It's also still illegal, it's just finding new ways to be illegal. Also, the draft has very strange spacing.

OOC: I know, that was a very unwanted side-effect. I was actually rather looking forward to seeing the homelessness proposal that the OP spoke about , but we will see if that materializes.

They're hoping soon, my kind will drop and die
But I'm going to wave my freak flag high

OOC: It was their first attempt, I think. Shouldn't be further than page 2, or 3 at most, of the forum.

Mostly contradiction. Lots of it. Lots and lots of it. Inluding internal contradiction. Also some HoC and Bloody Obvious and Bloody Stupid. Some of those may not be real names of real Illegalities, but they're things that should be illegalities. Not kidding about tons of contradiction, though.

OOC: I dislike this even more. It's now just stupid. Monthly entries to the WA when the species can join at a whim, just being on a planet may mess up something due to assumed terraforming to allow long term studying, governments don't want to have to share their information or space centers, super telescopes, etc. This is just getting stupider with pretty much every revision.
