| Message | Mr. Speaker The RP support Articles 1 and 4. As well, are willing to support Article 3. We ask however for Articles 2 to be reevaluated. Article 2 is fair as is, is very fair, helping someone when there done and giving them a reasonable amount of time for them to get back on there feet, in addition abuse of the system is close to impossible. As such with the change proposed our nation's Welfare system can be easily taken advantage of and be used as a free ride. Because of this we ask that the Welfare system not change. |

| 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. |
