Welcome to the Global Right Alliance's forums!

Firstly, you can only see a very limited amount of the forums at the moment. You will be able to see the full forums and properly participate in our region and its community when you register.

Join our Community

Now, on to the region itself. Don't let the name, specifically the "Right", fool you. We've got members from across the political spectrum, and our political parties have always reflected this. The Global Right Alliance (GRA), as primarily a gameplay region, has been everything from an anarchy to a monarchy to a homegrown rotatorship. The region has had such governments because of its culture, which adores political intrigue and thrives on confrontation. With the increase of the region's population, many veterans have returned. It is the beginning of a new Global Right Alliance and a new government system.

I know the forums can be quite intimidating; there's people who have been here for nearly a decade and have over 10,000 posts. However, we welcome new members and encourage them to get involved. If you want help finding your way around, we have resources to help you to get on your way.

Tbh, this has not really come as a real shock due to the fact people have been saying we are going to come under attack again following 7/7, but what did take me by surprise was the fact that most airports in the country have been shut down, effectively putting the UK in Lock Down...

Yeah, but in fairness the bombers were going to board in the UK before going to america and blowing themselves up so really you would only expect the UK airports so shut in order to stop them boarding.

Intelligence has nothing to do with politics. Posts: 435 Group: Resident Member #410 Joined: August 9, 2006	All US flights have been under massive delays, especially international. Also according to diphead Bush the US is sending Air marshalls to all flights coming into the US. I guess British Airways can't do it themselves. Another reason for the delays. Glad I am too poor to go anywhere.
