I don't think your response is sufficient, to say the least, but I'll just leave it at that and bow out until after our government has formally responded.

One does wonder as well how serious the NPO actually is about its apologies (they posted one in Osiris too) when a Senator newly appointed by this Emperor is running around making comments like this

And what will be done about Senator Svezjacael, who signed this apology? One of Lazarus' terms was his removal from the Senate.

I don't think it ever makes sense not to proscribe a region in an official state of war with Lazarus. I don't care if they are some small UCR and our reaction is "meh," their citizens still shouldn't be involved here. That said, in the interest of compromise, I've removed the provision for...

I mean, a lot of people have spent a very, very long time here. But not all of them are admitted to citizenship again, because not all of them can be trusted to act in good faith as citizens. Feux, Stujenske, Funkadelia, those are just a few people who were all here for a very long time, but I'm...

"Some time now" = what I say when I don't know how long it's been, but know it's been more than a couple weeks. Point is, why the sudden interest? If you were in our shoes and someone from the NPO showed up now, would you think they were here in good faith?

I understand, but my point is that if we exempt people this time, even though these provisions expire people are still going to want exemptions next time we have to designate a region as hostile and existing citizens are involved in the hostile region. Essentially, someone will say, "We exempted...

I'm against exemptions for people who are participating in hostile entities. I think it has the dual effect of leaving us open to people who may well wish to do us harm, as well as encouraging frivolous designations of hostility because we know we can protect our friends. I realize these...

I'm curious what brings you back now, when Lazarus has terminated relations with the region you've called home for some time now.

Full support for this strong and reasonable statement. It's good to have a Delegate who stands up for Lazarus.

I think we should do one of two things: 1) We should lodge a formal diplomatic protest, as New Rogernomics has said is in the works, but it should include clear demands from the NPO similar in nature to Osiris' demands here (though not necessarily similar in detail - we should decide our own...

It will depend on what your bidding is and if I'm busy with other military commitments, but I'm possibly up for it.

For the record, I wasn't joking. I'm genuinely interested in being an endorsee as well. I also found Milo's answer to Imaginary's coup question refreshing and I now have gone from indifference to support for him being an endorsee.

For the record, because I find this honest and straightforward approach kind of interesting, I'd be down for being an endorsee too. :P

I'm fine with it if Imki decides to appoint you. Full disclosure, I'm also fine with it if she doesn't.

Aye

I've ended up voting against. I just really don't care for this theme, it seems so dry and generic. I feel like we can do better.

Nay
