| Message | We agree to these proposals, this bill has our support. OOC: Have you taken into consideration changing the nation to "Volksrepublik Dorvik"? Since it has Dorvik in it is allowable, unless you want to leave it at English. While I still want to change the flag. Something about it itches me. It just seems too plain. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, Compelling citizens to register their race and religion is unnecessary and potentially incredibly divisive. We cannot support that. OOC: I prefer English titles, but will listen to what other players have to say. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, We don't agree with Article 4. OOC: I prefer English too |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, This law is being thrown around thanks to your governments. You insist it is not needed, while things as simple as population numbers is what this law takes care of. Its simple politics. Its not meant to do what you insist is does. OOC: Just because you cannot relate to a certain language or culture does not mean you should ignore the fact that you play in a nation with that culture and language. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, The race and religion is only to help further determine the overall minorities of the nation, we will add a sub-article stating that this will not be used for discriminatory purposes at all, and add further stipulation that anyone who uses this law to discriminate be tried before the Dorvik Supreme Court. |
| Date | 09:12:37, January 28, 2011 CET | From | Nationalen Freiheitliche Bund | To | Debating the New Communism Act I |
| Message | OOC: Disagree with article 4, and although I'd prefer to keep the names in English I guess NSPD has a point so I'll vote in favour of those. |
| Date | 21:43:03, January 28, 2011 CET | From | Schwarze Adler Verein | To | Debating the New Communism Act I |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, I'd like to point out that Article Four has been removed and will be brought forward at a later date. |
| Date | 00:02:44, January 29, 2011 CET | From | . | To | Debating the New Communism Act I |
| Message | OOC: I think it is possible to respect Dorvik's historical German-Russian culture without necessarily changing all the nation's official titles to German language names. After all, Dorvik has had English language titles since before most of us here joined the game. |

| Message | OOC: Again, just as said before, just because you cannot fully adapt to the language, please just vote yes for it, if you need help with language or anything, google translate or myself. |
