GS SUMMIT DELEGATES:
Please note that the RLA, through Delegate Blackbird, has tendered the following Counter-Proposal to the tentative accord drafted during the GS Summit. Please give due consideration to the terms included, and have your home regions/alliances consider the terms being offered. Please state the position of your alliance/region publically following consideration. Thank You.
___________________________________________
Issue 1: Espionage As a Function of Gameplay: Espionage will be allowed to continue in its current form. The vast majority of delegates agreed to a ban on all non-military espionage and any form of espionage designed to secure regional leadership or impact the internal politics of the target region. This matter has been tabled pending further review by TITO and the ADN.
Issue 2: Self-Liberation of Acquired Regions:
a. Target regions are to be defined, jointly, by invaders/crasher/raiders and defenders. They are to create a list not exceeding 50 regions, and said list shall be submitted to the defenders, and declared open for target.
b. Target regions which are acquired may secure their liberation by demonstrating ongoing activity of at least 20% of their native UN-Delegate nations during the period of the occupation. Once a region is acquired, the raider delegate must immediately post a statement regarding the last known period of activity of all native UN nations on the Regional Message Board for public viewing. No other posts by raider forces are allowed on the RMB until the first native or defender organization acknowledges review of the information. This acknowledgement must occur immediately following the acquisition by any defender nation online at the time of the acquisition and following the activity post by the raider delegate.
c. Acquired regions which cannot show the required activity levels may be colonized by raider organizations without prospective interference by defender organizations. Acquired regions meeting the activity requirement will be released by the raider delegate within 48 hours of verification of such native activity by the observing defender organization, and will be removed from the Global Target List.
Issue 3: Spamming and Sweeping During Gameplay:
Defender and raider organizations will refrain from spamming the RMB's of home and colony regions during missions. This includes use of nations to clear the regional activity registers of home and colony regions. Raider and defender organizations will refrain from posting sensitive information on home and colony RMB's during missions which may be used to harass, annoy, invade or otherwise molest the home or colony regions.
Issues 4 & 5: NS-Mod Reports and Review of Alleged Violations of the GS Accord: Defender and raider organizations agree to address alleged violations of NS rules and this Accord occuring during missions in a neutral forum prior to the submission of any reports or complaints to NS Hosts. This issue was approved by the majority of participating delegates, but is awaiting further review by the ADN and TITO."
