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...

The Administration Team has received a complaint regarding a recent post made by MadJack (AKA St George) in the Roleplay Discord Server. In this public post, MadJack pinged several users and asked them to sign up for a third-party ad watching site. The link MadJack provided contained a referral...

This thread is for two purposes. One, because emojis are not currently appearing in the post editor, which makes it hard to use them! And I just added a bunch of new ones so that is really a shame. So, this contains a master list that can be referenced until the post editor is fixed (SOON (tm)...

Happy Flag Day, everybody! Well, a little belatedly... it was technically yesterday. :P But that's okay - every day is Flag Day in our hearts. In case you missed yesterday's discord announcement, the first part of Flag Day is our 2nd annual "Fly the Flag Everywhere" challenge, in which you are...

ABC has filed and Bootsie has accepted, so I figured we should open a thread. I think we should consider a longer than typical briefing period for this r4r - I suspect a number of people may want to weigh in, and may need some time to do so. I, for one, would like to hear from the delegate...

This king, anyway!! :P Hello! I am SillyString, current chief justice and long time member of the court. I have written a number of rulings during my terms which I am quite proud of. I do not like to campaign for policy objectives that I will pursue as justice, because I think the Court is not...

We need to pick a Chief Justice!

I am SillyString and I am running for justice! For those of you who don't know me, I have served on the Court several times, both as chief justice and as associate justice. I have authored several influential court rulings, and I have written or amended many pieces of the law. In short, I would...

Why do we need to change forums? About a month and a half ago, Zetaboards announced an imminent forced upgrade to Tapatalk for all existing Zetaboard forums. A little bit more detail was provided in later announcements, which can be found here, here and here. Supposedly, the founder of...

Happy Manumission Day, y'all! To mark this auspicious holiday, I have here a draft bill that will keep us from ever having to celebrate it in the future. :tnp: :tnp: :tnp: Okay, I'm exaggerating a bit. :P What this really does is rework our structure of holidays. I've separated our current...

:tnp: :tnp: :tnp: HAPPY FLAG DAY :tnp: :tnp: :tnp: (Yes, okay, flag day was technically 4/26, but who wants to celebrate on some random Thursday?) Anyway, as a demonstration of TNP pride, we encourage as many of you as possible to change your forum avatars, discord avatars, and national...

I would like to present the following proposal and petition the Regional Assembly to take up discussion of this matter and, ideally, approve it. As some or all of you may know, I accidentally lost my citizenship recently due to lack of posting activity. When I applied to rejoin, I was rejected...

1. What law, government policy, or action (taken by a government official) do you request that the Court review? I would like the Court to review its own action in accepting the request for review filed by Lord Ravenclaw on November 28, 2017. 2. What portions of the Constitution, Bill of...

Many of you have probably seen this thread from Europeia. To summarize, the player known as Brunhilde has engaged in deeply problematic behavior, including misrepresenting their identity in order to lure other players into sexual and/or romantic activities. Brunhilde also used their position to...

So, as I mentioned on Discord, I really wish I'd paid a little more attention to the timing of the Friendship Fair, because it would have been perfect overlapped with this holiday. :P Nevertheless! I have a couple ideas on how to celebrate this one, so I would like feedback on them please...

HAPPY DEMOCRACY DAY!!! :tnp: :tnp: :tnp: Our beloved documents have made it another year! We have not rid ourselves of their shackles and plunged into merry anarchy! Hip, hip, hooray! This year is a special one: It marks point where our current Constitution has taken the mantle as...

Much as I would love to do another coup for this, for some reason I feel like that wouldn't be appreciated. :P So, how should we celebrate this holiday? Brainstorm! I want your craziest ideas!

HAPPY MANUMISSION DAY EVERYONE!!! :winner: A big huge thank you to Plembobria, Pallaith, Bootsie, Mystery Player, Goyanes, and Eluvatar for taking named roles! And thank you as well to everyone who joined in on the fun on the RMB! I think it was a blast. For anybody worried about the few...

This thread is for folks who were around for the original Pixiedance coup, in 2005, to share stories and swap tall tales from back then. The game has changed in so many ways, but many of us will never forget how it used to be. If you weren't around then, we invite you to participate as well...

Okay so with the Kickstarter well underway to produce a print copy of the Constitution and Bill of Rights, and the optional extras that include the Legal Code, I would really strongly like for the typos and mispunctuations in all three to be fixed up for publication. So I have done that. Now...
