All Players Have the Right To....
Silas Soule
Live Sharp Look Smart
ALL PLAYERS HAVE THE RIGHT TO...
Be treated as human beings.
A full game life.
Independence.
Knowledge.
Happiness.
ALL PLAYERS HAVE THE RIGHT TO...
Dispose freely of his or her game time.
Move around the e-World as he or she thinks fit.
The freely available necessites of e-life.
(In other words, it is up to the volunteer collectivity to grant each of its members the material means which will release them from the worrying difficulty of having to satisfy these on a daily basis, and give them the freedom to refine these needs according to their desires.)
Exercise control over experimentation so as to ensure that it serves the interest of players and not those of the market.
Take delight in themselves, in others and in the e-world.
ALL PLAYERS HAVE THE RIGHT TO...
Build their own destiny.
Create and to self-create.
Step in and intervene when player progress is threatened.
Call upon the solidarity of e-society to put an end to maneuverings of those endowed with any kind of authority.
Feel the freedom of love.
Base the diversity of his or her desires on the plurality of life.
ALL PLAYERS HAVE THE RIGHT TO...
A choice between activity and rest, and the right to be idle.
Striving and persistence.
His or her personal sense of beauty.
Stray, to get lost and to find themselves.
The poetry of existence.
ALL PLAYERS HAVE THE RIGHT TO...
Play on and make light of the actions and the values of the Old World.

I met a little gypsy in a fortune-telling place
She read my mind, and then she slapped my face.
you didn't pay her... eh ?
This may be the single best article I have ever read in this game.
I would say best ever anywhere, but I once read a great "How to" on making your own snow shoes years ago and that article still resonates with me today.
Cannot beat a great pair on snow shoes that is for sure. Link?

If only THIS were part of the Terms of Service.
Was thinking about you yesterday, quite odd, I don't think about people in this game that much anymore...
You told me you think of me when you are alone and with lube.
Don't be a sicko, dude. It wasn't like that.
Dreams shattered.
Voted.
But then again, who exactly gives you these rights?
Hmmm... I hereby grant these rights to all players!
Thanks
Rights are a cute idea...and fictional 😉
George Carlin - You have no rights

But George Carlin does not play this game.
I thought of the same speech.
Praise George!
Reads like a PTOers charter to me *shrug*
I can see why you say that, but the PTOers I have been exposed to, while they may say many of these things, actually feel no need to grant the same rights to anybody else. I think the key is the very first right name - "All players have the right to be treated as a human being." The PTOers I know treat everybody else like dirt.
However, the points above about letting anyone move anywhere is how we get PTOs - unfortunately there are scumbags in this game as well as the good people 🙁
Indeed, that is why I could see your point. Once again, the key here is "all players". PTOers want these rights only for themselves, not for the citizens of the country or party they are trying to take over.
I think I see what you are getting at, but when taken as a whole I think these rights (freedoms really) work. For example, PTOers want to move around freely, but they also want to deny a "full game life" and "happiness" to others.
So I guess my point is "Yes, it would be nice if everyone was nice, but they aren't, hence all the safeguards that prevent a lot of freedoms"

wtf?
Sorry, but you see, whenever someone writes the letters 'PTO' referring to a make believe election in eRepublik, it makes me cringe. Its like losing a little league baseball team and blaming the other team wanting to win. It is stupidity and it is the byproduct of ignorance. Besides, I never said it had to shoot itself anywhere vital. A rubberband to the eye is sufficient.

EAT MORE CHICKEN!
no rules = caos
Can;t help it., even while dating myself. You could mean chaos, or you could mean KAOS, if you are a fan of 1960s TV.
For me , theses nice words mean nothing with this game. Freedom, yes, but with rules.
I went down to the depot and I looked up on the board
You know It said "It's good times here, but better on down the road"
Well I'll eat my breakfast here and eat my dinner in New Orleans
