You guys should really consider reducing the time needed to wait to nationalize a corporation from 5 years to something more like 3. By that point, I'm sure you wouldn't have to worry about people joining, nationalizing, then never playing again. I mean, I've been waiting for such a long time to nationalize a massive company that is stealing many jobs from my state, and who's owner leaves my messages asking him to pull out unanswered.

Nationalizing stuff is silly. It's expensive, it won't make you any more money as a state corporation, and it makes some people mad. Just let it there and don't allow any more CEOs in.

You do realize that private corporations are good for the economy, don't you? You basically get revenue for nothing, since you don't have to micromanage the corp.

To be honest, I am in his federation. Our federation is undergoing troubled times, there are factions within, and I suspect some of them to be multi-accounts. I don't know what my next action on this will be.

Anyway to Lenin: Listen to the veterans here. They know what to do. CEOs are good for the country, as they produce more revenue. You are currently losing money. Just because you don't control something, doesn't mean its evil. They make more jobs for your little socialists in clinics, and back to schools.

To Scarlet: Once your economy gets going, have a war to find out whose better. I guess it will be a missile/air/navy instead of ground then. Anyways, keep this argument going. I find it rather amusing.

No one really cares.

Point well taken. From your experience do you think it is a good policy to Nationalize one's own state military corps?

Scarlet (Kebir Blue)

Saturday, December 18, 2010 - 10:07 pm Click here to edit this post
@Funkmaster
It is only a matter of time before my military machine is operational and I have reached the War Level necessary to attack. When my 21 days are up, I will be in possession of three slaves and have attained War Level 3. However, I predict that Mr. Josef Lenin will be unable to reach the War Level necessary for me to be able to attack him as it would require him to actually win more than one war against a C3. I doubt he could take just one C3.

@The Silverhilltrader
The official stance of the United Nations federation is irrelevant. If they support him, then this might be interesting since at least one of them might expand beyond a secured main and obtain War Level 3 (of which I am highly doubtful any of them will achieve). If they do not support him, Mr. Josef Lenin will be safe behind his secured mode and inability to achieve War Level 3.

@Psycho_Honey
He is not the federation leader, but nonetheless, I agree with your assertion.

@Blueserpent
I would actually be curious to hear an official response. :)
P.S. Check my CM name on LU.

Sunday, December 26, 2010 - 09:34 am Click here to edit this post
First, name one other n00b that I have bashed. This is clearly new, and is yet to be a habit.

Second, pompous geek? Thank you, but it almost seems like you're implying that this is a bad thing.

Third, please compare my main to yours. Your GR main is absolutely no comparison to mine, so I assume that you were referencing LU:

LUScarletWendy
Game Level91
Rank639
Score25631807
Population (M)50.0573.33
Loaned Amount (T)0257.69
Annual Profit (B)21853379


I will assume again that you are not referencing score, rank, or game level. Now, it would appear that even with massive loans your per capita profit barely surpasses mine, but I assume you are only referencing the raw $1T difference. In either case, this is not a measure of skill, but size. If country profit is the measure, you would be relying on a large population advantage and massive cash reserve to compensate for your lack of skill.

Yes Pompous geek. I went back at my countries over a month of inactivity. Many were not logged on to for more than that. And yes I was referring to my LU main. I use offworlds for evil purposes. Hence the trashed state of my countries.

Place YOUR LU main country or any of them to my main and see who is the scrub. That is where both of us have been active. There is no comparison. 2 weeks on offworlds and the result would be the same regardless of the lead you have now.

3. My score, rank, and game level are all bigger than yours. However, I'm sure population losses, unnecessary military costs, and heavy dependence on large cash reserves is a better measure of skill.

Score is dependent on level, I've been to level 13 it is expensive and unnecessary. You being at level nine is the only reason you have a higher score or rank. Score and rank mean nothing.

I make enough. I'm just not that greedy. Some pay for the clicking. I pay for the forum. The game is redundant to me at this point. The forum evolves and is worth my membership.

I make give or take 130 coins per month in my main how much more do you suppose I break my head trying to make? I don't need more I need less. I have too much money, too many damn gold coins, and too many damned countries. Perhaps I am using the forum as a clever way to find a particular use for them. Had this ever occurred to you?

Laguna, I like your attitude and the way you run your corporations.

But...I have a confession to make:

I feel a bit badly. I began to nationalize a poorly run CEO run public company some time ago. Maybe it was the moon. Maybe it was the moonshine...whatever it was, does my action hold up to scrutiny?

The guy told me before, when I threatened to do this that he did it to force investment funds to sell out. They don't seem to be selling. His answer defies logic. Well, the company is in debt and I think there is something else going on. So, after ten years of watching this perfectly good company destroy itself due to a policy of full employment and low production...I decided to click the button, and then click the next few.

I have no tax in my country. My state corps are certainly not paying the bills...rather, it's the country resources that keep me afloat. But, that public corp is giving me almost no benefit and taking up a lot of workers. If he messages me and tells me he'll increase production, I'll rescind the order...but to me, it seems like he doesn't really pay much attention.

Anyway... Ms. Psycho. I have a few state corps that you should buy. Just so we can cement this love-love relationship into an economic transition.
