Since post 58 this thread went wrong, so ok, here is its true intent. Thx again for your time.
Hello.
This a topic intended to inform sim citizens of a few misconceptions of NULO and the injustices that are employed in undermining sincere efforts to get this movement off the ground.
At first. I really didn't care much for the Idea. In time I had come to realize that in fact it was a great IDEA at the very least. Many Vets would say that this is terrible. It is meant for King to rule the world with its devices. Its evil incarnate and so on.
Actually this is nowhere near having any truth in it. Those kind of statements are the Vet establishments attempts to remain in a shadow ruling coalition that dominates the SC landscape.They wish t retain power and keep it in place so that no one will be able to change what is already in place.
Under normal circumstances, I would say that what is in place does in fact work. But it is much more complicated than that. There are way too many double standards that apply. For instance, a vet, in his military hat, would boldly do something that is taboo for a new player to do. Yet the establishment will hold new players accountable and appease the veteran. There have been instances where where the double standard is exposed and then the vet, counting on relationships with other vets, will fabricate justification for such blatantly wrong action.
Do not confuse what I am saying. I have had good and bad experiences with new and vet alike. Most Vets are very helpful, willing, and able to be very humble and key to new player development. But Heaven forbid a player cross paths with a player who is a vet, and exchange insult for insult on the forum. Or simply not immediately bow in obesiance to a veterans threats of unjustified action, when things could be averted through other means. When this happens, a more powerful player will almost always dominate the new player, which is exactly why this kind of action is not even necessary to avoid adverse consequences to either party.
The NLUO if implemented, would consist of 144 members. Individuals, not empires, but presidents that would reflect a larger portion of LU. And accurately reflect the community as a whole. Implementing policy to better avert large scale wars which have been waged. And not continue such wars without being held in lieu of the community having a working in any process regardless if it be peace and/or war.
Many will come out against this IDEA and say adverse things about it, based purely on negative bias, or selfish motives. The reason in my eyes that an elite group of vets disagree with this based purely on unjustified hunger and appetite for power, is that a coalition of nations would threaten to overrule the few powerful voices and have an opposition of majority decision that could one day drown out powerful in favor of the many. This kind of decision making need be made especially in times of conflict to stop wars that only a few wish to perpetuate while the community grows tired. I am saying this without prejudice, because ATM I indeed without going into rhyme or reason am one of the ones that wishes to continue in blood wars, so I am indeed showing how this kind of organization of parties would even sometimes disagree with myself, and hold me even accountable. Not just those who are at odds with me.
If and when it is completed as an organization it would stand to give every one on LU voice to be heard, and give weight to the voice of community. Not just the powerful few.
There are many vets, but true power, rests on a very elite group of a few of them, and they are indeed active in executing the issues of retaining such power. We all know absolute power IS corrupt. And to resist the checking of corruption is to show true intentions of the corrupt forces. They indeed reveal themselves as the ones in power, willing and able to be corrupt.
NLUO looks forward to listening to the concerns of any interested members of LU. Please refrain from basing rebuttals based purely on personal issues and petty arguments that will ruin this discussion. I thank the level heads in advance. Any is welcomed to comment even Q
