HAIL ASUTRALIA !!

Good job JS !

Dude, if anyone wanted to know how much our country had they just have to hit the Country tab select Australia from the drop down menu.

Then just serch for the Reserve Bank of Australia. Everything is transparent on this game, except when money magically goes missing from out coffers to fill up players pockets like it has in the past.

You should write articles on what and where we spend to keep eAUS honest and to keep players informed who are going to maybe run for CP or other positions that way when they step into those shoes they are not king hit with all these things by suprize.

"Everything is transparent"
Tell me how much government money we have and I will give you 10 gold.

As I said a spreadsheet with expenses and balance will not be published in the media, because I find this as a sensitive information.

So your admitting that we have secret stash hidden away from the public that could easily be dipped in by players like yourself? And this is why eAUS is a dead country my friend. No one has trust for anyone, no sense of community, no sense of transparency.

Thank you for proving my point.

As i said below the eUK publishes their accounts and balance in full at the end of each month. Have done for many years now.

What can I say, when I sent a request to you for access to Cabinet Section in the forum. This is the place where cabinet members must share all kind of information. I still don't have the access and what about the other members?

Fail!

OK, now I have finished crying in the corner as you said I failed in an online game let's have a look at this.

For the approximate 3 weeks prior to your request when you could of asked for access you never did. This shows that the cabinet for pretty much to whole month was not using the forums so as I have a life outside the game I am not getting on the forums since most people don't really care about the community in keeping the records and updating the members of eAus.

I was going to the forums everyday but when there are no posts by the cabinet members like I said I have a life and I am not going waste my time if you guys are not even interested in doing your job

The time you waste for that comment = time you could give access to the cabinet members.

Nice reply bud

Access given. J, you should have approached an admin, not a 3rd party so to speak. Hugh has no admin powers there, and I've been fairly busy with RL. Secondly, the CP has had access since he became CP, and has also had the power to add his cabinet members to that usergroup... he hasn't as of yet. If you can provide me with a list of cabinet members, then I can add them 🙂

Icetek is right J sorry to say mate. Not sure how the country operates today but under the old guard even after I was Prime Minister each one passed a spreadsheet of all of the official orgs to their successor, which had readily available links on it. Besides that, anyone around the world can search for Australian orgs and see the balances.

There was a time ( eDay 2415) when we were Aurora's prio, because Macedonians found out that we have 600K currency and we can can use them for CO against them. A common player don't care if we have 400K, 600K, 800K or 1,8 mil government money. But our enemies would use those numbers to harm us.

That is a very good argument for not making information available generally.
But if cabinet members cannot get access to information confidentially - it breaks the system.
What about it Guagature? why cannot J Seemore get access to the cabinet section of the forums?

Wakaleo read above if you want an answer

How can they harm us exactly? We choose who to MPP, we choose how to spend it.

Claire is very busy at the minute but i have asked her again, but the problems like this arose in the 'old forums' as well. I know for example that it tooks weeks before the current ADF Marshall was given access to the ADF section...it took numerous PM's to the site owner when the admin (Binda) refused the request. Nicky6fingers will fill you in as he was MoD and had to file a ticket to the owner over the the issue.

As for access...the CP has the powers on the 'democratic' forums to give you access so it isn't just an issue with 'us'. Like Guag said if cabinet never bother with it anymore then we feel the vibe and do likewise.

I understand the reasoning for part one, but I cannot get behind it. What I would suggest is putting it on the forum where only Aussie Citizens can see it. Say the public gallery (if Guag did his permissions right xoxo). Rather simple compromise.

Catch up Cal, the old forums everyone went away from and started the new forums. Eventually the new forums went the way of the old where inactivity ruled and too much secret squirrel shit went on, as it was never used by the government.

I think everyone really misses the point here. When people such as Paul and Ven were doing this shit they never had an issue with updating the community and having transparency

Don't want to say it but Icey is right when he says noobs coming up need to see what the hell is going on.

Something stinks when people want to hide shit

First off, so wait we do or don't have a forum anymore? I also agree, but there is no point acting like it can't be used as a weapon of intelligence and it has been used many times (my favourite incident being the Larni/Bowen saga). IF people truly care about what the budget looks like (95% would say they wouldn't care most of the time) It is easy offering access to the information through said forum if they do or do not exist.

But not to just senators. That is just aids.

Forums? No idea, like I said earlier I gave up going on when others couldn't be bothered with it. The old ones I understood were bought back online so where people stand I don't know and I don't really care.

With the lack of any form of information coming out of the Government I would rather sit in eCanada as any form of comment made here is just taken as criticism.

If you think it is a good idea to offer the information through an access portal so people who want to know can get it, well good luck in trying to break the boys club.

The eUK releases their budget each month in full also. Transparent and their people or alliance(s) don't have an issue with it.

Does seem like another excuse to either not publish the results or keep things ''in house'' still.

Much has been done in Aus the past few months under the banner of ''sensitive information'' that is just a smokescreen for ministers not being bothered to release articles or keep people informed. You can view Australia's orgs and get a feel for the balance anyway without the MoF doing their job and producing figures or a balance.

Just had a brief half arsed look for their MoF articles - http://www.erepublik.com/de/article/former-governor-039-s-report-2416097/1/20

Thanks for sharing that!

Thank you for these comments!
I will consider all your replies as a constructive point of view. The results of this debate will be seen in the next article.

No one was attacking you, so don't think that. Good attitude tho!

Its the small details that need to change in eAUS before it can flourish into something good again, and it all starts by setting the right type of standards.
