Well, for one reason or another I've been deleted... again, for allegedly posting a pornographic link on Nationstates, and I'm also apparently close to DoS status on the site. It has become apparent that I am either incapable of following the rules of the Nationstates site, varying moderators dislike me or a combination of the two.
Taking all that into consideration I have also come to the conclusion that both my alleged on-site actions, and my apparent near-DoS status make it difficult for me to carry out my responsibilities as Chief of Recruitment, as well as those that arise from being a merryman also, until such a time as my future on the site is more secure.
As such, I hereby resign from the office of Chief of Recruitment, and announce a 6 week sabbatical from frontline UDL operations and NS in general. I may return in 6 weeks. I may not.
I have had enormous fun getting to know you, and defending with you, whether we've been kicking ass or getting our asses kicked. I went from being someone who didn't even know what a switcher was, to having a region full of them. I went from a RPer/NSGer who had this black and white of gameplay to someone who found himself taking part of it, and enjoying it and I'm sorry that actions that have nothing to do with the UDL have made me feel like I have no other choice but to do this.
I'll be passing either my former deputy or Unibot a list of my contacts for emergency troops, as well as any other information they need to best able to manage the transition without problems.
Hoping I can return in 6 weeks,
-St George

Awwww, we'll miss you a lot, Georgy. *hugs George* If you decide to return, we'll be happy to have you among our ranks. I speak for the United Defenders League when I say you've been a fantastic member who has contributed a lot, your mere presence alone often brightened up our IRC channel. I hope your sabbatical from NS goes well.

Thanks, both of you. Hopefully I'll be back in 6 weeks or so, refreshed and ready to rock.

UPDATE: >Appeal of deat launched.
>Appeal failed Spoiler: click to toggle NationStates Moderators (19 hours ago) Your appeal for restoration of your nation -St George has been refused. The site on which the video was hosted rated it as restricted to 18+ users, a limitation which should have given you a hint to NOT post the link. The content was explicit within the terms of this site, which, as you know, aims for PG-13 content. That example of extremely bad judgment, plus your status as a player who had already lost one nation and had been recently warned how near you were to losing a second, cost you - St George.
You should also note that, in view of your record, the question of classifying you as a Delete on Sight player was seriously discussed by 11 mods, including forum, game and senior moderators. Your warnings weighed heavily against you, particularly your repetition in your second nation of the flaming and flamebaiting that cost you your first. The only thing that saved you was evidence that you had also been actively helpful on occasion, by reporting rulebreaking, defusing confrontations with good humour and turning topics back on track.
The helpful player we don't want to lose; the obnoxious, flaming one, we do. If you can't discipline yourself to deal respectfully with your fellow players, we will do it for you. On the next offence, we will be forced to name you -- with considerable regret, but irreversibly -- Delete on Sight. This is your final warning.
>Fuck 6 week absence. I'm staying and kicking arse and avoiding NSG threads liable to make me raeg.
>Hilleville is welcome to the Chief of Recruitment job

For the most part, the mods are okay with the actual problems like Govindia, Kurd, etc., while they come down hard on non-issues like this one.
