I'm fine with you colonizing those areas, but Matty and Naru should see the plans.
As for leaving UBSR, my point wasn't that people should leave UBSR because I don't like the idea of them having states which are nothing but name tags on a map. The point was for them to become full UBSR members instead, so we can have a big, unified socialist society on Blacraft to cooperate and have fun, which we all take part in managing for our collective good. If people absolutely need to have name-tag-states I still prefer that over many simply isolated single-player-like states around Blacraft. But I would have hoped that the region and municipality options would be enough for people, which I see nothing wrong in being managed by single players. I would have liked to see the states correspond more to the political reality of Blacraft, and be used in more clan-like-ways.
