Post Writing Rules

During non-RP week, a country has the right to write only 1 post per day on one topic. During RP week, a state has the right to publish a maximum of 1 post. Posts are how a state earns certain characteristics, which will later be entered into the table. A post can be a newspaper post (in the form of a newspaper image), text post, or video post.

When writing a post, you must follow a certain set of rules:

  1. Self-verdicts are prohibited, meaning you cannot state the result of a reform described in the post. For example: after writing an RP post about building a factory in the capital, you cannot say that citizens' welfare improved, production increased, currency strengthened, etc.

    • 1.1. Subtopics are prohibited

  2. Any discovery (in terms of science or general state development) cannot significantly outpace the time period without practical sense or a described series of posts. For example: the Russian Empire cannot suddenly build a nuclear reactor in the middle of Tsaritsyn. Also, in the post, the innovation must have a detailed description of the discovery's design (in case it's, for example, a machine tool, or a new type of production, etc.).

  3. If a reform has a long-term implementation period (for example, like Stalin's five-year plans), the reform's outcome cannot be accounted for or described in the post. At most, the reform can be mentioned periodically at certain intervals, based on verdicts from previous posts on the same topic.

  4. Each post related to implementing a reform must contain information about the reasons, implementation timeframes, implementation stages, expected expenses, and anticipated consequences.

  5. The post and accompanying screenshots from the game must be of high quality. Use of artificial intelligence for their creation is permitted if there are significant reasons for it. In case of poor post quality, at the Verder's discretion, characteristics may be reduced, up to their removal or post rejection.

  6. The minimum text volume for any post topic is 800 characters. Topics with identical characteristics cannot be repeated.

    • 6.1. A graphic post must have reasonably readable text (at minimum it should be readable without zooming in). Also, processed screenshots from the game should match the newspaper style.
    • 6.2. A video post must be at least two minutes long and must not be voiced using artificial intelligence for voicing. Post evaluation will be conducted based on editing quality, video duration, and information presentation. RP Administration has the right to request a plot description from the author. A video post where more than 30% of screen time is occupied by titles or a presenter frantically waving at the camera may be rejected. Statistics for a video post that has already been used on another server may be significantly reduced (even the use of scene assets from other servers is considered).
    • 6.3. Each topic in the post must be supported by evidence from the game. For example: if you are going to sign any diplomatic action with another state, you must attach a screenshot from the game showing representatives of these states. (Spawn screenshots are not counted). A signed treaty must be described and signed in local chat (A screenshot of this must also be included in the post).
    • 6.4. Topics about diplomacy, division movement, division formation are not included in the post topic limit.
    • 6.5. A post about fleet and army movement must include a route map, as well as the exact number of divisions being moved, or fleet units.

  7. Posts about state unification must necessarily include:

    1. A post about economic integration.
    2. A post about cultural integration.
    3. Administrative integration (the actual result of the posts, where integration itself occurs).

  8. Profanity, a large number of text errors, and offensive insults towards other states are prohibited in posts (exception — propaganda slogans).

  9. Use of neural networks for writing posts is prohibited; if a neural network is detected in the post, the final characteristics in the verdict may be reduced down to zero (minimum 70%).

Posts violating these rules (above) may be rejected or have reduced stats in the final verdict, at the administration's discretion.
