The leaders of the three largest Houses form a Triumvirate which is responsible for leading the region. We believe in open elections for all citizens of our region and operate a one of the major defender forces in the game, which protects regions across Nationstates from invasion.

No the goal is to ban someone, and I will do what ever it takes to have that happen

No if it was someone would be banned by now.

Oh and I wasn't talking about your goals, but the regions. It's obvious what your goal is.

No, it was Ranny and Gov but now it seems that everyone else has a problem with Gov now.

You mean a good portion of the active members here not everyone.

No, ranholn. I am sorry but I am going against you.

AWP is meant to be a fun friendly place, but since you came back, properly, we have seen a sharp increase in arguements.

We have seen a great, old, respected legend of the region come back, then leave due to you mostly. So bloody what if Govindia is annoying you should still be kind towards him and not disrespect him. He didn't want to be abused by you did he.

Now shut up about Govindia, everyone, unless he comes back. If so I take back everything I say.

There should be no reason for anyone to be banned simply to make everyone get along. In a workplace you'll be expected to at least be civil with everyone, if you can't do that, and can't do likewise on here then the hard truth is that you have to learn to and fast or you're always going to have problems. We've had some immensely annoying people in this region before without them ever getting into an argument with anyone, I don't know whats changed.

Theres absolutely no reason why anything in this game should make you angry enough to swear at people, throw personal insults or act in such a way. A normal person can have disagreements without it coming to cursing, childish remarks, personal attacks or underhand insults. If anyone finds themselves resorting to this then they should focus on learning general communication and social skills or it'll come back to bite them either here or in real life.

Not sure what you mean by come here properly, my activity on the forum hasnt changed in well over 6 months exept for when I was on vacation in june-july. Probly hasnt changed in nearly a year to be honest.

What has changed is Govindia level of activity. He has been rude to me, constantly, I did try respecting him, defending him, and treating him with respect, he rewarded me with spitting in my face, So I wont. I will treat him like the scum he is

WELL SAID.

I will admit to losing my temper on occasion. But I TRY to keep it in check. 'going off' on someone verbally (textually? whatever) rarely accomplishes anything positive.

That post has Zero logic behind it.

I'm not sure what you're getting at Pulangi. I'm of the opinion that Govinda's brought every bit of ill will from this community down on himself. He's also caused two respected members to leave. Now you can bicker all you want about "well I guess they really didn't love the region," but the fact is they're gone.
So people can either stop being so f'ing PC about this issue and face the very real matter at hand, or they can continue to make themselves feel better by pretending they're above everyone else. Your choice.

No, sorry Liberty. It's my opinion that Govinda has lead to a rise in arguments, not Rany.

EDIT-

Things are tense all around at the moment. Hurling insults isn't going to make things any better. So please, try to be civil. If someone does attack you without provocation regarding a Govinda discussion, please contact the members of the Senate's Ultimatum Watch Committee (AmericaXL, American Vampires, and myself).
This has been the voice of fate. Goodnight.

Govindia hasn't caused two respected members to leave. Once again, it seems to me like he's the scapegoat for eveything wrong in AWP right now.

Sorry Ten Stars, NeanBear did admit that Gov was the reason he left. Also, Rucket was known to have a very strong dislike of Gov. As for the calibre of members they were, well they both did more then their fair share in getting this community off the ground (as did Rany, IMO).
There is a lot of ill will coming Gov's way at the moment, and I'll admit that some of it may be unjustified. Still, well, he really has no one but to blame but himself. If he wants it to go away he can stop arguing with everyone, stop creating conflict, and become a model AWP citizen. If he does that I guarantee you a lot of the bad things he has done (and he has indeed done and caused some unfavourable things) will be forgiven. It's up to Gov to make that first step and reform though.

I never said I liked Gov either. Rucket even said that it was both Gov AND RANNY that caused him to leave. Not all conflicts stem from Govindia. And we're better off without Neanqueer IMO...

Ok. Watch it. Insulting others like that is NOT cool.
Furthermore NeanBear has done perhaps more for this region then any other member. At the very least he's in the top three. You may not like him personally, but he was a tremendous asset to the region.

As for Rany and Gov, Rucket disliked Rany's handling of the Gov situation. Had Gov not aggravated Rany to the extent that he did, there wouldn't have been anything to annoy Rucket. Rany isn't blameless (and he has received his due punishment), but in my opinion, Govinda was the instigator in the situation that lead to Rucket leaving.

Neanbear left before the Gov situation got big. In fact when he was leaving he said he lost interest here. He just got to involved in another region. I think him leaving was stupid, and I don't know why he left and said it was gov. And if gov did get banned he would not come back. Nean barely even knew Gov, he just heard about situation in the FRA about him

I can't find the thread, but others can vouch Neanber said that he had lost interest in our region and he was leaving, and resigned. Well before Gov even made a peep, he just wanted to hop on the Gov hating bandwagon on behalf of other people who hate him.

I'm not going to get into "what his real intentions were," because honestly, no one can answer that.
What I do know, however, is that any Gov hate he may have been trying to "represent" is well deserved, and that Ten Stars' "Neanqueer" comment was out of line.

OK. That's exactly my point. Calling Neanbear a name is horrible, but calling Govindia is perfectly acceptable?
