War is terrible without reason. Speaking purely out of character, war sucks. It sucks to know that since I have been born, I have never known an America that has been fully at peace. However, in character as Svipjoth, we only declare war if we have proper reason to, or as fancy latin puts it, a "casus belli".

Hello, and let me be the first to welcome you to the Frosty lands of Wintreath! While you're here we hope that you enjoy yourself, but also keep in mind that our RMB has a few guidelines. Nothing too serious mind you, we just want to make sure that everyone here in the region has as equally a great time here as you, so there are some rules we have to throw out to ensure that we're keeping the peace and chill vibe of the region.


.
Please don't Double Post/Triple Post/Quadruple/etc post.

I know, there's always some more that we may want to say in a post that you didn't say the first time, and simply posting again is quick. However, it also adds unnecessary clog to the RMB, especially when it's one person posting 5 times with a single sentence or word.

If you have more that you wanted to add (or wanted to reply to someone), simply hover your mouse over their/your message (or tap it on mobile). On your message, you'll see something like this pop up:

Which will allow you to tweak what you want in your message, add anything else, and pop it back up. If you do this over another's message, you'll see the noted Quote button as well as the Like button. Simply hit Quote, and copy everything that appears in the text box below. Proceed to edit your message in the way mentioned above, press Enter to give yourself new space, paste the copied text, hit enter again, and type in your new message.

If you already double posted, please delete your second post. On the above screenshot, notice where at the end it says "DELETE." If you double posted, click that button on your second post. This goes for if you triple/quadruple posted as well...delete all but your first message.

Yes this is all extra effort when you can just post again, but double/triple/quadruple posts will be suppressed and members warned, no exceptions, even if you apologize for the second post.

Also keep in mind that using your puppet(s) to post right after your original post is still considered double posting.

.

Short and Sweet is the way to Be

Let's face it, sometimes we have a lot to say, or we want to RP something that is considerably long, or we really want to share something we wrote in our factbooks on the RMB.

And all of this is completely okay if done correctly.

Spoiler Tags are your friend
If you're posting something longer than 2 paragraphs of 5 sentences each, or 1 paragraph that hits over 7-8 sentences, there's a very handy feature known as Spoiler tags. They trim any post you make inside of the tags down to the size of a tiny box, which folks on the RMB will thank you for.

the command for spoilers is

[spoiler]Insert the text you want to say here[/spoiler]
Or if you want to let someone know what to expect, the beginning part can be
[spoiler= insert title here] insert conversation post here[/spoiler]
But remember to also keep that title short and sweet and to the point. As an example:

See Spot Run
Spot runs fast!
Spot sees a cat!
No Spot, no!
Spot ran away. :(

Factbook/Dispatches can/should be linked only
So you want to share this factbook/dispatch you made, great! But the problem is that these tend to be pretty lengthy unless they're something such as general announcements, so copying and pasting the entire thing is usually not recommended on the RMB. The last thing we want to see is an RMB full of random dispatch/factbook entries in their entirety that people copy and pasted. Instead, let people have the option whether or not they want to read it.

Which means, copy and paste the link to your dispatch/factbook rather than the entire post. You may be asking, "Where do I find the right link to post?" And that's a great question. Once you've originally posted your factbook/dispatch, you'll be redirected to the new area with it in which you'll see these links, depending on whether it's a factbook or dispatch post:

Each link will have a unique ID number at the end for each post. So just copy that entire link for the dispatch/factbook entry you want to share, and simply paste it in an RMB post. When you do that and post, it'll show up as a snippet in the RMB:

That way, it doesn't throw out a potentially exceptionally long post, and people who may not be interested in your personal nation workings aren't having to read through it if they don't want to.

But this also doesn't mean to start throwing out Factbook/Dispatch links willy nilly, because we also don't want an RMB clogged with preview links. Keep the nation news/info/tidbits to important things that people outside might want to know. If you're going to do a national newspaper, feel free to be like "A new edition of (insert news publication here) is out!" if it's a daily thing or even more often type of thing (though weekly/bi-weekly/monthly/bi-monthly/yearly) linking to national newspaper dispatches is totally fine).

Just do your part to keep the RMB clean, short, and sweet. The amount of space on the RMB is very limited, so we just want to ensure that everyone can be seen and heard rather than being overshadowed by unnecessarily long (and sometimes overall unnecessary) posts.

.

When Quoting someone, follow this thought process:

Does it contribute to the conversation? Is your reply to a quote something to bring more responses? Or is it simply quoting someone and saying "Lol" or "Okay" or something equally unneeded? If it falls into the latter, maybe re-think your quote.

Is it to the point?: In other words, are you grabbing an entire quote and responding to all of it? Or are you responding to a specific area? If your answer falls into the latter, consider quoting but breaking it down into multiple quotes with just the line(s) that you want to respond to, rather than using the entire quote if it's a long one.

