    Help me run my country!

    I've created a country on nationstates.net.

    We have to address various issues so that our country may grow and prosper. My issue is:

    Should hospitals be allowed to harvest needed organs from the dead without formal consent? If little Billy needs a kidney and Mr. Swanson, who just died, has a compatible one, should we be able to take it without asking Mrs. Swanson?

    Hey, I got that question for my country too! First of Two, did you join nationstates.net through rpg.net, or did you find out about it elsewhere?

    It's a fun game.

    K3wl. I may have to join up as well. What region are you in? Should we make a region for ourselves? Trek-O-Topia or such?

    If you're looking at your country's screen, with the flag and write-up, there should be a link somewhere that says something like "Tired of living in Pacific? Change your region!" or something like that.

    On the sidebar menu, click on the region in which you're currently located.



    After the description of the region is a link.

    Tired of life in Trektopia? Then move to a new region!

    Click the link

    Ah. If only the page moved faster. Takes forever to get on the damn forums.

    Didja know there was already a region called "Deep Space"? I wonder if they have 9 members yet...

    Today's dillemma: Some people want to ban (and burn) the Harry Potter books.

    Dude, I'm a Librarian!

    They're just lucky there wasn't an Option 3: Execute the would-be censors.
