I am personally with Wes on this in that we need a clean sweep of personhood (raise the personhood definition security to 3 in rule 2150, state right out "only first-class persons can be players", then delete all reference to classes of players). I think, quite frankly, that all this personhood crap has been one of the drags on the game as it is overly complex to no purpose, and getting rid of it, rather than re-complicating it, would be better for activity. -G.
