    Attention all major crews, the New Roman Republic is hosting the first ever serverwide Geneva Convention*. In this convention, we will be discussing what we feel are acceptable forms of warfare, and what is acceptable to cause it, and will be signing an agreement between all of us legitamizing this agreement. We ask that all major nations who want to attend send their leader, or a representative of their nation, to the convention, under the following terms:

    • You will not bring weapons or armor
    • You will submit to a strip search** to ensure no weapons are brought to this meeting
    • You will go in with an open mind

    Any media members, including newspaper editors or media staff who wish to attend will have to go through a strip search as well, and will not be signing the document unless they are also a representative of a crew, the basic format the discussion will begin with is a set of rules proposed by InventorJohn:
    <p style=”border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14px; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 22.4px; background: #fbfbfb;”>1. No attacking of people or buildings that aren’t doing anything to support the war cause.</p>
    <p style=”border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14px; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 22.4px; background: #fbfbfb;”>2. No unnecessary damage shall be done to cities or landscapes.</p>
    <p style=”border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14px; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 22.4px; background: #fbfbfb;”>3. Unconditional surrender is only accepted when the crew or country is so badly damaged that it can no longer fight.</p>
    <p style=”border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14px; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 22.4px; background: #fbfbfb;”>4. When a country surrenders it must accept the requirements that victor sets up.</p>
    <p style=”border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14px; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 22.4px; background: #fbfbfb;”>5. The victors requirements must make sense and be fair.</p>
    <p style=”border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14px; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 22.4px; background: #fbfbfb;”>[REDACTED].</p>
    <p style=”border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14px; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 22.4px; background: #fbfbfb;”>7. War must be declared for a justifiable cause.</p>
    <p style=”border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14px; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 22.4px; background: #fbfbfb;”>8. Just cause is not a justifiable cause</p>
    <p style=”border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14px; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 22.4px; background: #fbfbfb;”>9. Supporting the war effort is in anyway supplying the country with military supplies or supplies that will be used for military structures. If you are just supplying supplies to rebuild or repair non-aggressive structures or structures that were already previously built to protect cities it will not be counted as supporting the war effort.</p>
    <p style=”border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14px; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 22.4px; background: #fbfbfb;”>10. Unless if absolutely necessary war may not be used to dissolve a crew.</p>
    <p style=”border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14px; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 22.4px; background: #fbfbfb;”>11. Laws of war only apply to crew or countries who have accepted them.</p>
    <p style=”border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14px; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 22.4px; background: #fbfbfb;”>12. If a crew or country that has accepted the terms of these laws disobeys them then they will be charged for war crimes.</p>
    <p style=”border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14px; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 22.4px; background: #fbfbfb;”>13. A peace agreement is not surrendering.</p>
    <p style=”border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14px; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 22.4px; background: #fbfbfb;”>14.  Charges for war crimes will be decided in War Court.</p>

    If you are so worried about the chance of attack, why not host the event in a non – pvp location?

    I like the idea of this, though.

    Thats a good point. Usually, I enjoy attending things such as this but as I hold no government position in my crew I have no authority to sign anything. Would it be possible to be an audience member or some other impartial role? Or perhaps, as BE is attending with BGraph, I could be attending as a member of BE?
