Information:

Founded in March of 2007, A World Power was once one of the largest regions in Nationstates, and is currently re-building to its former glory! We as a region hold no specific political ideology, but nations organise themselves into Great Houses of likeminded individuals. 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.

More and more normal people are complaining about Gov so I think it's about time we go to a straight out vote. He has been given innumerable opportunities to stop doing whatever it is he is so good at doing (pissing people off).

This will be a vote to remove all of Govindia's access to the entire forum unless he desires to maintain his RDF access in which case I'd still be willing to make him a mask and usergroup that would allow him to continue participating in the RDF.

This would be granted on the condition that he leave all our members alone. He would be allowed one last plea for access in 3 months at which time he would have one chance to make a strong argument for why he should be allowed to participate fully in AWP again. if this plea is not satisfactory and if he had annoyed and pestered members of the region he will be IP banned and his nations removed from the region.

This is a simple AYE/NAY/Abstain vote. If anything skewing seems to have happened the senate will also hold a vote on whether to ban him, if not they will simply vote whether to confirm this process or not.

Gov has been given more than a fair chance to stop pissing people off. He will complain and ask "what has he done" and the answer is simply: "you're annoying"

why that is... I don't know... but you are and there is nothing we can to do change that.
The bestest guy you ever new about!!!

Strong Aye, he doesn't learn his lesson and doesn't understand when people are trying to help him. I personally am fed up with him arguing with me and trying to get me to get people to talk to him. I am also fed up with him being unable to control himself with others who make derogatory posts spending time replying to them rather than helping himself (in numerous ways I have suggested).

Please, stop this nonsense right now.

I am not to blame for all of whatever issues are occurring repeatedly.

I have been trying to be active in foreign affairs and defence.

I've recently started doing some recruiting.

People keep attacking me and pushing me because they don't like me for the stupidest of reasons.

Ranholn keeps pushing me every way he can until I get removed, and nothing gets done to stop his behaviour.

Other people keep attacking me or mocking me in areas and nothing gets done about thiem.

Sedge keeps banning me from the #rdf channel on IRC for no logical reason and nothing gets done about it.

I got terminated from my job last week.

I am trying to find a new job.

I also have been dealing with RL family issues.

I have a lot of RL stress in my life that's frustrating me a lot.

I do not need people disrespecting me and pushing me because of petty squabbles they had with me from last year and no one does anyhting about them.

Instead, I am to be blamed for everyone's problems when I haven't even been active enough.

There is only so much poking I can take while people stand by and do nothing before I snap.

Seriously :(

Playing the simpathy card is almost as bad as playing the race card it will get you no where and make this worse, you are in a world of shit, Gov, and their is only one person you can blame for that, yourself.

AYE, no matter the situation or reason, I can't get over how quite a few of us tried to help him NUMEROUS times and he hasn't taken our advice. He didn't really acknowledge us or try something different as to what he has been doing.

It is so blatantly obvious that no one likes him and some of us may have attacked him, but others have merely tried to explain to him the situation and make the change for the better and that didn't work either. He obviously isn't listening to anybody else and wonders why nobody likes him.

Fair enough, I think we can all see that, but being active there, when at the same time pissing everyone off, it doesn't get outweighed.

That's superb, yet still not related to how you act on here.

Stupid to you doesn't mean its stupid to us. It's not your perception of yourself that we're contemplating here, it's how your actions affect those here. In my own mind, I am the best person alive, but to others, I'm an offensive ass who eats too much. I don't have any right to tell others what to think of me, which you have pretty much insisted on doing through countless post's like this, just not as lengthy.

You may be right... MAY be right... but he leaves every once in a while when he senses he's pissing a bunch of people off. He come's back, after some time, and all is good. He senses when he's pissing people off and he backs off, you don't. You just deny, and tell others I'm fine, its your fault.

So should we ban all of them, or remove the central issue?

I feel very sorry for you, and I truly mean that. Finding work in the states right now is tough. But don't come here and make us the problem.

I sympathize with you, we all have problems, some greater than others, but we're not the stress ball you should choose to exercise. Instead find a RL person to sort those issues out, instead of carrying the frustrations over

Look up, and the same answer applies.

Then if nothing is being done about it, leave, and quit surrounding yourself with people you know do not want to associate with you.

You just mentioned above that you're more active in defense and FA. When you're the common denominator to most of people vs people squabbles then yeah you kinda are half to blame. Its easy to get rid of 1 than like 9 or 10 people. Erase the common denominator, and the equation ceases to exist, thus the problem goes away.

Seriously sad.gif

Its sad that it even has to come to this. If everyone hated me, I would have never come back. I smoothed over the relationships that needed smoothing, and have decided to stay not seeing an outpouring of hatred towards me. But if everyone hated me, and I still refused to leave whether its pride or principle, then I am only going to add to the RL stress and problems like what you seem to be going through. You'll be 10 times better off if you choose to leave, than if you're forced out. All in all, since you worry a lot about what's going on in here and in your RL, you should take some time away from this game and region, and focus on your RL issues, take one thing away from the stack of things that are on your mind, I did, and it felt great coming back down the road, and I have enjoyed my last month here.

Fixed. :hilarious:

But seriously too many complaints against a single person and he doesn't realise he is the problem, not everybody else. There does come a time when you need to take a look at what you are doing to other people and when NOBODY likes what you are doing then plain and simply you have to change your ways.

AYE

Sorry gov but if your life reasons are so bad this is actually affecting my vote, you shouldn't be using your time arguing with people over the internet you don't know who are not affliated to you in real life instead of finding a job, focus on that all the time.


And.... you know... I have given you a few options, other than quit, then the option to quit when I knew this would happen, as it has.

Nail. Head. Direct hit...

I have nothing against Gov in real life and I wish him all the best in finding a new job but Pulangi has got it dead on for me, he's caused issues and despite posts and posts of sensible advice from Biain, Greek, Pulangi, Liberty, in fact most of the people in the region he has consistently ignored it and shown no signs of improvement. Rightly or wrongly the way Govinda has acted in AWP has got on the wrong side of people and despite all our best efforts I just can't see any inkling that this is going to change and so, for the best of the region, and as Liberty stated, for Govinda's own good in terms of prioritising his time into looking for new work or perhaps building up new skills that can get him a better job, I vote AYE.

Sure we will say now being that Gov has agreed to go on sabbatical for a few months anyway. His mask will be updated to give him the appropriate access rights.
