The respect in which the establishment expects is to kneel before them, as they are the Gods of the game.. As for an Elder.. Would an elder play on the emotions of that yongerster just to get a laugh? If that is the elder, I would not follow or ask them for any info.. The problem is that to many nations have to much power concentrated in achieving one thing, self preservation at any cost with no accountability. Bordom runs ramped because, how much can you really accomplish after you have gotten as much profit as you can get? The next thing to do is fight, and take nations, and develop a class system. All that does is make people say that it is not worth it to play this game and pay when you can expect a nation to attack you if the gms clamp down on profit. All I am saying is that concentrating that power in the NLUO World government would produce real politics, passage of laws, sharing each others profit, and knowledge. Basically joining all nations of the NLUO into one voice through the Democratice process.. If all of us banned together, and joined all of our economies, military assets, federations, and common markets, we would not need to fight each other for more profit. We would have the profit, and would expose any wrong doing that the Gms are able to get away with because of our divisions.. But if we were united in a government of nations, and within that government we would have divisions, but would come together when threatened, and hold even the gms accountable for their actions in the shadows. That is the reality of a government of Democratic nations.. Then we would really run LU, and not be so much at the mercy of the GMS..
