| Date | 04:38:43, September 04, 2008 CET | From | Socialist Party of Aldegar | To | Debating the Military Technology Act of 2631 |
| Message | Our party deplores the use of chemical and or biological weapons in warfare. However, our party supports the research into the technology so that we know what forces we are up against who use these weapons. This will damage our military's intelligence and ultimately the victims of chemical warfare. |
| Date | 08:53:11, September 04, 2008 CET | From | Communist Party of Aldegar | To | Debating the Military Technology Act of 2631 |
| Message | After some thought, we have decided that the PAP is correct. We will switch our vote accordingly. |
| Date | 08:54:40, September 04, 2008 CET | From | Communist Party of Aldegar | To | Debating the Military Technology Act of 2631 |
| Message | We are voting against this, however, with the proviso that the research shall not be used to launch our own chemical weapons, as we believe that chemical weapons are beyond the pale of civilized warfare (if there is such a thing). |
