I can't tell countries units apart
I can see when a vessel is in the water it has a small box shaded in the color of the country but I don't see that on the armies, so as a result I can't tell who is who once the game gets going....I am new, am I missing something?

Issue with supply centers
Hey, I moved into a supply center territory in the spring then moved out in the fall but for some reason I didn't keep control of that territory. No other power moved in. I was wondering what gives?

Tax Haven
http://www.businessinsider.com/liberland-this-newly-declared-microcountry-wants-to-become-the-worlds-foremost-tax-haven-2015-4

A new, tiny tax haven, where taxes are entirely voluntary and currency type is up to the individual, apparently now exists in Europe. Thoughts?

Already knew that Liberland existed although I never took it serious because come on, it can't function as a country, but I didn't think of it as a tax haven yet.
I still don't think it's going to work out exactly, it simply won't be recognised since the land is still Serbian by my logic and probably by theirs as well.

The fact is that Serbia claims the borders should be different from how they currently are, meaning Serbia gets a nice extra chunk of land while 2.7 square miles would go to Croatia according to Serbia. Since Croatia doesn't agree to this division, this new division isn't happening.

To say the land belongs to no one simply because the owner (Serbia) claims it should belong to someone else (Croatia) seems like a very flawed logic.

Calling it a sovereign nation was a funny joke I hadn't heard before either.

I'd say that if it does become a tax haven somehow, Serbia and Croatia will do something about it soon enough. It just looks like someone is hoping to abuse a misunderstanding to create a tax haven and I doubt it works because it has so little legitimacy.

I'd say tax havening will become unpopular, but given the history and lack of recognition i seriously doubt any signifigant investment will be taken as security is a pretty big issue to most people who have enough money that it is worth their time relocating to a tax haven...

that it isn't worth their time?

Otherwise I don't think I get what you're saying.

The article says that 260,000 applied for citizenship and that they will take the rich ones, basically. I imagine those people can pay for their own healthcare. It's not as if there won't be taxes, either; they'll just be voluntary. In other words, if your road is full of potholes and you want it fixed, you can either fix it or voluntarily tax yourself so that your government will find someone to come fix it. It seems like it could be doable on a ridiculously small scale like this if the neighboring countries don't send tanks up to the "border."

My point is this: I think most countries will still ask you to pay them taxes if you claim you don't have to because you're paying taxes to Liberland, which I would assume is just a delusional dude to pretty much every country in the world.
bo_sox48 (5202 DMod(G))

Yeah, probably. I don't disagree with that.

Some countries determine your tax payment based on residency, so i know of one irish billionaire who only spends ~180 day a year in ireland ( his kids used be in my scout group, and couldn't attend activities when he was home, cause that was the only time they'd get to see him - unless i'm mistemembering this story )

Still not banned.
I apologize for using my one and only account for this, but since the mods still haven't banned me I wasn't forced to create a second account to again complain about them not explaining why I haven't been banned.

Not banned.
I haven't been banned but the mods never told me why they didn't ban me. Admittedly I haven't asked them why they didn't ban me, but still... maybe the mods are overworked???

What?
I'm on my phone, and a lot of symbols are acting wonky. There isn't a star to show threads I've commented in, the two locked threads on the front page show checkmarks instead of locks, the bronze donators are marked by locks, and mods are marked by bronze circles. Am I the only one seeing this?

Maybe the solution is just adding more mods, so they can more adequately handle the requests, and ultimately ban absolutely everyone. That seems to be the endgame! Bigger government!!!!!!
