recruitment telegrams

oh no not

Greetings, %NATION%! First of all, thank you for not blocking recruitment telegrams. It is always refreshing to find someone with an open mind, and willing to try new things.

Tired of your current region? Want to try making a difference somewhere else? I represent a region called New Hyperion, a relatively small region of warriors, scientists, and roleplayers seeking to rebuild a vibrant community after the destruction of our homeland. We are looking for new talent, and friend, you're it!

We are:
• A young region filled with experienced players
• Both a role-player and game-player region
• A sci-fi/future tech themed region, but we welcome all others
• An Imperialistic region

If you are inexperienced at NationStates, we have the resources and training facilities to turn you into an MVP. If you are an experienced player, your skills will be rewarded with a speedy rise through the ranks. We are by no means short on positions of authority; such are the opportunities within a growing region like ours.

We have an offsite forum where our community roleplays, discusses a variety of topics and operates our regional government. We are always on the lookout for both new and experienced players to take the region to new heights, so please consider joining New Hyperion and what you can achieve with us.

If you have any questions, just reply to this message and I will respond ASAP. I look forward to seeing you around.

Regards,
New Hyperion Imperial Council

Salutations, %NATION%, and welcome to NationStates!

With all the telegrams you're receiving about all these regions, you may be wondering why it's so important to pick the right region. Regions are like guilds or clans in other games. Each has its own culture, community, activities, and government affairs, and each region offers a vastly different experience. While I know you're receiving many such messages, I would like to humbly ask you to consider our own region, Wintreath, when you make your choice. What do we have to offer, you ask?

Wintreath is home to an welcoming, close-knit community of friends.
-We have a great mix of both new and veteran players, so nobody feels out of place!
-Wintreath has a very diverse community, including a vibrant LGBTQ community. Join in and take part in our zany antics!
-How would you like to interact with us? We have an active regional message board, off-site forum, and IRC/chatroom.
-Wintreath was founded on the principles of cooperation, respect, and a strong community—something that you'll find quite unique in Nationstates.
-Our community is one of the most open in NationStates. Chill out, make friends, and discuss just about anything.

Wintreath is a region of fun and games!
-We are buillding a unique, community-driven database of people, locations, and lore of our region for any roleplay to utilize in the future.
-We regularly play games together, with Civilization V and Crusader Kings II being our most popular events at the moment!
-Wintreath has a dedicated Steam group for regionmates to find each other and have fun together!
-Forum games galore! Werewolf/Mafia, Spyfall, and more!
-Our own regional Minecraft server! Join your fellow region-mates in some classic survival MC!

Wintreath has a government which strives to make the region better!
-Elections to our lower legislature, the Underhusen, are every two months and are open for all Citizens to run in!
-Citizens can propose bills to the legislature as well as debate all bills that come before it.
-Appointed ministry positions, volunteer positions, and military service allow you to make a name for yourself and serve the region.
-Committees are regularly formed to put together special activities or events, which any Citizen can volunteer for.
-A Civil Service has been opened, where citizens and officials alike can help with the work of the Wintrean government.

While there are many aspects to our region, its true strength is the awesome people that are in it, and we would be honoured if you would consider making our region even better by joining us. If you are interested at all, consider trying out our region by clicking the Move button at the bottom of this telegram. You're not obligated to stay, so what do you have to lose? I hope you consider checking Wintreath out. If you have any questions, feel free to telegram me back! Thank you for your time and consideration.

Yours,
-Wintermoot
-Founder and Monarch of Wintreath

Overview of Recruitment

Thanks for you interest in recruiting for our region! Recruiting may not be the funnest or most glorious task, but it's one of the most vital roles in the region because it lets new and returning nations know who we are and what we're all about in the hope they'll consider moving here! This guide will help you get started with the basics of setting up a recruitment telegram and sending it for the first time!

In order to recruit, you will need a nation in Wintreath to send telegrams from. This can be your Citizenship nation or a nation you create specifically to recruit from.

Setting up the Recruitment Telegram

First, we need to take our recruitment telegram and turn it into a template. Templates are used when we want to send the same telegram to multiple nations and takes up fewer server resources on the game than copying and pasting the entire telegram and sending it repeatedly. For this reason, the game staff highly encourages recruiters to use templates. Templates also allow you to track how many telegrams you have sent and have been successfully received. To create a template:

1) Copy our standard recruitment telegram from here.

2) Go to your NationStates nation page, making sure that you are logged in as the nation you want to send recruitment telegrams from.

3) In the To field, type in tag:template to tell NationStates that you want to create a message template, and then paste the recruitment message in the box.

4) IMPORTANT: Hit the arrow or plus sign beside the To field and mark the template as a recruitment telegram for Wintreath. It is against game rules to send recruitment telegrams that have not been marked.

5) Click the Send button and copy the code you receive that begins and ends with a percent sign. This is your template ID, and it will be what you actually send to nations.

Sending Your First Recruitment Telegram

Now that you have a message template, you're ready to begin recruiting! To begin recruiting:

1) Go to our recruitment portal located here! This is a special page that lists the last 100 nations that have been created or revived and can be recruited to.

2) Click on a nation in the list. This will take you to their NationStates nation page.

3) At the bottom of their nation page, click Write Telegram, and then in the box that appears paste the template code that you received earlier.

4) If this is the first nation you are recruiting to, you may want to click the Preview and then click the link it provides to make sure nothing is wrong with your telegram and it is properly marked as a recruitment telegram.

5) Click Send to send the recruitment message.

And that's all there is to it. Rinse and repeat steps 2, 3, and 5 to recruit additional nations.

Things to Look Out For

1) Try to avoid recruiting to nations that have obscene names. These nations will quickly be deleted by the game staff if they haven't already been, and your recruitment effort wil have been wasted on that nation.

2) Also try to avoid recruiting to Nazi nations. These can usually be identified by the name of the nation or the flag they're waving. We don't want them and they probably don't want us either.

3) You may see a series of nations being created that have nearly the same name or are flying the same flag. These are puppet nations...additional nations created by the same person, and you can skip over them since usually they are already part of a region.

Conclusion

Again, thank you for your interest in helping to bring new people to Wintreath! If you have any questions about recruitment or there is a step that is not clear, feel free to post in the Civil Service area and we will help you out as soon as we can!
