What would destroy Agora is, I think, inappropriate judicial arguments that weren't contested. The judgement itself normally doesn't actually matter. Incidentally, I encourage you to think of an ingenious way to actually punish comex for eir scams. Actually, I have a better proto: remove criminal and equity CFJs altogether, and move inquiry cases to a-d. The judicial system is too important to put inside a nomic where it can be scammed, and influence the game. And if criminal cases didn't exist, it would give people an incentive to actually obey the rules. When there are no criminal cases, not obeying the rules is cheating. When there are, not obeying the rules is suddenly doing something is OK if you're willing to accept the punishment for it, it seems. -- ais523
