"For those of you new Space Nations, life can be tough. If you're just emerging now all the good territory is taken, and there are lots of big people out there who can push you around. For the old guys there are lots of competitions, territory claimed by two nations, endless wars, and trade stifling. Well, we are here to propose an end to this. A Galactic Alliance, a governmental body that will help smooth out the inter-stellar pathways, and help the new guys along. Unlike the U.N. on Earth, the Galactic Alliance will not rely on the powers of it's member nations to get things done. It will have it's own army, and it will have its own trade fleets, repair depots, and everything else. it is not here to rule you, but to help you. All nations are welcome, and we have a loose constitution to help smooth out the differences between member nations. If you have read, and accept the constitution, you're in."
-Famous speech from Klonor at the beginning of the Old Galactic Alliance

Galactic Alliance Constitution

Article 1:
Each member must adhere to Alliance laws and mandates.

Article 2:
Each member maintains control over their territory, as long as it does not conflict with Article 1.

Article 3:
Any technological developments or creations from before joining the Alliance is strict property of its creator, shared only at his/her wishes.

Article 4:
Any technological developments or creations from after joining the Alliance are up for trade with all.

Article 5:
All members must give all other members free passage and trade to their systems.

Article 6:
If a member is in trouble which he/she is not responsible for, all other members are required to pledge any support they can.

Article 7:
The Alliance may only embark on a course of action after it has been approved by 2/3 of all active members (those who have logged in within the last week). It takes 15 members to veto.

Article 8:
No one in the Alliance may cause harm to another member, unless there is just cause, upon which they will be expelled from the Alliance.

Article 9:
Any member may propose a change to the Articles, and may propose a new law at any time. These shall come into effect immediately upon the approval by 2/3 of currently active member nations at the time of approval. A veto can be mounted by 15 GA members.

Article 10:
All GA nations are equal. However, Thunderstraat, as the refounder, will be a Chief Counselor, as will nations that have proved their worth to me. Chief Counselors have priority in the case of an attack and all members are obligated to listen to them.

Article 11:
Nations wishing to join the GA should post in this topic asking to join. Once any GA member recognizes this, they are an official member and eligible to post with the "GA Member" picture in their signatures.

Article 12:
Any nations that have participated in flaming, spamming, or other similar offenses will be eligible for rejection OR in extreme cases ANNIHILATION if at least two Senior Counselors agree to it.

Chief Counselors:
Thunderstraat

GA Member Nations:
WinTrees
Comdidia
Boom-Ville

GA Allies:

What are the benifits? :D

Article 6:
If a member is in trouble which he/she is not responsible for, all other members are required to pledge any support they can.

This is just a knockoff of the SFNA

GA again? not cool.

What's the SFNA? THIS is a knockoff of Klonor's GA.

Article 12 (Banning Amendment) added.

Wintrees is interested in joining. However if it results in "mega death" of my space fleet, we will withdraw.

Not to sound rude or anything, but this failed last time, and will fail again. Save your reputation, your sanity, your time and your reputation, don't bother with something that just can't and won't work. But, thats just my .02 cents

oh oh i'll join.


*mutters in the background* can't wait to see it die again with me in it mwhahahaha. *gunshot and man falls down dead.* yeah my point is i'd be happy to join once i finish completely rebuilding my space fleet.

Thanks alot dpd for blowing it apart for no reason...........And if this results in everyone wanting to kill me...i'll be outa here so fast it will (i need some thing here but to lazy to think it up.)

Intresting. Unfourtnately, our space "fleet" is quite primitive, consisting of 2 model rockets. Once we have researched FTL drives (around 300 million pop) we may join.

Didn't the last GA fail because non-members flamed the whole organization for the actions of a new minority?

Yep your correct that the main reason why it failed. Because of several nations actions everyone started that.

THIS GA won't have that problem. I'll set up a thread or something for banned members for anyone to check.

The last GA died because of Klonor's incompetence.

I curse the new GA.

Why can't you people just let it DIE?!

I curse the new GA. And i curse you so now were even.

The last GA died because of Klonor's incompetence.

My incompetence? First off, where was I incompetent? Second of all, even if I was, which I wasn't, why would that have effected it?

I get the strangest feeling that this GA is beginning out a whole lot like the way the last one died out. Anyone want to take a wager as to how long this un will last?

A couple(2-7) days with everyone arguing followed be an importent member leaving and everyone following them.

I guessed how long and how.

Hey, this is only less-than-active because you WANT it to be that way. There was nothing wrong with the old GA, and even less wrong with this...
Wait! What if I include a clause that lets older members kick the crap out of godmodding, spamming, or generally annoying younger members?

Thunder if you did that oooooh the fun most the people would have if those annoying godmod ones snuck in. In fact I LOVE THAT IDEA.

Commie Jackson votes yes on it.
Stats for votes with C.J. no-1009 yes-1

Hey i never left the old GA that would probly mean something like it didnt die then as it had member and stuff?

Commie didnt leave either so technically the GA isnt gone cause A.P.C. is technically a member of it because Commie Jackson wouldnt believe it fell apart. Stupid stupid warmongering voter.

The Empire of Boom-ville respectfully asks if it may be allowed to join in this Galactic Alliance.

Thunderstraat votes yes. That's two out of three yes. OK, it's in. NOW Boom-Ville can join. And the member list has been wiped; it needed to happen anyway.
