Message | Indeed it would be nice if space were owned by the people. But whether it is through the state or private companies, there will always be the middleman. Therefore, we should opt for the option which is better in another aspect - private companies deliver results. The government delivers only paperwork. |

Random fact: Players who consent to a particular role-play by acknowledging it in their own role-play cannot then disown it or withdraw their consent from it. For example, if player A role-plays the assassination of player B's character, and player B then acknowledges the assassination in a news post, but then backtracks and insists the assassination did not happen, then he will be required under the rules to accept the validity of the assassination role-play. |
