| Message | Remove Article I and change Article III to the one that encourages instead of imposes and you have our votes. |
| Date | 15:08:35, October 13, 2005 CET | From | Social Calvinist Unionist Party | To | Debating the Ecology Act 2125 |
| Message | We agree with the DUP on what to change, but we would like it a step further. Take out article 5, since the local governments know how to treat their problems best. They actually LIVE in their dominion. Who do you think will know more, the people who live there, or big-wigs in Sondavita who have never even SEEN where those people live. And while we won't make a big fuss about article two if you remove 1 and 5, as well as change 3, we think you're going a bit too far with the environmentalism. |

| Message | I can go with the proposed changes for articles two, three and five, but I feel unable to compromise on article one. |

| Message | Is there no compromise option for hunting, like licensing? |
| Date | 19:55:47, October 13, 2005 CET | From | Redneck Party | To | Debating the Ecology Act 2125 |
| Message | Hunting and fishing are very needed since man continues to move in and take more and more of an animals habitat. Without it, overpopulation and lack of food will surely set in, and kill off many species. If there is to be any conservation, Article 1 must go, and we must vote against any thoughtless hippy ideas. |

| Message | DUP: no compromise option for hunting. Rednecks: Hunting and fishing are not needed, but grammer is (very needed?), and conservation is not killing, torturing and mutilating animals for the sadistic pleasure of some gun-totting lunatics. I am an environmentalist, not a hippy. The only thing I agree with the hippy on, is that there is nothing wrong with the human body or a certain three letter word. |

| Message | We see you took that proposal out. We can now support this.. |
| Date | 06:46:23, October 14, 2005 CET | From | Luthori Green Party | To | Debating the Ecology Act 2125 |
| Message | For the Rzeczpospolita, since I'd rather pass half a bill than none. I'd ban hunting later. |
