Message | Article 1: Chemical and biological weapons kill hundreds of thousands of people. The current law preventing Malivia from using those weapons on countries that haven't used those weapons on us makes great sense. If they have attacked us with chemical or biological weapons, attacking them with those weapons is justified. If they haven't, we are killing huge numbers of people that never did anything to us. Article 2: What about people who oppose the military? |

Random fact: Players have a responsibility to differentiate between OOC (out-of-character) and IC (in-character) behaviour, and to make clear when they are communicating in OOC or IC terms. Since Particracy is a role-playing game, IC excesses are generally fine, but OOC attacks are not. However, players must not presume this convention permits them to harass a player with IC remarks that have a clear OOC context. |
