  3. The August Revolution

    Great read. How I wish more people were willing to stand by their honor and do what is right above all else.

    -------------------------

    Related note - I once knew a good man, he was formerly known by the name of Pikajew. After he left Vox and returned to Bob under a new name, he joined GGA and was my friend. We talked a lot on IRC, and he was a pretty chill dude. He was discovered and (?)destroyed by the forces of One Vision.

    If you're out there and you are reading this, look me up. Though our friendship was brief, it was true.

  4. The Dawn of a new era for Sparta

    You really want to go there Necromancer V4L, like I told you when you surrendered to Karma and left the Order you made a choice. Plus from seeing the other side, you can see the Karma side of life.

    I made a choice to be myself, and I wish I had done it sooner. I'm on the 'Karma' side of things, and I feel fine.

    I take it I'm not getting an answer to my question? I'd really rather not accidently indirectly recruit a Spartan and not realize it.

    Sorry about that. From the discussions that we've had, "indirect recruiting" just boils down to whether or not the person poaching was doing so with malice or intent, through a manner not already listed.

    I've written a few essays on various forms of government, and seeing Sparta take a constitution with this level of detail, complication, and judicial process gives me hope that other Karmic alliances will follow suit.

    So many parts are great, but in light of the two following passages, may I make a recomendation?

    -----

    [individual Rights]

    1. All Spartans are equal before the law.

    [Membership]

    2. Nations over 10,000 NS may be granted a temporary exemption from switching colours, but any nation under that level must switch to the Black sphere before they can be considered for admittance.

    -----

    Perhaps note that all Spartans are equal, but larger nations are more equal than others?

    By the way, my favorite part is the Sovereignty section, which means that in the unlikely event Sparta should ever find itself on the losing end of a war, they would not accept the terms they imposed on the Order, specifically limiting our ability keep and sign treaties. It would be interesting to see this tested for what is now a standard surrender term.

    Large nations are not more equal than others. The original draft had a clause resembling that, and I fought hard to have it removed on that basis. It does not matter the size of the nation you bring forth, what matters is the will and fortitude of it's ruler and peoples. We did not want to create a state where new nations felt even more alienated from the world than they already do. 100k or 1k, the only thing that shall matter to Sparta is whether or not you are a true Spartan. Sparta does understand, as some have stated, that 10k ns nations most likely have a stable trade guild, and that may or may not be on black team. In these instances, it is for the benefit of all parties for that nation to remain on their team. They will be strongly encouraged to go black if their set ever falls through, and you know what they say...once you go black...

    And to be frank, Sir Paul, I'm still surprised the Order accepted the terms imposed on the Order.
