Why I am Interested in Becoming a Talossan: I have renounced my citizenship not that long ago. I realised it was stupid and that it is impossible to live without Talossanity; it's an important part in my life it seems. I have made contributions for this kingdom and I wish to return.
My Special Interest in Talossa: Other, if any: Piano, gaming, computer-related things
More About Myself: What's important to me is that I get better in school. I sometimes enjoy to spend my time in solitude. I have been playing the piano for around 6 years now.
Where did you hear about the Kingdom of Talossa? Random internet surfing
Have you been introduced to the Kingdom of Talossa by an existing citizen? NO -
Do you have any previous experience with, or membership in, any "micronations"? YES - Talossa. I have been a citizen and I want to return.
Is it okay if Talossan citizens contact you by e-mail? YES

I'm actually concerned by this, Barclamiu. I hope things you mentioned as reasons for leaving have improved in an unexpectedly fast way.
Why did he renounce it before ? I'm wondering if he's good and hope no problems ?
Quote from: e.iwuagwu on January 25, 2025, 10:21:36 AMWhy did he renounce it before ?
Reasons are in my renounciation post.
I'm back now. For good.

??
I'm afraid I have to agree with S:reu Tzaracomprada on this one.
I can't disagree. If you're a friend, and you expressed multiple times to me how something is toxic to you and you really should quit it for a while because it's being a detriment to much more important stuff in your daily life, then letting you get hooked again is not what a friend would do.
The other crucial thing here is that, according to Talossan law, Barclamïu is an adult and mature enough to make his own decisions, agree or disagree. And unless one also believed we should change the law so that the age of Talossan majority was nudged up a bit*, one's hardly in a position to also believe we should act as his moral guardians and delay his reimmigration "for his own good" with any of the legal tools we have.
So effectively it's up to you, Barclamïu. But I beg of you to consider whether this is a wise move if what's gonna happen next is you get reabsorbed in Talossa to a degree that it becomes a detriment to your studies and life again.
*: which I incidentally do believe we should do, despite my own (and Ian's) immigration at barely 14

I don't think a 14 or 15 year old is an adult. I know our history with our founder makes this a point of national heritage but personal development does not obey our history based laws. Barclamiu has admitted issues with internet addiction affecting his schooling...to such an extent to cause discord with his parents. It is up to us as well to encourage responsibility as friends and as people who want to foster that type of culture.
And I wholeheartedly agree that we need to consider making immigration changes as well to perhaps add some need for parental guidance for applicants under the age of 18.
It takes just one tragedy for us to regret not taking action sooner. Barclamiu, I wish for you to address the concern which cause you to leave first and then come back. We aren't going anywhere and will be happy to see you return once you've made progress.
Like I said, I came back because of the Talossanity; it's impossible to leave Talossa. I have met nice people on here and Talossa is a space where I can freely express myself.
Now, I'll just try to manage my life outside and in Talossa which shouldn't be too much of an issue though.
Talossa is just... Talossa. It has the thing in it. Once you enter, you can't leave (in a positive way).
While, for historical reasons, I oppose any age bar higher than 14 years of age (and am very leery of the idea of "parental guidance", given how parents are the problem in many young people's lives), I am very interested in the idea of how to look after Talossans of 14-18 or even 14-21 better

This is true, and others have said this. But even if you can't quit Talossa, you can take a break. Have you considered regaining your citizenship, but being inactive for a few months?

I'm patiently waiting until there's (again) a citizenship petition, that is, if someone wants to make one.

I hope you'll reconsider Barclamiu, until you've faced the issues which caused you to leave. Especially considering your admitted difficulties controlling your internet usage and its effects on your studies. As I said, Talossa isn't going anywhere but the time you have now to right the course on whatever is happening personally is precious.

I mean I can be a citizen again, I wasn't really active on here anyway.
Yeah nah looks like I'm not regaining my citizenship anytime soon. Oh well.
Quote from: Barclamïu da Miéletz on January 30, 2025, 03:58:25 AMI wasn't really active on here anyway.
You've been here for roughly a year and made roughly 700 posts, which almost top 10, and the same average of posts per day as Miestră, the only two people with a higher average being AD and Breneir. You've also been pretty active on the Wiki and Youtube. If this isn't the understatement of the century I don't know what is:)
QuoteYeah nah looks like I'm not regaining my citizenship anytime soon. Oh well.
The earliest date someone can petition for you is February 10th, as indicated in the first post in this thread.

