Lets talk about... Dictatorship
#1
Shocked 
Alright. Here are my two cents on dictatorships.


Quote:"dictatorship
noun
1. a country, government, or the form of government in which absolute power is exercised by a dictator.
2. absolute, imperious, or overbearing power or control.
3. the office or position held by a dictator."

I think think there are two types of dictatorship. Good and bad


The Bad *dramatic sound*

A bad dictatorship in my opinion is the standard "LETS-BAN-EVERYTHING-SO-I-CAN-BE-RAIDED". This person only writes "/broadcast Cars, shops, suits, walking, bald people, dealers, food banned" He has no real thought or planning behind his/her actions. He/she has no bad-guy-personality and does not stand out from the giant hoard of "LETS-BAN-EVERYTHING-Dictators".
What really grinds my gear about this that he/she does not make any RP out of his/her dictatorship. They have the power to more or less ban Passive-RP by sending her/his policeforce upon citizens who have done nothing wrong.

If you want aggressive RP, I think you should let someone else have the president-job. You can be mafia, drugseller and etc.

A good dictatorship in my opinion is a dictator who makes something out of his/her position. This person has more or less banned everything, but has "good" reasoning behind his/her bans.
I do not think of myself of a "perfect" dictator, but If I go dictator, I'll try to make something out of it.
I RP'd as a "Al Gore" of a dictator. I was very ECO-Friendly and had therefore banned any vehicles or tools who used fossil fuel. (Therefore, cars and lawnmowers were banned). I had also banned expencive clothing(suits) because it took alot of valuble resources and energy to produce these fine and exclusive suits just so people could show their wealthiness.
Now... I do not claim that im necessarily good dictator, but I try to make something out of it. I try to go for a personality which stands out, and I really like when other dictators do the same.
Basicly, I just wish for a bit more reasoning to why you choose to ban everything in the city, which can lead to an economical crysis.

Oh, you're a dictatorship who belives that free will will lead in chaos? Good for you!
You believe that humanity is on its path in the wrong direction and you want to "re-guide" it to perfection? Good for you!

What if we banned dictatorship as a whole? One can argue that dictatorship limits RP and is basicly.. stupid, but where would the limit between a normal government and a dictatorship go? Surely, this opinion would depend on the admin, would it not?

Now, please excuse my poor post as I'm writing this 6:30 in the morning, but I've had it with dictators who go dictators only so they can get raided. Dictatorship is over-done and very unoriginal and not creative.


Anyone else who want to share their views about this subject? Please stay on topic and keep it reasonable. You disagree? Please let me know why.
