| Message | OOC: please don’t make up stuff and ruin the roleplay experience for everyone. I’d say there’s evidence that you’ve been trolling on this country for (in game) years now, and it’s not appreciated. This has nothing to do with our parties being in opposition, but I say this with everyone else in mind: please stop trolling, and let’s make this country fun for everyone. I truly want a serious governmental roleplay experience |

| Message | OOC: Please do not confuse IC with OOC and please do not label people as something. I don't think that is polite nor helpful. |
