| Message | If we're only letting refugees enter who are suffering extreme abuses, I think the it's in the government's interest to make sure they have clothes on their backs. A few LOD invested to get these people off on the right foot is a small price to pay for future productive residents rather than drifters. I suppose this is the penny wise pound foolish policies we expect from a government throwing millions of unneeded dollars at military boondoggles. |

| Random fact: Moderation will not accept Cultural Protocol updates which introduce, on a significant scale, cultures which are likely to be insufficiently accessible to players. In particular, for all significant cultures in Particracy, it should be easy for players to access and use online resources to assist with language translation and the generation of character names. Moderation reserves the right to amend Cultural Protocols which are deemed to have introduced significant cultures that are not sufficiently accessible and which are not being actively role-played with. |
