Petition to Alex
Dear Alex,
I am a minor speaking out after having to participate in a mass report campaign to remove United Cumin, which took 30 minutes according to witnesses. The sheer time taken to ban this horrible nation makes me uncomfortable. Do we expect such a response, even if there is a malicious person who posts abhorrent content on bulletin boards than what United Cumin posted?
The last time was approximately an hour, and this time was definitely an improvement from previously. However, it is a considerable show of inefficiency by the moderation team, because such a large and active community deserves better and faster response.
Perhaps is it possible to make the moderation team better? Perhaps it is possible to make a better nation creation system? Can there be any solution to this problem of ban evasion?
Another problem similar to this is swearing. One can easily bypass censorship by writing the word in capital letters, yet words like "s-e-x" in which I tried to describe biological differentiation of human genders was censored.
I get it, the game is not for children. This game is for a PG-13 audience, but when people can openly use swear words and not get detected at many times, it is a problem. Can you please possibly work better regarding all of these instances I have mentioned above?

Economy Report with Sultan Derent
The pain of producing aluminum (3.3 million for 772 bauxite? that's insane)
snfh, Okay, let's move on to the economy section!
Alex 10 million years ago introduced resources into PnW, and now, he's rolling in cash because of it. If only I could…
That's what this section is for, for you to keep track of economic news every week with your glorious, famed host Sultan Derent!
Let's start!
Munitions, our old friend, hasn't changed and sits at $1800
Foods dropped by about 35 dollars to $140
Gasoline also hasn't changed much at $2600
Coal has a $300 increase to $2500
Oil, AGAIN SITS EXACTLY AT $2000 once again!
And, Iron has increased by $200 to $2500
If you read the above section, you are probably the most mundane person to ever exist
Uranium's spike was short-lived once again and is back to its glorious price of $3000
Lead has dropped ANOTHER $100 to $3100. Maybe it'll drop even more?
Bauxite, as stated in the picture above, is still wildly expensive at $4400
Steel, arguably the most important resource, stays the same at $3600 for a record of 3 whole weeks!
And aluminum still sits at $3400
Cmon, PnW, do I need to say this? INVEST. IN. BAUXITE. This monster hasn't dropped and is speculated to not drop in the coming weeks. Let's mine and become the richest people in existence!

Welcome back y'all, let's talk about some sports. There really hasn't been a lot of events going on in Orbis, but let's touch up on what has happened so far.
The OIFA Champions League will start sometime this year. Some more information about the OIFA Champions League.
- The Champions League is based on a club competition, meaning everyone will be in clubs.
- There will be groups of 3 clubs.
- Only the group winners are guaranteed spot in knockout rounds.
- All clubs will play each other twice, home and away.
- Dreamistan will host the finals. This is pretty much it for now. Cya!

Here's the Comment Poll for Week 9: Do you think that PnW needs better moderation as stated in our feature section Petition to Alex?
Perhaps
these OOW's are really fun to read, even when I really dont have time to be reading them. thank you for doing these.
Yes. I don't need an explanation; the explanation is sitting there.
Hmmm. You'd also have to think that 30 minutes is not that long to be honest. I mean, reports on other sites can take days to be processed. But I see what you mean on the vulgar language thing. Censorship is also not easy to detect and do. We'll have to see if Alex wants to put the time and money into developing a better moderation.
PnW 100% needs better moderation. There are a couple of times where I've come across users who ought to be banned, but are not. I don't see too much of a problem with swearing as well, but if it is banned here and ppl are very easily bypassing the bans, then damn, they need to do something about that.
Yes, I think so. I once reported someone for saying some pretty awful and homophobic stuff to me, and, while their previous comment was deleted, the one in which they insulted me with swear words and ranted about how their previous homophobic comment calling me a swear word resulted in them getting a few moderation points was left there. So, I think that there are definitely issues with moderation.
Also, the Luna meme is quite accurate.
Yes, the fact United Cumin can reroll like 10 times in 3 days is insane
Gimme 5.5m and the bauxite advice better be good
God damnit!
Why is Bauxite this expensive?!?
