Finally, if you insist on doing all that anyway, know that people will just ignore your input if you refuse to say by the roleplay's accepted rules. Nobody will bother with your input on other drafts, and probably wont engage you beyond reminding you of the resolutions you're violating.

It's your call, but noncompliance puts you in the position of playing with only yourself.

Guess a large majority of this game will just start "playing by themselves" as literally every nation violates at least one WA act.

The Federation of New Udonia has outlawed all forms of eugenics, including all forms of abortion, under Article 8 of the New Udonian Constitution.

The Federation of New Udonia is a sovereign nation, and thereby does not need to, and never will conform to WA resolutions which violate its constitution.

Simply write in a similar clause to your constitution, when the game issue arises, if you still want to outlaw it, you can and it will be under your official policies on your game's page. : )

Can I seriously do that while remaining in the WA? I won't get kicked or be in violation of any terms? Also, how can I make a constitution and have it apply to my nation?

Ooc: sure. Write one. Post it as a Factbook on your nation page.

I appreciate that you're more interested in playing the game than throwing a tantrum.

Not true. This plan cannot legislate, as WA don't allow it in repeal plans. Therefore, this plan would do nothing but repeal the"Reproductive Freedoms" resolution.

It does not legislate, but it provides a precedent for the idea of the WA having an obligation to respect life.

Part of my directive, and indeed part of C.D.S.P. culture, is confrontational aggression, intellectually or otherwise. I get no small amount of resistance against compromise on principle."

I grow my nails out if I want to scratch eyes, Ambassador, but kicking sandcastles will just get sand in my heels and dirty up my stockings. It's just not practical.

Regarding current legislation, the Elyreian lenton fails to agree with arguments made to approve a repeal. As such, our stance remains opposed to any repeal at this time.

I had to compliment my wardrobe with other local cultures that are within Elyreia's borders, as the Elyreian Women's fashion is very.... angular and militaristic...

Bell, almost out the door, stopped, turned, and looked at the Elyereian ambassador thoughtfully. Suddenly he shook his head, mumbled something that sounded like "Trevanyika" and left the debate hall.

Edit: Question: Do you think this plan would be upheld as legal if proposed? Also, would you sponsor it on the floor? I am thinking about polling the community, though I've seen other authors get attacked for doing so in the past.

The World Assembly,

REASONING that the World Assembly has a duty to protect life,

ACKNOWLEDGES that an unborn child created by a parent is living,

UNDERSTANDS that there are cases in which an abortion should be allowed,

REPEALS General Assembly Resolution #286 "Reproductive Freedoms" (Category: Civil Rights; Strength: Significant).

We are planing to officially propose this plan next week, should it receive adequate support in this forum.

A good reception by the community. If our Government is confident it will receive enough sponsorships to bring it to the floor, then we will propose the plan.

No. We believe the plan will get enough support. The only thing holding us back now are drafting and legality issues.
