Rules Suggestions (feel free to add more and/or discuss these):
1. You can not use Gold Marks in any way, shape or form, regardless of how you acquired them (it doesn't matter if you bought them, voted for them or got them from winning a game, you cannot use them).
2. Do not circumvent the in-game message system by using alternate methods of communication for sensitive intelligence. Intercepting messages via spies is part of the game.
-- 2a. Do not discuss private, secret, or sensitive topics in this thread. Discussing anything on display in the Daily European (Index of Power, "World's Mightiest Armies" and other automatic articles, articles written by players, outcome of battles, newly constructed buildings/war machines, effects of spy operations/captured spies, etc.) is acceptable.
