Seriously, what did you expect would happen? R/D peeps have been trying to raid Haven since before you made a country, and it always ends in screaming and complaining, with nothing being changed, Haven still being an RP region and R/D players looking like dicks to the RP community.

I'm going to submit "Repeal Commend the Joint System Alliance" to delay this.

I hope you can make final comments and approve this so that we won't have Liberate Haven on vote.

You know your sentence to me directly contradicts the implications to the person right below me, right?

You're asserting to me you're not implying you have the right to take their regions by force and at the same time you ARE telling them that it is the raider's right to try if they want to.

Burden of proof lies with the one calling out the claim, or did you not learn that in High School English?

The claim is that the region is inactive.

The people making that claim have to prove it.

That which is presented without evidence can be dismissed without evidence. Basic stuff.

TBH a great deal of the outrage stems from the unprecedented (I believe?) use of liberations as weapons to raid RP regions. Vulnerable RP regions have always been getting raided from time to time and those seem to have been largely tolerated.

Admittedly the whole 'RPers getting dragged into RD' thing is unavoidable because of the way the site's mechanics were built. RPers aren't so much being dragged into RD as they were (inadvertently, or not?) left inside the scope of RD as the site developed over the years. And that is a fundamental mechanics issue which, frankly, is better reserved for another thread.

And I might add that I personally consider a rectification of the game mechanics in that regard long overdue.

Why shouldn't it? I have no desire to run around screwing with people to get my jollies off, nor do I have the time to get involved in defending, there's always been an unspoken agreement RP regions are to be left alone

If you'll look at this thread and the explosion across NS itself you'll see why

See, only people who want to RP, RP.

Yet for some reason all of us should HAVE to be part of R/D, and it's controversial to say otherwise. Because reasons. Or something.

Hi,

What was the purpose of those 33 pages? The proposal was submitted seemingly without edit. Just wanted to bait I guess?
See if the law takes from some persons what belongs to them, and gives it to other persons to whom it does not belong.

"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

I am not saying that it was a rules violation, simply that I do not agree with the proposal in any manner whatsoever given the vapidity of the claims made in the proposal.

You seem to try and make me seem like I am against Mall, I am not, I am simply against the proposal itself.
