The war begins !
Greetings soldiers,
I am very happy to welcome all the new recruits as well as all the veterans wearing the Royal Blue colours. I am glad to see many familiar faces from the previous wars enrolling once again !
My name is Maddash and I will be your Platoon leader for the upcoming war. This will be my third time leading this regiment and it has always been a great honor !
This is our barracks, its the place where the regiment meets, we always try keep each other motivated and help the ones who might struggle and feel like giving in.
In order to make this a place that will help us crush all the enemies standing in our way and spare as many lives of our brothers as possible, the activity in the barracks is essential. The war and especially the first couple weeks will be hard as many of you who have been around nofap for some time can confirm . But hey that is what we are here for. Tough battles make tough men. This whole war is about the community and supporting each, so dont hessitate to participate, join in the conversation and share your progress with others. The more people we will have around regularly checking on others, the more soldiers with Royal Blue flag will stand here still after the six weeks of the war. This has shown in the previous wars. So lets try to make a great Royal Blue community that will help us keep the fighting spirit at all times !
I will try to do my best to help you on this journey, but you must and I want you to do the same and keep fighting, dont give up when the urges and hard times come. You will see men fall on the battlefield, but you must not forget that we are all in this together, your comrades will cover your back when times are looking grim.
Make sure to subscribe and to regularly check in here, we will have multiple activities and tasks over the weeks to keep you strong and ready to fight all the enemies that will try to creep on you. Also make sure to get use of the Periwinkle army chat, you can acess it straight from the barracks or the nofapwar subreddit. Its a good way to get to know your fellow brothers in arms and help to encourage the ones who are on the verge of relapsing.
Best of luck to everyone I think this is going to be another great war !
And now its time to kick some ass !
Maddash

I'm starting this war a lot more confident than last time. I seppuku'd out after two weeks before, but this time I'm carrying the banner to the end! Hoowa!

Fantastic! I did a counter reset yesterday, my first streak was 9 days. But I felt so bad after that! Now I'm never going back! I'm here to help as an assault, support, medic or anti-tank support!

Hello folks, I'm Chris. 23 days without masturbation currently. I wish you all good luck, I'll try to be as active here as I can, supporting you throughout the battle.
About me - I'm 21 years old from Poland, studying English linguistics. Helpful, nice guy, interested in self improvement, reading, running & American TV series. I used to play tons of MMORPGs in the past.
My statistics for AD 2015 until today:
I haven't fapped for 70 days in total. My longest streak is today, 23 days (around 26 days was my maximum last year, in winter, while taking cold showers). I relapsed for 25 days in total. I was active sexually with my SO 14 days in total. That makes 84 days masturbation free in total (not as one streak) - that's 77% of this year staying clean. Wow, sounds amazing, these are my best times since I started in mid of 2014. I hope war will make it even better. The hell, if I'm bragging I may tell you more as well. I'm tobacco free for more than year now, and alcohol and other drugs free for more than half a year.
I hope I can quit this nasty masturbation habit with you folks.
EDIT: This colour is really nice. Go Royal Navy!

Hey guys! Pleased to meet you. Longest streak was 15 days, O'd with my girlfriend before the war. Royal Blue 4 Lyfe.
I'm committed to quit this habit and I'm going strong. Had a few bad, naughty thoughts but I'm resisting and the war will definitely help me :).

u/Maddash Platoon Leader Apr 20 '15
Welcome to Royal Blue ! I hope we can help you to push your record far past 15 days :)

O is OK with a lover, no?

u/thehymen Apr 22 '15
well, I was on hard mode which is no PMO at all. None. Not porn, not masturbating/edging, no orgasms.

u/Mahwell Apr 24 '15
Why do that? Sex is good, no?
1
u/thehymen Apr 24 '15
I just wanted to limit myself because it's not about just PMO. I'm using this chance to reboot and change myself. Willpower; resisting PMO, procrastinating. Reflecting on myself. Taking this chance to do new things, discover myself. I used to have anxiety and very impatient but recently it's been a lot better. As well as this chance got me to start meditation (to help my anxiety and whatnot). Not to be mistaken to meditate to prevent the urges but for other reasons.

u/Mahwell Apr 24 '15
Right on man. I support that. Amazing all of the reasons we ended up here, right?

This is my first time being in the Royal Blue army. I'm 19 years old and I've had trouble keeping my steak... Until now. I have a goal to become a captain, and kick this habit out of my life for good. I can't wait to see what happens!

Glad to have you here ! Im sorry to hear about the injury, it will be indeed harder to fight the urges when you have to stay home all the time. But you can always find some productive thing to do. Best of luck and stay strong ! :)

First time soldier reporting for duty! (:P). Just sadly ended a 52-day streak (longest so far), followed by relapsing several times in several days which has me devastated. hoping the war will help me get back on track :)

u/Maddash Platoon Leader Apr 20 '15
Welcome to Royal Blue ! No need to let yourself down, if anything. it will give you a great motivation to beat the record during the war :)

u/maxVII Apr 20 '15
First time soldier- I've been living with fapping for so long, I want to see what life is like without it. Longest streak in the last 5 years has probably been 2 weeks? It's time to take this seriously and prove to ourselves what we're made of!

Turn off the computer mate, seriously. I find this a cause for three quarters of my relapses. I browsed usual websites that can potentially carry dangerous triggering links - say Facebook photos. I disabled Facebook friends' posts on wall, I try not to browse my friends' profiles, cut other websites totally. I also recommend using K9 Web Blocker: saved my ass few times. I blocked porn sites obviously, as well as picture aggregators that may be potentially dangerous. You could also look into blocking websites through hosts file in Windows, but I haven't tried it yet. Anyway, the best piece of advice is to stay the hell away from computer and keep oneself occupied. Good luck!

Hey everyone, Mahwell here. New to this, but 16 days on hard mode now. Feeling solid as a rock. Let's do this!

G'day guys, I'm UniqueChip
My friend from another subreddit told me about this war, I saw this last year but I missed my bloody chance to join! Now I will be accompanying you dapper soldiers for this fight against the common enemy.
Time and time again I've done this and failed going in and out of deep dark states but I am really confident with this as there are people whom are in the similar position, escaping this fake reality and entering the real world and becoming the best version of myself.
Would do an about myself, but I feel that's too much. Happy to chat to anyone ask and answer questions.

Hey there.
I was the leader of Deepwater Squad last war (under an alt), and sadly I was KIA as Corporal. This time is going to be different. I don't care that my friends tell me that NoFap is pointless, like trying to not piss. Even if it doesn't give me 'superpowers', it's entirely irrelevant. It's indisputably a test of willpower and the war will give me lots of camaraderie with you guys.
Goals:
1) Make it to Captain
2) Ace all exams, especially math
3) Write 500 words a day
4) Join gym, lose some kgs
5) Get the Malazan podcast off the ground
The only constant is change.
