War in-ability without a Valid reason Act

Postby Soniclia » Sun Feb 27, 2011 7:36 pm

It seems silly to delcare war on a nation without a valid reason. Nations should not be able to declare war on other nations without a valid reason.

Oh dear... have you read the rules on how to draft proposals and is this what you call a "proposal?"

Do you have a reason why this not a proposal?

Well, it's not written like a proposal, more like a blog post. It never defines "valid reason", etc.

It's actually more like a facebook post. :P Blog posts are usually longer and more thoughout out... not just a blurb.

Valid reason like, a country allowing production of dangerous nuclear weapons, a country mis-treating it's people, or mocking your country, ect. Not because you don't like the user name....

Then put that in your "proposal". Also, make sure that the proposal is legal because, since war isn't actually a part of NS, it's tricky to make sure that you aren't getting into forum RP stuff.

Ain't is a contraction for it is not.
This is illegal because it is metagaming and it is not written as a proposal.

If that goes into quroum, I will be invading Chechnya, the way old UN forumgoers would do it. So, if you want to think of the poor people of Chechnya, you ought to improve it with the best writing or dispose of it, because I will invade Chechnya anytime now.

-invades Chechnya-

Here you go, I got Chechnya. If you dispose of it or improve it, I will withdraw from Chechnya.

According to Wiktionary, it's a contraction of am, are, and is not. It's dialectical and informal, and certain cultural groups tend to look down upon its use.

Let's see, how is this illegal:
Optionality. Lacks any operative clauses, only a should.
Format. Lacks any actual substance, only a proclamation of silliness.
Category. Lacks any category.
Strength. Lacks any strength.
Bloody Stupid. 'Nuff said.
Honest Mistake. Either that or it's intentionally this bad...
Not sure, but possibly contradiction and/or duplication with Rights and Duties. Not bothered to look it up, though (the author sure didn't).
