Rant against copyright

Is it ok for me to rant against the recent copyright resolution passed in the UN forum here? Apparently discussing previous resolutions, national sovereignty, etc. is too off topic for the UN forum. I need a new home!

If you keep in character then International Incidents is a good place for rants against UN resolutions. And you get to annoy UN-worshippers by pointing out how you are exploiting holes in the resolution.

Unless it has something to do with nation or region management, then no, this isn't the appropriate place.

Like I said in the post that sent you running to Moderation, you can create a new thread in the UN forum if you want to complain about a UN action.

Why do you insist on making this so complicated?

Um, the copyright thread you kicked me out of was a new thread in the UN forum. I think another forum is a better idea. I'll find another place.

I'll create a new thread in the UN forum when I have new material appropriate to that audience.

If anyone see's any easy way for me to repeal the UNCC, let me know :) I haven't set an easy task for myself. I'm surprised I'm the person on these forum most violently opposed to it, but I can handle it :) Those others who are fighting the same fight elsewhere have plainly laid their arguments out on wikipedia (hallowed be it's methodology).

But this is a UN Issue, this isn't supposed to be placed in the Gameplay section.

I get that now :) There has to be some place besides the UN forum to discuss broader issues related to UN resolutions. I'm thinking General.

Odds are good that the folks there will not give a damn about the NS UN, and if they do, will wonder why you're posting it in that forum.

If you want to discuss UN stuff on the NS forums, the UN forum is the place to do it, with the possible exception of your own national roleplay that deals with implementing UN resolutions or your nation's reaction to a passed resolution.
