New parties ignoring RP history- A question

[SelucianCrusader]

Eh, it's alright... its the mechanic, and as screwy as the mechanic is, the rules clearly state it comes first. I am in the process of reorganizing the RP rules, and am calling them RP institutions now, which can be used, but may or may not actually be enforced, to lower the cost of entry for new Players in Kalistan. Whatever... There is really no point in fighting all of this...

The "System Comes First" thing is an old rule from the long-gone Pax Cynica I believe. Seeing as the rules now bans nation locks, the early election tactic and even Cabinet locks (which - honestly - should be seen as an RP-issue), I think that's not really a guiding principle any longer.

I really hope that you're gonna continue to contribute to the game and the lore as usual, no matter what other people say.

Of course, there are a few players on the forums which appreciate the affinity for a singular country, and work over years, over almost a decade, on that country. Abandoning it and this game would be like me leaving a kid out in the cold to die because things have gotten boring, but I would always come back... Right now- there is still a lot to do, so I appreciate your encouragement, and the constructive comments which have appeared on this thread.

I also appreciate the care for our situation in Kalistan shown both here and in PM by you all. It is a real mark of style and class, and I am thankful.
