A permanent ban from TNP with no opportunity for a second chance has always been reserved for the worst offenders. By and large, we believe that people can learn from their experiences and grow to become better than they were, and that the statements someone makes when they are a teenager do not...

I think we are generally of the same mind, then - what you are describing sounds extremely reasonable to me, and I am 100% on board with banning fascist imagery, the glorification of fascist and nazi history, and advocacy of genocide etc. This is a difficult but necessary topic to wrestle with...

This post has been moved to the correct thread. This post has also been seen and admins are aware that this information has been requested. I specifically note this because I am not responding to the contents of this post. Details of a moderation investigation and discussions among moderation...

I can't speak for the admin team (meaning that I haven't asked anyone else what they think, and not that the answer is no), but I would certainly view someone saying either that you specifically or that Jewish people in general should be dispossessed as a form of hate speech (for lack of a...

"Toxic" is a word that gets thrown around a lot at the moment, and I have found it to be one whose meaning is difficult to pin down. It seems to depend a lot on the speaker and the context, and not everything that gets called toxic is actually something that merits a ban. So I don't really know...

Spreading hate is an action. I personally think the hyperfocus on fascism somewhat misses the point. Racism, homophobia, misogyny, ableism - yes, these are generally components of a fascist's worldview, but they are also not exactly uncommon among society as a whole. I don't think anybody here...

Done. Pretty sure I didn't give any non-citizens the ability to post votes but keep an eye out for that...

Just residents, or the general (perhaps unregistered) public?

I hate to be a pill, but a deputy speaker actually cannot appoint additional deputies. Any such deputies would not be government officials, as they have not been appointed by a CMEO, and thus swear no legally binding oath. Not only has the court ruled that taking the oath for government service...

I do not share the desire of some of my colleagues to decline to take a stance, so I'll go ahead and weigh in here: Personally, I think this recall motion is absurd, and I will vote against it if it gets that far. Moreover, I am not sure what part of "protecting the privacy of the involved...

Answer has not changed. Still cannot find it.

Your honor, in light of the fact that the attorney general has dropped the charges against our client without allowing us to definitively establish their innocence, I would like to request that this deposition be included in the official trial record, per the normal rules of evidence. Such an...

I would like to note for the record that it is not possible to drop charges "with prejudice".

Because citizenship is a right afforded to the nations of The North Pacific. Nations do not lose the right to their citizenship simply because the delegate does not like them, does not trust them, or does not want them to be citizens. The current language in the legal code, as well as the court...

The defense agrees with the request to reduce the charge of Gross Misconduct to Conspiracy to Commit Gross Misconduct.

Is it better now? I've been playing with the settings to try to make it look good when viewed at the top of the page and hovering when scrolled down. Replaced margins with padding so the blue goes the whole way. I have spent quite some time looking for this setting and I swear to flemingovia I...

I've knocked it down to 2%, and added 2% on the right as well. Any better?

Hm, ok. You are right, I did not add any right-side padding. For left, I did 3% - meaning that the amount it pads will scale based on screen size. I did also notice that it pads posts in threads more than it pads the list of forums. Not sure why that is, but probably a setting I missed...

Yes! I have successfully added a bit of padding on desktop, and as best I can tell it has not harmed mobile browsing (aka I pulled it up on my phone and it looked OK :lol: ). Please let me know thoughts - too much padding, too little?

Approved, with the stipulation that you add a line break between "Conclusion" and the conclusion. Y'know, to match the rest. :D

I would ask that the court hold off on accepting the above request for the time being. The defense is engaged in negotiations with the prosecution.

Not sure where to put this but this thread seemed most relevant? I have changed maskings so that admins can no longer edit posts in the courtroom. Justices should still be able to do so, and obviously we will temporarily restore edit power if necessary to handle a disciplinary situation. I...

Is it a "cool mind" that advocates for the maximum possible sentence (an indefinite ban on citizenship) over a poorly executed infiltration attempt with practically no chance of succeeding? A million dollar punishment for a two buck crime fits nobody's idea of justice, and to be quite honest...

Looks like Zyvet did move the deliberation thread in here. I've read the portion about sentencing and it does look like the point of falsifying evidence only came up once, and did not form a large portion of the decision. They seemed more broadly to be focused on the similarities and differences...

I have thoughts! I was gonna quote the whole thing and do in-line changes but apparently quoted quotes still disappear so ugh. <_< Change to title of ruling to better describe the situation, also made the drafted line small in line with prior rulings. Existing wording seems awkward. Suggest...

I have come around to supporting this idea. However, as much as I like the idea of a bar or some sort of qualifying exam, I'm not sure about the practicality of implementing one and I definitely don't think we should write that change into the law before that has been done. Otherwise, we run the...

Good catch. I believe we have generally (?) tried to have usergroups be the same color on all themes, for consistency and ease of keeping track who is a citizen, foreign representative, government official, etc. The new dark theme uses different colors than the one on ZB, so the colors used in...

Seenvorland, I think this was a remarkably eloquent post and I agree wholeheartedly with you.

I will see what I can do re: padding. The major issue is that I am not a professional website designer and it is a challenge to balance side padding with mobile functioning. On the original forum I went with side padding, in the interest of mimicking the ZB skin as closely as possible - and it...

Sorted! @bootsie Elu is correct, screenshots of anywhere you're seeing issues would be ideal.
