Welcome Comrade Vev, the Party is overjoyed with your decision to join the Hive. As for public positions, the Party certainly will be able to accommodate a faithful communist such as you.

Hopefully I would be contributing to the newsletter with various manufactured heroic uplifting propaganda articles and regular work for the Hive schemes communal events.
BTW how does one do a strikethrough text?
EDIT: Thanks

Thank you Comrade Jam, the will of the lights the path to our factions glorious future, I am honored that I can be one of the candles that makes socialism all that much brighter.
As soon as the private forums are running I will call the first meeting of the People's Ministries and the Central Continuing Committee to discuss the future of our march to communism. This historic event will lay the foundation of our glorious faction.
In the mean time Comrade Jam, the Party would be honored if you would accept the position of Acting Commissioner of Foreign Relations until such a time as the CCC is able to hold proper elections for the post.

Most gratefully Comrade Chairman, but I hope that while we are still on the Unity, we do not encounter any foreign groups. I fear that when we reach Alpha Centauri that the crew may split permanantly into factions. We must do our best to unite the people for their own safety - then we shall see how important this task is.

True Comrade, but even as we speak capitalist and imperialist forces try to plot out demise. Some of the Unity crew have even attempted to turn our own people against us, these enemies of the people who shall be left unnamed must be carefully observed for I fear your prediction will become reality if we cannot keep such forces at bay.

Good work! 
Especially the poll included
Now, since the private fora aren´t up yet, we have to wait for the other factions to catch up with us in their struggle to find a leader!
The first step is done, and it is already obvious that the hive will be superior to it´s brother´s systems...

Comrade Jam,
Excellent work on the Pravda Special Edition.  The Collective needs strong voices who aren't afraid to speak the truth.

The same people who are attacking the Consciousness may be attacking us as well. We should work with them to investigate this matter.

I suspect the wrongdoers are the same people that frauded your elections with their gifted computers: the University of Planet!

 Who leaked our computer technology? I issued strict orders that they were to be kept within our area of the ship. Oh well, at least it proves that the programs designed to screw up unauthorized users work...

Um... no. I'm stating that owing to somebody leaking our computer systems (can't have been anything else, since I never authorized anyone to give the systems away), anybody who used them for any purpose would have been screwed up. Hence, faulty election results and the like. Low rankings for threads if you hooked the computers up to that section of the UNS comptuer networks...

Simple solution, why don't all the Hive members vote it as 5, and push it back up?

If anyone's interested the Civ2 Demo Game also has a PRAVDA which can be found here.
Drogue - nice idea, but how does one do that? (And do the Hive members care enough to find out?)
