A nation has been riling up the Pacific against Fraco Spain, he seems to be moving into the Pacific, then posting, then moving out again.

There have been a number of nations to do that. Apparently they have been gathering a resistance in the rejected realms. They have been soliciting those that support the current delegate to change sides. Be wary of their advances!

Worry not, our God shall protect us. On many occasions, He has already defended our Chosen One when His seat has been threatened, and so He shall, as long as His Blessed Light shines upon us. Which is to say, of course, for eternity.

Well, sure, God is all super and great, but don't forget: "God helps those who help Francos Spain."

Of course. I've noticed a sharp decrease in solicitations of nations visably supporting Francos. Perhaps they're growing tired? More likely the case is they've been reprimanded for spamming. There are complaints against the PA and RRA in moderation where they've been sanctioned for violating the rules on mass mailings. That and from what I can see they've attracted some of the more notable intel minds to help them. Natural extension of that is they've indentified the 'hard' support and are concentrating on swaying n00bs and immigrants, the 'soft' support if you will.

They've tried to be more diplomatic in the HQ board, as well.

The natural defence to that is providing clear opposing view points free of rancour. In my experience debating with them inevitably the veneer of civilization drops when their arguments fail to sway. Provides the opportunity to show them for the undisciplined thugs they are.

Exactly, and even their leaders are likely to slip into such rhetoric if they feel they're arguments are not converting Francos' allies.
If we remain patient, supportive, and tolerant (to a rational and polite degree), we will triumph.

I think we have already won. Our delegate continues to defy all of their pompous attempts to remove him. That is why we have had all of the celebrations, I think. No one can invade this region; they are only kidding themselves if they think they can.

No one can invade this region; they are only kidding themselves if they think they can. That was the argument Theodec most likely presented when he looked at his endorsements however he was outplayed and ousted. We can't afford to be lax, ever. You're correct about them prevailing however. I don't see them winning as they are presently organized. They are incredibly spread out and unwilling to surrender any power amongst themselves for the common goal of unseating Franco. We have to worry if there comes a charismatic leader to unite them. Given the way this game is played and the jealous egos I sincerely doubt that will ever happen. What I do see is Franco becoming a lightening rod for dissent. Here we have a delegate who removed the old guard and has retained power despite the savage PR campaign and attacks. NS is so full of cliques who look on newcomers with disdain it has all the trappings of the old boys club. With Franco poking one of the oldest in the eye he has become a hero for those who have been ignored by the attention whores in the forums. May be good PR to make him the common man's hero for taking on the old guard with all its bloat and corruption. This has to be worded intelligently. When I put the idea forward in a debate I was told if I didn't like the game I should leave. It strikes a chord in our opposition they don't like. It shows them to be the elitists and followers they are.

The only way to prevent that is to make sure all UN members join behind Francos Spain.

It's true that Franco's endorsements are decreasing somewhat steadily, but someone is just plain fooling themselves if they think that Franco will ever be deposed. Frankly, the only end to this I see is when Franco gets tired of NS and stops playing. Which I don't see happening anytime at all soon.

If you don't mind my saying so, Tar A, I think that's a touch of hubris. We're not in a position where we can sit back and let events just run their course. It will only be when those who are campaigning against Francos realize the futility of their efforts that the Pacific will be truly secure. Even the worst- organized and intellectually small can take advantage of a government that does not police them. The sad truth is that, while they exist the Pacific is in danger. The positive side is that Francos has and will no doubt continue to be vigilant.
