Londo Mollari Posted April 11, 2009 Report Share Posted April 11, 2009 An Athens Announcement From this day forward, Athens hereby ceases the practice of EZI, or attacking a player after he/she rerolls for actions committed by a previous character. Any benefit that might be afforded by the proper application of this practice is not worth the pain and suffering (and loss of nations from the game) inflicted by its misuse. I decided recently to put this question to a vote in my alliance, and it was overwhelmingly opposed, with 78% of voters being against the practice. Some of you may remember that we withdrew our signatures from the ZI Peace Pact around 6 months ago. I would now like to re-add them. We won't be removing them again. We do not want to be associated with the monstrous abuses that are perpetuated by many alliances that practice EZI, nor do we wish to be guilty of committing them ourselves. It is at best a grey area which humans have proven themselves incapable of walking in with any measure of justice. The ZI Peace Pact Noting the recent controversies regarding the prosecution of Cyberverse citizens, Believing that the ability to restrict access to the Cyberverse entirely should be a power left only to God (read: Admin, blessed be his name) and his choir of angels (read: Mod Squad), Asserting that the practice of prosecution beyond the act of deletion detracts from the global community, The undersigned alliances, henceforth referred to as "the undersigned", do hereby pledge to this treaty: I. The undersigned agree to cease altogether the practice of Eternal ZI, defined as the act of maintaining a ZI sentence beyond the act of deletion. II. The undersigned agree to limit all ZI sentences to a single nation, extending it to no subsequent nations or alter-egos that may arise after the act of deletion and be connected to the original. III. The undersigned agree that actions carried forth by a person of the Cyberverse may be considered when judicating a crime committed after deletion and reformation. Alliances reserve the right to keep a close eye and a short leash on previously criminal individuals. /s/ for Athens Londo Mollari, Archon eponymos Rsoxbronco1, Archon basileus Jgoods45, Theorodokos Lonpeo, Polemarch Dragon, Agoranomos /b/ tard, Agoranomos an4rk, Dikast john jalapeno, Dikast Medtech, Didact Hobbies0310, Hierophant Max Rockatansky, Demitheorodokos Nitemarebforcrismas, Demitheorodokos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
