MessageWe do not need more Parliament members.

OOC: Do I have to go through the explanation of how the game mechanics work an how you will get the same percentage of the total seats no matter what is the amount of seats is?

MessageOOC: I am not stupid, i know that enlarging the chamber will do nothing except make it easier to win seats, the entire reason behind enlarging the chamber is to make our country seem more important and to make smaller parties feel better, if we doubled the amount of seats then the world party would have gotten 10 or 11 seats instead of 5.

I am trying to help new parties settle in, and would thank you very much if you would give someone a chance to do that.

P.S. I got more seats than you. so maybe you should lighten up a bit and stop trying to argue with parties that are bigger, better and more powerful.

MessageOOC: Larger party does not make it more powerful or better. You need to lighten up a little bit. I am just trying to explain to you that it doesn't make any difference. I don't know if you know it or not. I can't guess that either until you tell me you do know it. I don't care the reason behind it, that's your problem and your propaganda, I do not care about that. Again, I don't want to argue with you and please don't include comments such as "stop trying to argue with parties that are bigger, better and more powerful" because they are not constructive at all. I have been here longer than you and you don't see me saying that as a way to prove my point. The powerful part, I still don't know where you got it from. In summary, I didn't attack you or your intelligence, please don't attack me, there is no need to, especially in OOC
