User blog comment:Kwiksilver/Island Policy and the USA Map/@comment-811766-20100329032717

Brillisnt idea, as usual, Kwiksilver. However, I would reccomend that new islands be created WITHOUT BOSS APPROVAL, and they will be judged after writing. Furthermore, new island-making should be legal, if they are 'uninhabited, or of their leaders are NOT character users.

However, under this policy, does Maverick and El Presidente violate the doctrine? Tortuga is a character user (one of many "Shrooms" to come, I hope) and has control over an island, and he's rich and has a banking record. Is that illegal under your doctrine? I'll have you know that Maverick was an LQA/Stub before Tortuga took it!!

Also, can character users snatch EXISTING ISLANDS for their power?

Also, can character users have titles and POSITIONS in existing governments and countries, like an assistant, bureaucrat, Minister, judge, mayor, ect., of a government, country, or regime that already exists? Fir instance, making XTUX the comptroller of all waste management in Bottoms Up, or, say, a gothic spinoff of Rocket Slug (considering the Gothic Candace on her user page) a friend of Daniel Specter (especially since I nixed Samantha "Sam" Manson from the DP parody)? What about an existing king, emporer, mayor, ect. dying, and with the permission of the original writer, the noble gives his empire to a character user?

What about private resort or home islands that are NOT countries or powers on the continental scale? Also, I smell a loophole: users write a good island with a non-character-user leader, then they write an article on that leader. Then, they document the leader's coup or (non-fatal) asassination, and they cede the island to a character user!

Actually, that loophole may be a good thing! Think of all the exoansion and writing it took to give that island over! It would be good for the articles!

Also, remember, any article that is LQA or STUB is up for the taking. I say that 'any item that has been UNDER CONSTRUCTION for over three months should be PUT UP FOR THE ADOPTION SPREE REGARDLESS OF QUALITY LEVEL, EVEN HQA ''!!'0
