The Countess of Montijo was arrested... as usual ,we give back the position. EVERYONE knows that.
Riombara used to do that, too. For years. But Riombara changed its laws because they created situations that required placeholders, which are prohibited.
You don't get to have realm laws supersede the game's rules.
It doesn't matter how many people "know" what you do, or how long you've done it—if it's against the game's rules, it's got to stop.
Finally, if you'd just gently reminded the person in the position of the realm's laws, there's a good chance you wouldn't even have been removed from your positions, let alone gotten a 3-day account lock (And it is just 3 days; your account isn't permanently locked). But you didn't. You
threatened to run for Judge specifically in order to ban them if they didn't step down.
That's so, so very wrong.
