I'm on board with the spirit of this law, but do we plan on attaching some sort of penalty if it is violated? It would seem like nothing more than a mere statement if we did not. I'll wait for the sponsor to weigh in on the bill before proposing anything, however.
This is a very good idea; what are the specific penalties you have in mind?
As for the intent of this bill, it's simple. To paraphrase Legislator Dereich's words when he introduced the original version of this bill to the IDS Legislature, this would prevent incidents like the nonsense we saw earlier this month with "rebellions". We had people claiming to represent entire states or areas of our region, when in reality all that was going on was some people LARPing.