Do I need the whole quote? In other words, is it that aforementioned long quote? Do you really need to display the whole thing again, especially if the quote is directly above you? The answer to this is usually a hard no. If you want to respond to a post in its entirety, you can do what's suggested above, but also cut everything but the last line in that long quote, putting ... before the text (IE "...In other words, do it this way") so that we know you're responding to the person as a whole. This does not apply to if the quoted post is in Spoiler tags, as those will hide the entire post within a small box until clicked. If this is the case, you're more than welcome to quote without edit since length isn't an issue (since regardless of length, it's all hidden from view until clicked). But if you're responding to parts, you can still grab those specific parts to quote separately to.

Do I even need to quote at all? If you're simply wanting to get someone's attention to talk to them about something, use the Nation pinging tool (the black flag next to Underline) and avoid quoting. Don't do this to ping-spam continuously as nobody likes seeing a bunch of unnecessary notices either. Also, if someone is double posting, please don't quote their second post/third post just to tell them not to double post. A mod will get on it and warn them appropriately and/or suppress their post/ask them to delete it. If you're going to mini-mod against double posting (which we ask that you don't do), just use the [nation] [/nation] tags to ping them.

Is the post I'm quoting suppressed? If the answer is yes, don't quote it. Posts are suppressed for a reason for breaking one of our RMB rules (whether it be double post/spammy/inappropriate). If you quote a suppressed post, your post will also be suppressed and you will be warned not to do it again. If you quoted the person before their post was noticed and suppressed because you're telling them not to do something you know is about to face suppression, please delete your post and refer to the above box on "Do I even need to quote at all?" If you quoted the person before suppression otherwise, your post will be suppressed, but you won't be warned (unless it was a blatant rule break in terms of inappropriate content that you're quoting, in which case we will say something).

.

Please Keep the RMB Spam Free

This speaks for itself, but this isn't something we need to see clogging the RMB.

Spam includes, but is not limited to:
*Double/Triple/Quadruple+ posting as mentioned at the beginning

*Post counting, making animal sounds, and saying non-conversation drivers ("I like eggs!"), in an effort to "random" or "revive the dead chat." This includes back and forth spamming by more than one member in this regard.

*other spamming behavior not mentioned here such as a two-member-only continual back and forth in a quick amount of time (when TGs exist) that will be at the discretion of the Regional Moderators/Monarch.

Please keep the RMB lively by engaging conversations, not spam (the only exception to this being if it's a Welcome-Squad/Mod-Sanctioned RMB game happening).

.

Please keep it Friendly

This is a region of folks of different beliefs, orientations, and other various walks of life. Please be respectful of those differences, and be a friendly and positive force in the region. This means that if a member says something that you don't personally believe, don't chime in with why they're wrong or laugh at them for their beliefs, call them names (aka going into Flaming territory), or anything of that matter. Just literally don't say anything and move on to a different topic. An exception to this is a friendly debate which is allowed so long as it's kept civil (see "Keep politics civil, or keep it out.").

Just be a cool person. Be friendly. Be kind. Don't be a jerk.

Keep in mind that as stated in the politics section of this RMB Etiquette, Wintreath absolutely does not condone beliefs/views that are hateful or advocate violence towards an individual/groups. This does not mean to engage said person that has those bad beliefs, and in fact it is asked that you immediately disengage and let an RO know on here or Discord, or to submit a General Help Request (linked at the bottom) if it's serious enough to require NS mod intervention.

.

Please don't Mini-Mod.

In other words, moderating what folks do when you yourself are not a moderator. We've got our regional officers plus the delegate to watch over the RMB and make sure the rules are being enforced. As much as we appreciate folks stepping in, we ask that you please refrain from mini-modding and telling folks what to do.

If you see someone breaking a rule: Please refer them to this RMB guide, or ping one of the regional officers (assuming none are on at the moment) to let us know if it's something inappropriate that needs to be addressed. If it's serious enough, please refer to the final section on filling out a GHR so that NS mods can step in. If it's something like Double posting/spam, please don't ping the regional officers unless it's continuous (IE hitting past the quadruple posting levels)...otherwise we'll suppress/warn the moment one of us sees it.

In short: Be a helper, not an enforcer since we already have enforcers in our Regional Officers. Be less "Don't double post/spam /Double posting/spamming isn't allowed." and be more "Hey just as a heads up, you might want to check out this guide (insert link to this RMB guide) since it shows you how to edit your posts so that you don't have to post again."

.

If you Roleplay, follow the rules of RP and keep it appropriate.

The following behaviors are frowned upon in roleplaying:

Godmodding: Taking control of another's character without the person's consent. In other words, not giving them a chance to decide how their characters respond to situations and instead enforcing it yourself.

Overpowering Characters: Conjuring force-fields to avoid any attack at any time, teleporting out of any incoming danger at the blink of any eye, sending hundreds to thousands of nukes at a player (despite not realistically having these) are forms of this. Nobody likes RPing with an OPer, so don't do it.

People in these two categories will be kindly asked to stop, and may face a ban from participating in RPs on the RMB for a set amount of time.

