| Message | Your comment completely contradicts every you have just said. "We don't live in a diplomacy, we live in a democracy". You are seeking more diplomatic relations with other countries. Meanwhile, so far the majority of the parties which have voted have voted against, so if you were a champion of democracy and truly believed that we live in a democracy and not a diplomacy, you would vote against this bill. Once again only the bottom three parties of the nation thus far have voted in favour of this bill, a nation with eight parties. |

| Message | Are we done? Unless when you say "who are familiar with the language of this land" you are referring to the fact this country in the game has random different definitions for words, that no one is aware of. |
| Date | 00:12:17, April 30, 2015 CET | From | Hosian Socialist Party | To | Debating the Ratification of the Treaty on Fair Punishment |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, I would point out that democracy is a system of government and diplomacy is the broad term of referring to exchanges amongst foreign dignitaries. I would like to remind the choice party that diplomacy cannot be a form of government ie: you cannot have a diplomacy in the same way that you have a democracy. This is basic political science, Mr. Speaker. I yield |

| 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. |
