| Message | the money is being invested on things that everyone needs ESPECIALLY BUSSINESS, you can't have bussiness with no form of communication! You can't have legal bussiness if crime rules! You can't have bussiness if the people can't do what you want because they don't have the education! You can't have bussiness if your employees keep dieing from easily preventable diseases! |

| 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. |