I think people have some reservations since you so recently renounced over being addicted to the internet. I'd say have some patience, but it does seem like you don't have much at your young age.

You got it wrong. You recently renounced your citizenship, no reason why. It's going to be a wonder you came back. So they'd be wondering if you won't run off again.
Pls give sometime, let them meet I know you'd be back soon.
Yeah, no judgement but I feel uncomfortable enabling someone with an addiction of any kind. It's not because you don't belong or you're not great - you are great, which is why I hope you get healthy!
There is a two month window during which a petition can happen. A lot can happen within two months and I'd advise you to show some patience and perhaps let us know how your life is developing.

It's not that serious though, not that I have to be desperately locked in rehab.

To be honest, I don't expect much to happen.
Quote from: Miestră Schivă, UrN on February 11, 2025, 06:06:48 PMI'd advise you to show some patience
I am impatient I guess, I can't really do anything about it, maybe I can.
I've been off work for a couple of months, but I think I'm on time for this post.
Barclamïu was the person who applied for my citizenship, something I'm very grateful for, and I would apply for his citizenship right now, because I believe in second chances.
On the other hand, Barclamïu, everything they've answered you above is correct. Maybe you're too young to understand it, but believe me, what they've told you makes perfect sense. Let a few weeks go by and focus on your life, which is the most important thing.
If you have problems with the internet, you can do many things, from setting time limits in your router for maximum connection per day, and your parents can help you control yourself.
Tell us how are you going in a few weeks, and I'll be happy to apply for your citizenship if no one else wants to. But first please, focus on your life. Talossa will be here when you get back.

I literally stole a road sign a few days ago. It wasn't even on the ground, I screwed it off with the help of a friend. I did put it back though.

Last time I knew someone in micronationalism who talked like this, she got entrapped by the Canadian Mounties in an assassination plot (https://www.vice.com/en/article/a-north-american-first-canadian-judge-rules-an-anti-terror-investigation-entrapment/)
I just got my semester report card. Turns out if I keep getting worse they won't hold me back and will instead throw me out of the school, it's how the law works here.
I mean it's my fault and those are the consequences.
Sounds like you need to get your act together a little bit.
If you do most of your internet stuff on your phone, then I recommend to you turn on the digital well-being settings that limit time on apps. If you use a computer, there are programs you can download to the same effect. If you play games, uninstall them.
Don't take refuge in self-pity. It's easy to say harsh things about yourself, because it puts you out of reach of solutions. But you're in charge, and you can change your life.
Every day is a chance for different choices.

Whatever, I'll just hope and pray that stuff will get better and that maybe I will regain my citizenship.
As an American, I am familiar with the strategy of hoping and praying. Every time there's some horrible incident, people like me demand stronger gun control laws. But I am informed that hoping and praying will fix the problem.
Changing things are what changes things.
The question is, do I deserve to regain citizenship?

I'll just stop complaining about myself online then.

Good question in my opinion.
I don't think it's normal that I started having dreams about me being a citizen again.
This is like talking to myself.
I know this will get progressively weirder.
S:reu da Mieletz,
What we are waiting to learn from you is if you are having better personal success. No one wants to contribute to a downward spiral that sees you quitting again. Also, we haven't seen you engaging in other topics and activities in Talossa, just this thread. That's not terribly encouraging considering the reasons you quit in the first place.

The only way you can reach out to me if you ever want to is through Discord.
There are a lot of places for immigrants to engage: their province, the Royal College, the TMT20 music festival, to name a few. You could continue working on your road sign program. There is life in Talossa outside of the immigrant boards.
Sadly I see you've decided to quit again. I hope this is just a moment of frustration as you were a valued citizen and would be again.

This was not what I meant Barclamiu. 😕 I meant take some time to address what is troubling you while being considerate of your internet use. You have brought great energy to the Kingdom but it should not come at the cost of your studies and family relationships.

That's not what Miestra said. She just wants you to take a second and breathe before taking all sorts of rash action.
We like you, Barclamïu. You have a lot of energy and clearly enjoy creating and contributing. I think most of us would be thrilled to have you back, we just want you to get things squared away in extra-Talossan life first because of the long-reaching effects those things can have on your future.
Can say that I realised that I can easily get back on track (?) I guess so perhaps it's safe to say that maybe not all hope is lost.
I want to regain my citizenship because I have lots of ideas that I want to share with other Talossans.

I think we're all waiting to be convinced that you're not going to have another crisis and renounce your citizenship within a month or so of having it restored. I mean, we'd all like you back in the fold, I think, if we knew that it would be good for you.