Inappropriate/Controversial RP characters/practices: Roleplaying as a controversial character in history such as Hitler, roleplaying about how you kill children and make them into "Children nuggets."(or kids/babies killing and being killed). Engaging in sexual areas despite us being a region of all ages. None of these are okay in the slightest, and those involved will be met with anything from a warning to a permanent ban from the region depending on the severity. Keep it appropriate and PG, please.

.

Keep politics civil, or keep it out.

While political discussions are allowed in the RMB, please keep it civil and impersonal. If you feel like you're getting upset or are about to get heated/impassioned, it's asked that you step back and take a breather to get yourself back to that calm before you re-engage...or drop it entirely. Debates should not turn into echo chambers of people ganging up on someone for their beliefs/opinions, nor should it turn into a grudge match of why you're right and why they're stupid for not having the same opinion as you. If you can't keep your cool, you may be warned and potentially banned from debating on the RMB for a set time, or potentially banjected from the region if it hits flaming territory depending on the severity.

Also, these are the views that we closely monitor and can be considered an absolutely no area that we'll ask you to stay away from depending on the severity of said viewpoint as well.

>Views that are blatantly anti-LGBTQ+, Racist, Xenophobic, Sexist, or other forms of discrimination or hatred towards a group of people (which includes religion as well as the infamous ACAB statement). You're allowed to have an opposing viewpoint on certain areas, but the minute you engage in hate speech/hateful views (IE: (insert target group) should go back where they came from!" and "(insert target group) should be lined up and shot!") You're threatening your continued time in the region.

>Views that speak of hate groups such as Nazism in a positive light or praise figures who have advocated such ideals such as believing certain groups/people are inferior/lesser and deserve to die/be subservient to them. This one is non-negotiable, and anyone expressing positivity towards groups such as this that advocate such ideals may be instantly banjected from the region.

>Behaviors that border into flaming such as calling someone a Liberal Snowflake/Republican Trash or calling someone a nazi/fascist/"Commie" just because you disagree with them. These hit our "no flaming" rule, and will be dealt with on that level.

>Other problematic/controversial views that have not been listed here but may be determined by the Monarch/Regional Moderators.

.

Abide by the rules of Nationstates, as well as common rules for the forums

Things that are absolutely not tolerated are:

*Flaming: Personally attacking a member with insults and name calling.

*Flame-baiting: Calling someone out and posting content purely with the intention of setting them off, such as overly sarcastic responses in a heated debate. Quite simply, it's as the name suggests: Baiting someone with your words to drive them to flame you.

*Trolling: Similar to flame baiting, posting contrary opinions/topics that will get a negative rise out of people for the "Lolz" occasionally also considered "Edge-posting," it's overall just not cool.

such behaviors may very quickly shorten your time here in Wintreath depending on the severity.

.

Please don't discuss Nationstates violations such as accusations of rule breaking on the RMB.

Think someone hacked your nation? Is a known Delete on Sight (DOS) player in our region? Is there a player breaking established Nationstates rules of etiquette?

DO report them to Nationstates moderators via A General Help Request in the off chance they didn't see the offense already (They're good at that).

DONT gossip about it in the RMB or take it upon yourself to investigate in any form.

If you're unsure of how to fill out the GHR, let a Regional Officer know so they can take care of it.
.
If anyone has questions about anything read here, they're encouraged to reach out to either the founder/reigning monarch or one of the current Regional Officers who are always more than happy to clarify.

Read dispatch

We try to keep it simple and I try to offer alternatives and solutions to avoid breaking the etiquette, because I definitely don't like being a finger wagger without offering some friendly guidance. :)

Thank you so much! This community is absolutely delightful!

St. Marianberg Port, Pallata
Date: June 13, 1854

"How are the new aircraft carriers going along?" Louis asks one of the chief shipbuilders. "Aah!! I didn't expect you would be here, Your Majesty. And in such...plain clothing." He replies. "Well, here I am. Anyways, you haven't answered my question." Louis shrugs and says, tipping the tricorne he was wearing.

"The Peter the Great and Mary the Great are nearly done, we only need about two to three months to finish them." Chief shipbuilder Mikhail Gadero chirps confidently. "I've also seen some of your blueprints for the ships...why do they look so different than native designs?" He continues.

"I've been making a few trips abroad every now and then, learning new customs and discovering new ways to do things." Louis calmly answers. "For example, most of our plane tenders used one flight deck on top of another. A woefully inefficient design. So I used instead an enclosed hangar design with compressed steam catapults." He continues.

"That's cool and all, but where are we going to get the aircraft for the carriers?" Mikhail asks. "I've thrown the idea to the wolves of the military market: the defense contractors. I've heard some of them have come over from The Ursian Empire and set up shop here. It seems they only care for money." Louis replies.

"I'll be going back to getting the Naval Aviation Service up and running." He continues and smiles.

"And if anyone attempts to sabotage the construction of our two newest carriers, kill them without hesitation." Louis sternly orders.
