| Message | "The idea of criminals, duly tried and convicted for offences against the state and against the people of Zardugal, being allowed to vote- to influence our nation's government while still in the process of being punished for acting against it- is an aberration to myself and to all true patriots. The SNT will never support this." -Jordana Boskido, SNT Critic for Justice |

| 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. |
| Random quote: Although I understand and respect the intentions behind the gesture, this is not something that is universally understood or appreciated, and it tends to give out a negative impression of our party. ~ Anton Weinreich, General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party, pleading with his members to stop burning the national flag |
