| Message | We believe that we should change the motto, to somthing that makes sense. Plus this nation should not be revoled around our wine. Something more isporational. |

| Message | Is that the way we want to remember our fore-fathers? As a bunch of inconsitant drunks? Know the party of Emblem may have not been here long, but any fore-fathers should be remembered. As John Gaia said in his famous fiction 'Planet Earth,' "George Washington was the Fore-father of America, he was a General as he faught in the war against the British. He will forever be remembered as a hero for fighting such a task." Now, I know Folk lore like this is not quite your favorite reading material, however John Gaia did have a point, just let that sink in a little. |

| Message | OCC: Okay, this "fictional Earth" stuff. Stop it. This is a rather main point in Particracy. There is no real world knowledge of Earth in Particracy. IC: I think you meant to say "inconsistant drunks" which I wholeheartedly disagree with. The forefathers of Kalistan were very consistant drunks. Secondly, your focus on their use of alcohol completely ignores their use of hashish, opium, peyote, and many other multi-functional and enlightenment substances,. of which, today, along with their modern equivalents, Kalistan is a major exporter. |

| Message | (OCC: Jeeze, lighten up) Drug use of any kind is wrong. Alcohol is wrong in large doses. What kind of a person are you? I believe I can answer that. Your a right-wing egotistical ass. you believe what ever was must stay. Get with the times, or stay in the dust. All these 'stimulants,' are they our best quality? I hope not. We have to have somthing better that decribes our nation. Little kids will grow up and honor a motto like that, instead of pointing at it and nameing off their favorite drink. It's just... wrong. |

| Message | *I*, a right-winger? Absurd. |

| Random fact: In cases where players introduce RP laws to a nation and then leave, Moderation reserves the discretion to declare the RP laws void if they appear to have fallen into disuse. In particular, please bear in mind that a player who is inexperienced with Particracy role-play and has joined a nation as the only party there should not generally be expected to abide by RP laws implemented by previous players who have been and left. |
