That means exercising fair moderation of the RMB without killing activity. I don't care about double posting, but I would suppress triple posts, hate speech and spam. I would make sure we always have entertaining regional polls, and enthusiastically encourage gameside activity.

I know our region has been gone through debates over the place of roleplay in the main RMB and feel have a good balance. Our roleplaying sub-regions (Psomewhere and Knowhere) see quite regular activity and the current policy of 7 or 8 posts seems to work fine. Of course, if the new LC jointly wishes to adjust this, I will gently encourage roleplays move to the 'wheres. I love doing nation based roleplay in our knowhere region (and the occasional one-off's here and there) and will continue that regardless of the election outcome. I think if we want people to roleplay in the 'wheres we should give people a reason to use them by regularly starting storylines that draw people in. The 'wheres are not where roleplay is supposed to go to die, but to go to thrive.

I'm a compulsive dispatch publisher, and am always available to help nations crafting dispatches and factbooks that reflect their vision for their nation. I read (and upvote) every single dispatch published in TSP and highlight the news in my (semi-daily) Volaworand Newswire. I support improving our regional journalism and hope to restart & maintain the TSP Slownews if elected.

My other TSP passion is our Southern World Assembly iNitiative (SWAN). I strive to endorse everyone in the region and I was the first nation in our region to endorse over 1000 nations in a single month. Since then I consistently maintain endorsements of at least 98-ish percent of the region (while I hunt for the few I've missed). I recently exceeded our endorsement cap, so I left the WA for all of 5 minutes (it was horrible) so I could restart collecting endorsements but maintain the endorsements I've handed out. I think the SWAN initiative is a key part of building a close-knit, integrated and secure community, and a necessary step to help us retain nations who were lucky enough to spawn in our region, and attract new nations.

While I consider the RMB my home, I'm also a legislator on our offsite forums and participate actively and independently in our region's politics. I think it's important for everyone on the LC to be familiar enough with all aspects of our regional government to be able to connect nations with the resources we have to offer. Also, as a very active poster on our RMB I will promote the current initiatives, votes and events and festivals happening in the other half of our region.

I've become completely hooked on the Nationstates trading cards and am slowly building my TSP collection. I absolutely love being able to showcase the amazing diversity of our region. If I've gone quiet on the RMB I'm likely lurking while watching an auction closely. Or maybe eating... sometimes I even go to work or sleep, but TSP is always huge part of my day. I'm here for several hours a day, every day.
