Based on your answers, we will help you get involved in any aspect of the region that you are interested in! Indicating interest here does not commit you to joining any aspect of the region.

Section II: Introductions and Questions
Please take a moment to introduce yourself to your future region-mates, or ask us any questions that you may have.

Hello! I'm from the eastern United States. I'm coming back to NationStates after a LONG hiatus. I'm fairly easy-going, and I'm looking forward to meeting some cool people on here.

Welcome to Wintreath! I hope you enjoy your stay.

While you're waiting for your application to be reviewed, feel free to check out the Frozen Village forums...they are open to applicants. And if you have any questions, feel free to ask here as well.

Welcome!  So I'm curious, how long have you been playing NS in total?

Total? I can't give you a definite answer. I had several nations off-and-on when I was in high school thru the first few years of college/university. 2008-2010 was probably when I was most active. Sierra Corleone was founded during that time. I tried to stay on it, but 2010 was probably the busiest year I had in school, what with class and the extra-curriculars I had going on. I just didn't have the time to keep up, so I took a step back from the region I was in, and eventually just quit all together.

Hi.

Welcome!

I am delighted to say you have passed the nation check!

You can read up and apply for the Wintreath Hvitt Ridarral here or Skydande Vakt here, the first is our regular military, the second our support force.

You can apply for the Civil Service, where citizens can help our Jarls and Thanes (ministers) here

On a lighter note: the RolePlays are here, and if you change your mind the Minecraft board is here.

Apart from that you can take part in our General Discussions area and on our IRC, the chat area, or #wintreath on irc.esper.net if you have a client

Finally, would you like to be assigned a mentor to help you settle here?

Once more, welcome to Wintreath!

Stark
Thane of Integration

And masked! Welcome again.

Also when I was adding your Citizen permissions I couldn't help but notice that you're from West Virginia as well...pretty rare thing. Only the third person on NS I know of, other than myself and one other outside the region.

Thanks, all! I'll start looking around to see where I might find a good fit. I probably will have some questions while i get acclimated to the region, but I usually do OK on my own. And as I said, I'm not new to NS. Haha

And yep, I was born and raised in the Mountain State. Nice to know I'm not the only West Virginian here. Lol

So do you want to leave the state like everyone else?

I am not opposed to leaving, provided the right offer comes along, but I am happy here. I have no plans to leave at the moment.

So I assume you live in one of the lovelier parts of the state that isn't hickville?

Lol. No, I do not live in a rural area, if that's what you mean (although, the definition of "rural" is a bit different in WV). But I've been all over the state. There are some areas I don't particularly care for (Huntington, for example...and its nothing to do with Marshall University, although I don't like them either...no offense if you happen to be an MU fan), but I thing a very significant portion of our state is quite lovely.

So you won't be needing a mentor to help you settle in to Wintreath?

Now that I think about it, and now that I've explored a little bit, a mentor might be helpful. Wintreath is a bit different that regions I've been in in the past. So, yes please. lol

Different as in a cut above the rest, right?
