
Henry William French — 04/11/2024 12:16 PM
So I can use a similar thread link to cbo to act as a spreadsheet
Then shef or whoever is buying the weapons will need to update
That part
Because I hold no weapons
And do not handle the money
So your own words counter your statement
and since it was the only point I made that you took issue with I assume you agree with everything else.
And if you want me not to comment on things you say then don't put them in public for all to see.
Man, i have nothing against you personally… nor BSP in general. Literally NOTHING! You keep giving me emotional responses here…
Which will not work anymore in the face of naked truth.
I know my comments and what i say is kinda hurtful, because it’s the truth. Try to see it as what it is, and not how it makes you FEEL!
I’m not gonna push it more than this, since you are really thinking i have something against you personally… otherwise you guys would not un-friend me and give me such emotional re-actions. Just because i comment pointing out the truth. Or having an argument?
Super Nova said all the other things.
I really don’t know anymore how can i keep having a logical argument with someone who are constantly in emotional state while arguing. Seems this “try” is going nowhere anyways…
For the record(this part is not relevant to the argument we have at hand), once again, i have no problem with nobody “personally” nor any special “party”. I just have issues with wrong behaviors and even if that behavior is mine, i try to correct it. I been playing this game on and off for +15 years, and you have literally zero clue what i did. But as of right now i can barely even find the time to manage this one.
And yes i am actively serving my small community, and the country to the best of my ability. I just don’t feel the need to say what i do/did every time i have an argument with somebody.
Super you just copy and pasted from a private channel on discord, and are not sharing all of what happened as you usually do, you started badgering me in that channel before I could even be even access to the sheet. You tried to start things up again between shef and I, as you are doing now it's kind of petty, and pathetic. All you do is try to twist my words to prove some sad point about how bad a player I am when all I have ever done is help this country and many players over the years.
This is the reason I choose to ignore you, but when you try to give only 1 point of view without sharing all of what happen you know you are going to get me to respond.
@junkrat I was nothing but nice to you since you started playing, and all you have done is comment on anything I do negatively, then think I should keep being nice or even speaking to you when you really don't know me or seem to know what is actually going on in eUSA.
You say it isn't personal, but it comes off as personal the way you come at me and bsp with your articles about things you don't know about. You act like you have been in the eusa for years and know it all, but you don't.
Do you even know what this article was really about or why stormin wrote it?
Ever think you are asking the wrong questions and as usual blaming the wrong person? lol.
If you are looking for the players doing wrong you need to look at the players some of you think can do no wrong, not players like me who actually say something to those players when they see them doing something wrong, that is why I am always on the outs with some of them so please don't talk to me about truth when you clearly have no idea what the truth is.
#Henry here is the relevant context
above you stated "was never given access to the sheet needed to update"
But per the text I quoted you admitted that you did not need access to the sheets but could create new sheet. - not to mention you were offered access to the existing sheets.
And since you love to claim missing context perhaps you would like to provide context to your statement about being told to "go f*ck myself " - what did you say/do to provoke such a response.
By the way still waiting for proof that you actually apologized. But reading your words again - it looks like you are saying sequence of events is you accused of stealing apologized and then accused of stealing again - if this is the case sounds like you are at least one apology short.
And Henry here is even more Context for you
From the eUS law on ABS
"1.04 Accountability & Transparency
The MoD is to keep and maintain a spreadsheet with the following information:
A. All money in and money out
B. All weapons in and weapons out
i. Purchases, distribution, price of purchases per unit
C. Starting balance, ending balance
D. Recipient names/links, recipient totals
E. Battle Dates, Battle rounds, battle links
F. The spreadsheet will be publicly accessible
G. Monthly report similarly timed with the monthly CBO report"
Hmm sounds like you as MoD were required to maintain the spreadsheet.
And regarding a previous statement
"When I was CP there was no issue found with the program and was still in use at the time."
To add context - no issue has been found since - although there were unfounded allegations (wonder who could have made those) and the program has been used since.
SuperSnake now you are going as far as leaking private convos from private gov channel, where I was just trying to help, while you kept hounding me trying to cause issues, how much lower can you get lol.
I tried a few times to be cool with you but every chance you got you started with me and still do even when I have you blocked lol.
This will really be my last response, I have nothing left to say to you.
You mean so low as to point out your lies & is it an issue pointing out your contrary positions on ABS and your helping Plato keep our tax money - Care to explain why no article on this great BSP crusade to oppose donations?
and to use one of your favorite words - please provide context on how you were trying to help?
And can you explain your sequence of events here
"I never called him a thief until he told me to go f*ck myself which you seem to keep leaving out lol.
I actually apologized before being told to go f myself which you seem to forget lol."
From your statement it looks like
1) "I actually apologized"
2) "told me to go f*ck myself"
3) "called him a thief "
So since you claim the apology occurred first, what were you apologizing for and where is this apology? Absent proof I can only assume it never happened.
Signed except to leave Asteria. Some things need to be said now. BSP is completely useless and otiose. Their sole purpose is to support whoever is against RR and SFP. We had friends among us who praised the HWF period. How did the huge BSP come to this situation?
In other words, BSP are turning against us because we cannot elect the president of the country. BSP are turning against us because they cannot elect a speaker of the congress Who was last elected country president from SFP? How many months passed ? How many years has it been? Despite this, who did we offend? Who did we turn against?
There are RR members who have provided great services to Asteria and our country. We see these and we support them. Well, they shouldn't vote for POTUS because they don't know us. But we don't take offense. As long as there is success, we will support Asteria as long as its rise continues.
Why does our name keeping out of your mouth as SFP PP?
Do you actually know any of us, or what happened in BSP primary this month?
All I keep seeing is BSP this and BSP that, yet we are the smallest party do we have the much influence?
The reason you keep hearing certain players in your party praising my CP run is because I did the job well, did not exclude anyone from certain parties, or didn't even mention BSP as CP, I treated everyone on my team with respect, and tried to keep them as informed as possible about the crazy amount of RWs and real wars we had going each day of my term at the time. I and other black sheep have done more for this country than you ever have so please watch who you all useless.
Look how quick you, and a few others come attacking us with absolutely no knowledge of us just an outside biased opinion of the current situation. Have you bothered to ever get to know us or just blame us for everything? Why have you never stepped up to do anything to help the country?
You call us useless among other things yet want our help?
Maybe try a different approach you might find we aren't as bad as you and others are trying to make us out to be lol.
Henry I provided reasons in my comment why you - not BSP - pointing out things you have done
& provided examples - you have not denied any of them except with a false statement & then had a problem with me providing you the context proving you made a false statement.
nothing you have stated has provided context (your favorite word)
You have repeated in multiple comments the F' comment directed to you but provided no context
what did you do that triggered such a response
And if BSP chooses to keep information secret why in the world would you expect others to factor it into their thinking.
One thing BSP congress members have done & continue to do is help Plato keep our tax money.
