Whoa.....
Time to brush the dust off...
And you guys talk about a long time, a year and a half for me. But yeah, I have had fun for the past year, creating an empire, building up a government, sustaining in times of crisis, war, and eventually the downfall due to pricks in another region. So I have had my fun, and am still having it, but I decided to maybe come back and rub some experience off by trying to help you all establish a government.
My old region..."The Praetorian Empire", started from nothing, I basically spent my lazy hours during school recruiting on my palm. In order to start a new government you need to find experienced veterans to come and help in the process. Also to gain the favor of the masses you need to incite everyones interest and common weakness....power. You can gain a large population that way by offering positions of power.
I will tell more later, but I have to do my school work...later.

Experienced veteran?... We're not new to the game... I got an idea on how to re-start the government. Your help is appreciated though. Lets keep things civil this time around .

Just an f.y.i. cynicalmen, I've been on this site for almost 3 years now...and, if I'm not mistaken, I'm also the oldest out of everyone in this region...so don't go talking about experienced veterans around me.
And RR....I was offered a job with JPMorgan Chase, but my current compnay made a counter offer for more than I'd make with Chase, so I'm keeping my current job (I'm a Loss Prevention Agent, where I kick shoplifter butt every day)..

Ummm...
I never said anything about me being an experienced veteran, I said you need MORE experienced veterans to come and help you out.
"In order to start a new government you need to find experienced veterans to come and help in the process." I believe this is what I said, no need for hostilities, I am only trying to help.
Just an F.Y.I: Also LT I think I know you are more experienced so no need to get into an all out war on this topic, I was trying to help. Being in the world political scene can make you incrediblly more humble.

Jeez. The boards have been dead a really long time. That's depressing. (Silently takes knife to leg.)

How's your leg holding up, buddy?
Still healing from the self-infliction?

Oh, you know. Six months is a long time to heal. So, I'm getting there. Now it's probably gonna start again now that I'm working at THAT place again. Hate that stupid place. So sick of working there.

Jeez. The boards have been dead a really long time. That's depressing. (Silently takes knife to leg.) That's what happened. RR was referring to this statement. I was saying I was going to continue stabbing my leg again because I had to crawl back to my old job, so that I could make some money. Kinda depressing considering everyone I liked working with (excluding one girl) is gone. We have 2 completely incompetent people working as managers, and after nearly 16 months of working there, I still make minimum wage. I hate that job, if you couldn't tell.

Nope, I could not tell at all.
I don't work minimum wage: Hooray!
But close.

After a while it feels a little bit demeaning that we are paid so little and then you go find out that your manager's, or friends, or whatever get paid much more than you do and have an easier job. Not that mine's hard, but I still do more work than people I know that make over $11.00 an hour. At least I only have to work there until Aug. then no more.
