Don’t you know that rmb rules in rejected realms is almost the same as xkis?

Almost, not the same.

At least I can post after 30 minutes.

This is exactly true. The rule was put into place in order to keep the RMB free of spam and enable regional messages to be seen by everyone. We have plenty of places where spamming is allowed and even encouraged.

Can't send a message after 5 days with one letter just cause you sent another message before is ridiculous

Alright. So, the double posting rule is put in place to avoid people posting about the same thing multiple times rather than using a single post. Example:
"I made a dispatch."
"It's about koalas."
"Do you like it?"
Instead of:
"I made a dispatch about koalas. Do you like it?"
The lines get blurry when they are on different topics. Usually, we let them slide if the 2 topics are different, as merging them into a single post with the edit feature wouldn't make any sense. Because of this, I have unsuppresed one of the posts.
Also, more generally, all posts must contribute some meaning to the conversation that is different from your previous posts. Hence, why double posting on different topics is generally fine (3 or more posts is definately not allowed though). Also posts for the sake of posting (like "Is anyone online") are not allowed, because they don't contribute anything to the conversation.
EDIT: Also, below is my guide to enforcing RMB rules. It's a pretty useful guide that applies almost all the time, so I'd recommend giving it a read.
A collection of stuff that can be used when you want to remind someone of our rmb rules.
1. Aim to create a friendly reminder. In my opinion, the most important part, and which the other sections expand on. Being friendly helps nation retention and avoids scaring new nations, especially first time offenders.
2. Link the rules dispatch (here). A lot of people break the rules because they don't know them. Linking it will help solve that!
3. Explain why the rule exists. People are much more likely to follow a rule that makes sense to them. Plus, it makes your posts even more friendly.
4. If someone refuses to co-operate after 2 reminders, you should alert a moderator. DO NOT UNNECESARILY ENGAGE THEM PUBLICALLY IF THEY HAVE NO INTENTION TO FOLLOW THE RULES! It just adds to the issue.
5. If it's about double posting (bolded because it's the most common offense), try to show them how to edit their posts and offer to help them if they don't know how.
Thanks for reading, and thank YOU for helping create a better RMB :)

Our RMB is active enough that there will certainly be some kind of post within 5 days. And also, why would you want to post an RMB post with just one letter? It doesn't contribute to any conversation and isn't meaningful in any shape or form

It's just a example.

See below:
If such a situation were to arise, then something positive to do would be to make a post that contributes something to the conversation. Something as simple as "How was everyone's day?" or "What's the weather like where you are?" would be ways to make the RMB more active and a better and more positive place at the same time.

That's still a bad rule in some points, I can't say "Who is online" ? How I'll know who is online on the RMB without sending this?

Man I don´t have a idea of the rmb because I new in this can you explain it? thanks

Why would you need to know who's online?
Sure thing! The RMB (regional message board, the thing you're posting on right now) is a way for nations to chat with each other in a region. We have some rules and an FAQ below:

Also, if you're new to our region, I'd recommend checking out our welcome guide, which is linked below:
Welcome to 10000 Islands! If you're new to the game, you're probably wondering what all of the site features are and how they work. You'll find that NationStates is a seemingly simple browser game with a rich community and a depth of features and game play developed by players over the course of almost 18 years. 10000 Islands is one of the oldest regions in the game, dating back to 2002, with a continuously operational defender military and active regional government. Opening Steps The first thing you'll want to do, if you haven't already, is to answer your issues. In NationStates, you function as the all-powerful leader of your nation and Issues are how you effect your government's policy and national statistics. Issues are the only way to effect these and you'll have to wait for more issues once you've answered them all. To learn more about issues, you can check out the 10000 Islands While you wait to receive more issues, you should join the World Assembly (WA). Joining the WA requires that you input your email address on the settings page (know that your email will not be visible to other users and NationStates does not send you spam emails!). Joining the World Assembly is important because it grants you a say in developing international law through the General Assembly and preserving international peace through the Security Council. More importantly, joining the WA grants you citizenship in 10000 Islands, which allows you to participate in elections and run for office. Once you've joined the World Assembly, be sure to endorse the World Assembly Delegate Astrobolt. Endorsing the Delegate gives the region more power in the World Assembly because the Delegate's vote is weighted so they receive an extra vote for each WA endorsement they have. You can also decide how the WA Delegate votes once you're registered on the forum by After you've done that, you can get involved in our regional community by signing up for the The last thing to do is join our regional Once you've done these four things (answer Issues, join the WA, sign up on the forum, and introduce yourself on Discord), you're all set! From there, take your own path and discover what about 10000 Islands interests you. The rest of this Dispatch is an index of guides and resources for you to look at. Guides and Set Up

I agree
Valentian Elysium, Porflox, The Galactic American Imperium, The Democratic State Of Josora, and 2 othersPogba, and Jumbovisma
If I know who's online, I can send them messages now or later, depending on if they're online or not, so I don't need to wait minutes or hours to they answer me
If I know who's online, this would take like 30 seconds or 2 mins max

I started playing recently too, little by little I'm understanding but I have a lot to learn so any help is welcome

Perhaps, but the RMB isn't a place for you to talk to one person. The more general=more activity=better. If you start off with "How is everyone?" you'd get a much more general and much more positive conversation that "How are you NATION A?"

The same thing works if I want to talk with 2/3 nations and they're offline or online

Hey there! Yeah, the game is pretty complicated despite its initial simplicity. Also, we have a rule against posting twice on the same topic (because you can just use the edit button to add more to your previous post).

OK thanks

I’m back
We’ll, it’s usually best to start off general, then move into specifics when following up to others people’s responses. We are a region with nearly 2000 nations. By only talking to a few people, you’re leaving hundreds out :P
