Sad State of Affairs

Epic Thoughts
This has to be some sort of joke. The admins, in all their wisdom (or apparent lack there of) have cleared PEACE of any sort of hacking, cheating, or exploiting. Romania sits on its hands while Hungary and Indonesia continue to chew up territory and regions. And now, adding to the confusion and idiocy seen among ATLANTIS, Sweden prepares to attack Germany.
I remember when Germany decided to join ATLANTIS, and it was considered some sort of victory. Now, Sweden stands poised to force each and every ATLANTIS member state to make a decision; us or them. And this decision, being forced on everyone by Sweden, could easily see ATLANTIS split and destroyed.
I don't know what your president is thinking, Sweden. But more importantly, I don't understand what you were thinking when you voted for him. This guy is clearly not concerned about the greater good of anything, and, should this entire episode blow up in your faces, the only people to blame for it are yourselves. You'd do yourselves and the rest of the world a great service by getting him out of office as soon as possible.
At this point, Sweden is wasting both resources and time, and by attacking Germany, they are inhibiting any sort of counter offensive or shift in the momentum of the current conflict for ATLANTIS. I hope you people are ready to shoulder your share of the blame for when ATLANTIS loses this war. Because you're nation is going to be remembered as the one of the nations responsible for the defeat. People around the new world are going to suffer because of your injured pride and your lack of reason.

I totally agree. Voted. I am ready to defend Germany, but do so with a heavy heart. PEACE and Indo couldn't have asked for anything more.
Voted!
I wonder when Sweden is going to officially declare their are joining PEACE...
voted!
voted! and voted!
Why don't we skip any more War Games and go after Sweden!
@ Habaraka
They have already done it. 27 votes for attacking Germany 1 against. It will be offical in 2 hours 10 mins.
Seems like I might have upset a few Swedes when I published this same article in their media. That's a good thing in my mind; I've always enjoyed showing bullies their own true colors.
Damn Swedish. Imperialists in real life (1700's anyone?) and imperialists in eRepublik. Sad.
Just to let you know, ATLANTIS are no angels when it comes to hacking, cheating, or exploiting.
A sad day indeed. Nothing more to be said, really.
Yes tamas, but to clear PEACE of ALL charges of hacking, cheating and glitching is a bit freaking rich. We all saw how much fake gold was used by both sides in the Spano-Italian battle for Sardinia.
@Tamas; You'll never hear me make excuses for ATLANTIS. As far as I'm concerned, they're the lesser of the two evils. But they're still evil. Like N4ked Sn4ke said, though; the whole 'Investigation Day' was a laugh. Indos spent more real world currency on gold, so they're cleared of wrong doing, while other nations aren't so lucky/stupid.
Bring em on! Voted!
Stupid admins!!!
Me and my friends located to Germany yesterday, and are ready to defend our German brothers, allies of South Africa!
Now, it would be best if a large exodus to Germany starts AFTER the elections, in light of a possible PTO.
Voted !
Take it easy guys, Sweden are the good guys in this. Don't fight for Germany, they WON'T FIGHT FOR(with) US! And when (or if) we will ask for their help they'll say sure, we'll help you and rather send their troops to our enemies and help them. This kind of of people are the germans who control the country now.
P.S Global Trade Comp. watch what are you talking about admins! You forget that this is communism and will get banned for that.
Voted!
Either way South Africa is taking a stance of neutrality officially...
There are no official orders to take place for either side with our military to join the fight.
It's a lose-lose situation.
@Gabe; I appreciate the position you're in, Gabe. South Africa's future is important to me as well.
@Mario; That, good sir, is an out right lie. Few nations have suffered under PEACE like South Africa has, but Germany has felt the boot of Italians and Hungarians. I have fought with dozens of Germans on the battlefield, and they're all good folks. You need to be a lot more careful in how you present your opinion, because, the way you're doing it now is not showing yourself in the best light.
"P.S Global Trade Comp. watch what are you talking about admins! You forget that this is communism and will get banned for that. "
Are your referencing that communism is a dictatorship? Granted most implements of it have been my dictators, but it wasn't communism.. it was fascism with the government calling it communism. I'm sick of this anti-far left stuff flying around, too many people remember the cold war.
@ Dagari if you are so sick of this "anti-left stuff", go to the eUK and join the PCP. Your leftist nonsense won't work here in eSA (Anyway that has nothing to do with this article).
Good article.
I am prepared to fight for Germany.
An official note: The SADF org is not a government org and is a private citizen's organization and therefore it's statements are not the views or beliefs of the government.
As a private note: Ryan Dagari is a valued member by many here, including myself. Telling him to leave because he believes something other than you, and does nothing but defend his position (as I've not personally witnessed him attack Right Wing ideologies) and it's a really low and ignorant move to tell him to leave because he is a leftist.
Yes Ryan, communism is so cool, thats why most of the world except the economic and social superpowers like China, Cuba and North Korea have abandoned it.
Stuff basic human rights. Like the right to vote or the right to not agree with the rest of the pack.
BTT - go Germany !
Why dont you just move to North Korea, i told them yesterday already they can have you for free.
That's strange because the Romanians think they spend more which is why they think they can win through trying to blackmail the admins.
Reset all regions and make sure PEACE and ATLANTIS never exist again is the simple solution.
@Schwalbe and South African Defense Force - Ive never heard from you or said a word to you before, but because of your comment, all I have to say to you is screw off. Ignorance does not have a place here. I am not even a communist so you are pissing me off with this stuff, but I have many communist friends. I am sick of people calling our views the scourge of the world when they have never really been put in place. It makes me sad to see such a waste of your mind to go to blatant insults to me, someone who would never leave this nation despite being tempted by many.
Schwalbe...since when were Cuba and North Korea superpowers in -any- right? If not for them being supported by Russia and China (respectively), neither of them would even exist right now.
Anywho, does anyone see now why I was so opposed to throwing in our lot with Atlantis?
@Ryan ... I LIVED in the cold war. I KNOW what's that like. That's why I'm saying that about communism and it's about what I saw and felt.
The communism in his pure way it's perfect for the people, but when it's corrupted it's a big problem.
I believe that if you had lived in Eastern Europe prior to 1990 you would feel the same.
@Epic Thoughts: I didn't say that ALL the germans are like that, back-stabing, I sad "This kind of of people are the germans who control the country now"
Please read this to clarify what I sai😛 http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/why-we-should-not-fight-for-germany-805533/1/20" target="_blank">http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/why-[..]/1/20
Got another problem. Hungary has just attacked Poland. One of our allies. It appears that Brazil, Hungary and the Indo want to be the new superpower of Europe. I wonder whos gonna be next?
Damn. Thanks for the update, Kiwi. Looks like I need to head back to eSA ASAP!
