| Message | If a letter contained the only proof of innocence (or guilt) of a person tried for a serious crime, should he suffer (or walk away from) the punishment just because we are respecting privacy? Should a miscarriage of justice occur just because we do not want to embaress someone? |

| Random fact: Cultural Protocol bills must provide a real-life equivalent or short description for the ethnic groups, languages and religions contained in them, such that it would be easy for an unfamiliar player to understand (e.g. "Dundorfian = German"). Where appropriate, they should also provide guidance to players on where to find help with translations and character names. This might include, for example, links to Google Translate, Behind the Name's Random Name Generator and Fantasy Name Generators. |
