| Date | 18:34:27, March 09, 2017 CET | From | Nūī Sojiarisutisuku Pātē (NSP) | To | Debating the Furēe mākuto |
| Message | Not only are these proposals anti-Mikuni-Hulstrian, but would absolutely destroy this nation's way of life and our economy. You must know, you "Libertards", that this would ruin the nation and poison the soil with greed. I say that this group might as well be dismantled before they put forward more discustingly dangerous proposals. Elizabeth (II) Genn, Gennist Party Leader |

| Random fact: In cases where players introduce RP laws to a nation and then leave, Moderation reserves the discretion to declare the RP laws void if they appear to have fallen into disuse. In particular, please bear in mind that a player who is inexperienced with Particracy role-play and has joined a nation as the only party there should not generally be expected to abide by RP laws implemented by previous players who have been and left. |
