Final Destination: The Grey Wolf Party
Releasethe Krakken
I see that there is some articles recently polling for more members.
Just remember that in the end all roads lead to the Grey Wolf Party!
but why do you ask?
Its simple when your finally fed up with jostling for position and playing political tricks you will seek a home where the players involved just want to speak their mind and frankly don't care about left or right orientation.
We life now in a very advanced society. Not every socialist change was brought about by socialist. But on a game level there cannot be left or right. If one for example want to pass out free food is it to feed the hungry. No it is to bring about a small change to players by giving them extra energy.
There is an engineer I have read about. What he started believing in is that a single person must leave as little footprint on the world as possible. Therefore he life with his mom and brother in a massive house but is constantly trying to feed himself from his own produce and developing alternative methods of energy. If he actually comes up with something I am certain all of the socialist in the world will try and claim that its was driven by some kind of socialist idea.
But is is not about politics. Exploring food production and alternative energies etc is a new field that is a developing science rather than the pursuit of some political ideology.
Therefore when you seek out a home for your political ambitions remember that this is a game will applying socialist ideologies brings us more food and money I think far less than good old capitalist ideas and concepts. They also try and tie in their endeavors with some kind of historical figure. To which I say that's just bollocks!
So rather join a solid party where its about the pursuit of a greater eIreland!
We are small. But its not about the size of the party its about joining a group of dedicated players. If we can recruit enough players we can compete just as strong as the current top dogs. But what we wont be doing is the fake stuff. personally I give a hoot about some historical figure unless I can take what he learned in his endeavors and apply it here. Take for example John D Rockefeller ruthless and mean but probably one of the best strategist out there, you counter him here he will run right through your plans and cut you to size and end you. Our strategies flew out of the window with CUA. When Plan A failed there was no plan B
We must return to working on strategies about the other stuff as well such as economics. Therefore the grey wolf party will have an open debate on ways we should improve eIRELAND once we are a factor. And we can only be a factor if players start thinking in a freer fashion about this game. For example every day you wait for a hand out is just not a good strategy when you can easily become self reliance. Every time you disregard a smaller party just because they are small and you want a shortcut for government remember in the end you will have accomplished nothing. The imprint you left on the party will be nothing whereas in a smaller party people are more likely to listen to your ideas and you can actually create an environment where in the end you can be proud of your contribution.
What are we about?
As stated in our mission statement The Grey Wolves is a nationalist party, dedicated to an United eIreland. We are for the introduction of young players to government in a controlled manner and for the formation of strong policies towarda a greater eIreland. BE A PART OF THE FUTURE!
But what do we offer for the older player? Have you become fed up with your current party! Tired of seeing the same old faces. Yes you are not the most outspoken person but does this mean you should not be a part of government ! Or do you just want to explore that part of the game now! Yes truly we want to create an open based party where even older players can find a home.

Your articles are always kind of weird. You made a really good point about left and right wing being RL ideas erroneously super-imposed on eR... and then you, seem to me at least, to apply RL right-wing rhetoric to in-game concepts.
When I say rhetoric I just mean that the phrasing is very right-wing, but the conclusion isn't built on a foundation of game mechanics so far as I can see.
i had to run when i wrote this. actually i think if you consider capitalist ideas as right wing then it applies more to the game than would socialist ideas. perhaps someone can explore it that is a philosophy student in some kind of article.
Eh, communes are central to the economy as a means of war production, I think it's safe to say that socialist economics apply more to the game than capitalist ones do in terms of the market.
The debate isn't erroneously superimposed, there is a debate to be had on the economy and its preferred mode. In general terms, the left v right in eRepublik isn't the same as RL, but the distinction can exist.
I didn't say there isn't a debate to be had on the economy, only that comparing our options to real life ideology isn't helpful.
Without context, certainly, the imposition of RL terms is not helpful, yes.
My feeling is that the amount of context outweighs the usefulness of the RL terms. In many case Left/Right are just misnomers that polarize new comers before they even know what's going on.
its misplaced one of the greatest socialist of all time was fidel castro. castro guy is a genius(first in every class) but now is considered oppressive. in fact i challenge you to present me with one socialist government that is successful and where there is no serious limitations to their human rights. china but tutankamen square?
eCommunism isn't the same as communism.
Not to slam on your context, but the way you write confuses me an awful lot.
tThe engineer paragraph was confusing and seemingly misplaced.
"They also try and tie in their endeavors with some kind of historical figure. To which I say that's just bollocks!" "Take for example John D Rockefeller ruthless and mean but probably one of the best strategist out there, you counter him here he will run right through your plans and cut you to size and end you."
so john d strategies would have a place here some guy that prevented TB not. What I also said is that socialist has a tendency to attribute everything good that happens in the world to them forgetting all the oppressed citizens under a socialist government. lets say that guy invented a solar panel of a square meter that provided enough energy for a house then the socialist would go and say look what this socialist did. the idea that one should not l;eave a massive footprint is a scientific idea not a socialist idea for example read Beginning Hydroponics: Soilless Gardening by Richard E Nicholls in it he says the average farmer uses about 5 times the units of energy that he produce.
I fail to see where I mentioned my article and its merits over yours.
You completely misread my comment.
I'm pointing out the flaws in your style of writing, not your content.
you then placed an explanation of socialism and again, used a misplaced example.
I wasn't criticising you personally, hoping you would see your own flaws and improve on them.
And if I was to choose between someone who saved possible millions of the lives of human beings or a philanthropist who furthered capitalism almost indefinitely. I would choose the doctor 99/100. Please show him some respect and don't call him some guy who cured TB, the same way I would never call you some guy who doesn't write incredibly coherently. Your arguments are odd and incoherent at best.
Also while I'm at it, your judgement on columbia was mean and unfair.
lol dont take it so personal i just dont see why there is a competition focusing on one branch of politics as after all its just a game. also as pointed out in your own article when he introduced the measures to limit tb he was on the right and the proposal was voted in by a predominantly right wing parliament. since this is the one outstanding accomplishment you mention it actually is kinda moot and ill researched. the left wing stabbed him in the back twice and he was never raised to the same political heights when he was on the left.
A White Paper report on health had been prepared by the previous government, and resulted in the Health Act, 1947. In February 1948 Browne became Minister for Health and started the reforms advocated by the paper and introduced by the Act. and also factually incorrect as he just took work that was previously done and implemented it.
or anyway even if he was left the "republican" confused me he just implemented an old proposal.
ty wolf just to finish i dont want to debate left vs right politics all i basically said is that socialism and all leftist ideologies is not the basket of roses you purported it to be. this is more of an ad type article and I quite liked it. if it is not perfect who gives a fook.
Rockefeller spent the last 40 years of his life in retirement. His fortune was mainly used to create the modern systematic approach of targeted philanthropy. He was able to do this through the creation of foundations that had a major effect on medicine, education, and scientific research.[7] His foundations pioneered the development of medical research, and were instrumental in the eradication of hookworm and yellow fever.
You still don't understand my previous comments.
The yellow fever epidemic of 1793 in Philadelphia, which was then the capital of the United States, resulted in the deaths of several thousand people, more than nine percent of the population.
I have hereby changed the subject.
Anybody who wants to join is welcome. 😉
I hate debating so will leave it at that: all we are basically saying is join our party : D
