I've noticed an increasing number of rogue states (aka n00bs and idiots) acquiring the technology of gravitics (usually without any research or trade RP), and giving it something of a bad name and 'clichéd' status through ridiculously bad RP.

Hence, I hereby propose to form the IGTA, or International Gravitics Technology Agency, something like the IAEA in real-life, except with regard to gravitics rather than atomics, and with the power to bring military smackdowns on offending nations. The idea, of course, is to restore the RP 'good name' of Menelmacar's signature technology (which I was the first nation on these boards to develop and use) and simultaneously increase the quality of RP on the boards. IC reasoning, of course, would be to prevent the proliferation of this technology to rogue states who would use it to cause trouble and destabilization and such.

This is a disturbing notion. Therefore, I hereby propose that before the International Gravitics Technology Agency, with the power to bring military smackdowns on offending nations, is allowed to form, there MUST be regulations in place.

These regulations must stipulate when, and under what situations such smack downs are allowed. Any and all suck smack downs must be approved by a four -fifths majority vote of the U.N..

We can NOT allow unregulated use of technology such as this. It's far to dangerous to all of us.
