The surprice of this was, because atleast i was naive and really thought and hoped to have good start with Melhed.

^This and that I expected something different as a change. To destroy everything is just what everybody does. Would be nice to have a different story to tell.

I can find out how to send the game there when needed.

This one seems to be also one people use at Brazil.

Who is whining?

I am disappointed. I was really expecting a different end.

When Maya said she wanted to sign a treaty it was implicit and explicit that she didn't want the regions to be destroyed.
It seems to me now, that she was only gaining time to complete the destruction.

I expected something different after all talks. That's all. To destroy everything is just so childish... *If I can't have it, nobody will!*

I'll repeat: I would rather tell the player to apologize and move on but, if that kind of phrase lead to a discussion like this one, than we need to think if there is a flaw in Social Contract.

In the last two weeks we had 10-12 pages discussion about two issues: whether Facebook is or not bounded by same rules we have here, whether we can or not accept racism or discrimination IC.

Is not a 74 pages contract, neither a lot of laws but, perhaps is one more line at the social contract IF, and only if, the magistrates conclude that is reasonable to take this to Tom.

Baatarsaikhan, I misunderstood what you said and I apologize for that.

If so, I think you need to have a very firm basis and legal logic to the path from social contract item through to this particular issue of racism, since it will be precedent from now on.  A clear link between casual racism and the contract would be needed, since you are de-facto linking that to Tom and the Social Contract.

No, I am not. I am exposing my opinion on that matter and saying that I don't know why there's anything against racism and discrimination  in Inalienable Rights or in Social Contract. IMO it should be. That's why I brought Tom's name here.
IMO if the magistrates find a flaw in Social Contract they could/should take it to Tom so next time there would'nt be the need of a discussion.

I see no point in longs discussions here. Denounces here should be simple to decide. It IS a game. We are not deciding the future of the world.

But it is clear to me that my opinion differ - and much - from majority here.

The magistrates' work here is to ensure that everyone can play without problems. For this it is necessary to enforce the rules and when they are not clear, discuss cases and establish precedents or, if appropriate, lead to the conclusion of the case for Tom to be established new rules or addendum rules.

There are cases where there are well defined rules, where it is either black or white, without the hundreds of shades of gray.
There are cases where it is necessary to take into account the small variations.

Racism is racism. There is no small degree of racism. Just how dirty is dirty. No half dirty or clean half. What are, is controversies about what defines racism because there is disagreement between what defines race and what defines discrimination.

If among all the nations of the world has not been possible to reach an agreement, is not it here that we can.

This is a game. Players should be able to play and have fun. If a letter like that causes embarrassment, should be modified and this should not be a problem.

This should be as IR.

Racism should be banned. Endpoint. Any form of racism, any suggestion, any message that suggests discrimination.
Discuss whether or not there was no racism and not if one was offended or if there is a greater or lesser degree of racism.
And if there was racism, then there was guilt.
The size of the penalty then, can and should be discussed and varied according to how much there was injury.

Incidentally, I do not understand why there is nothing about discrimination or racism in IR.

Here's my question: why must the in-game race have both slanted-eyes and be yellow skinned? Why not have red-skinned natives with slanted eyes, and yellow skinned with big noses, etc? Why must an SMA continent have natives whose features match those of real-world groups?

Let's show some creativity, people! Mix and match!

This is the point. You can use whatever you want, but don't need to make it look like real life or make people feel not comfortable with it.
As for rape and killing, we had a long discussion about this before and what we could agreed (more less) at the end of it is that what is bad is to picture the rape and killing and not the act itself.
