All the actions performed in a promise are currently considered to be act-on-behalf actions, so that general prohibition is already existing (Rule 2618/4 extract): > By doing so, e acts on the creator of the > promise's behalf, causing the creator to act as if e published the > promise's text, and destroys the promise. That said, you don't need to be saddened yet because "inactivation" isn't a current prohibition, just a proposed one. I can see very good reasons for making activation prohibited (to prevent uncontrolled 'zombie' farming), but inactivtation seems harder though not impossible to abuse? As you say we don't really have any "be the only X" win conditions right now, but if we do add them that seems like good gameplay to keep. -G.
