| Message | Article 2 is interesting embassy reform! The SDF is unsure about allowing any country to establish an embassy with out prior approval of the foreign office, however if the NPC can give a convincing argument why this is a better option we' certainy consider it. |

| Message | The Cildanian Republic is a small nation in Terra, embassies for all nations must be included. If we need to, the nation can be ejected. At this point, however, it will not harm us to invite all nations to have an embassy. |

| Message | But what about nations which we aready find unsavoury? Surely it couldn't hurt for them to go through at least a basic screening at the foreign office? |
| Date | 06:41:53, July 18, 2007 CET | From | New Progressives of Cildania | To | Debating the Embassy Reform and Banning of Child Porn |
| Message | Yes, but what exactly is the point of said basic screening? We should give all nations a clean slate with this, and how many enemies does the Cildanian Republic have? |
| Date | 10:48:25, July 18, 2007 CET | From | Union for Social Justice | To | Debating the Embassy Reform and Banning of Child Porn |
| Message | We agree with both articles but think the NPC makes bills with strange combinations of measures. |
| Date | 16:56:03, July 18, 2007 CET | From | Reform Party | To | Debating the Embassy Reform and Banning of Child Porn |
| Message | We dislike article 1, but we are ambivalent enough about it to ignore it and vote in favor of this measure. |
| Date | 21:21:29, July 18, 2007 CET | From | Justice League of Cildania | To | Debating the Embassy Reform and Banning of Child Porn |
| Message | Since exploiting children is illegal, porn depicting children is already illegal. And since involving oneself in pornography is only by consent, regardless of what is being depicted, all article 2 does is needlessly censor adult films. Please read the proposals more carefully before you start making sales pitches to the rest of the sheep. |
| Date | 23:38:50, July 18, 2007 CET | From | Reform Party | To | Debating the Embassy Reform and Banning of Child Porn |
| Message | Where exactly is the policy saying exploiting children is illegal? |
| Date | 03:06:24, July 19, 2007 CET | From | New Progressives of Cildania | To | Debating the Embassy Reform and Banning of Child Porn |
| Message | Yes, Justice League can you link to said policy? The law says all form of pornography is legal for adults, not some forms. This includes child pornography. |
