Declaration on Griefing
Category: Declaration | Type: Declare
Proposed by: Evermoria | No forum draft​

The Security Council,

Defining the term "griefing" as any unprovoked action done with the intent of causing damage to a region,

Expanding the definition to include acts of psychological warfare done over the course of an unprovoked occupation,

Recognizing that any act intended to desecrate cultural artifacts, or the intentional erasure of history, are acts of psychological warfare,

Designates attempting any the following acts as falling under the umbrella of "griefing" when done over the course of, or at the conclusion of, an unprovoked occupation against an innocent region:

  • Ejection or banning of native nations from their native regions
  • Forcible closure of inter-regional embassies
  • Suppression of Regional Message Board posts published by native nations of a region
  • Defacing of, or changing entirely, a region's World Factbook Entry
  • Defacing of, or changing entirely, a region’s flag or banner
  • Premature cessation of existing regional polls
  • Removal or addition of regional tags
  • Creating regional passwords to prevent the freedom of movement
  • Permanent destruction of a region
  • Refounding a new region with the same name as a formerly destroyed region
Understanding that the practice of griefing is a time-honored cultural tradition among raider nations and seen as something to be sought and celebrated,

Disturbed by the trend of raider nations normalizing the practice of griefing,

Horrified by the long term damage that griefing causes a region,

Noting the time, labor, and resources needed to repair damage created by non-permanent griefing after the restoration of native regimes, such as:

  • Contacting ejected native nations and informing them of their ability to move back to their home region
  • Recovering a region's original World Factbook Entry, flag, or banner
  • Meticulously rebuilding any forcibly closed embassies
  • Tedious un-suppression of Regional Message Board posts


Particularly disgusted by the permanency of the unprovoked destruction and refounding of regions,

Gravely denouncing griefing as acts of terrorism to be shunned by civilized nations and worthy of condemnation by the Security Council,

Hereby declares griefing as an unforgivable war crime by the Security Council that serves a serious threat to international stability.

Overview
This resolution proposal is seeking to make a declaration regarding on griefing, which the resolution proposal refers to an unprovoked action done with the intent of causing damage to a region, including the use of psychological warfare.

Recommendation
The irony is not lost on this Ministry that the purpose of this resolution proposal is, um, largely for raider-defender operational reasons. There really isn't anything further to elaborate on.

For the above reasons, the Ministry of World Assembly Affairs recommends a vote Against the at-vote SC resolution, "Declaration on Griefing".

This declaration is drier than salted sand and duller than gritted mud. I am against it.
