Lots of fleshed out arguments here from everyone. I appreciate the thought you guys are putting into this!

I've been talking to quite a few people about this whole situation and agree with Aphel in the fact that the OOC scene has become pretty poisonous and underhanded with some people unwilling to admit faults in their own characters while OOC trying to undermine other people. I do think though that some instances can be taken IC as characters deliberately ignoring corrupt behavior to further their own goals - especially when allies are needed against their enemies.

I don't think there is a clean-cut answer to all of the issues and opinions of how legal RP should be handled. No matter how one stacks things, there is always opportunity for OOC bias to overtake good RP spirit in positions where "power" is centered, be it guild leaders or unguilded Magistrates.

I think the safest route is what Selzen suggested - making a list of Magistrates, Barristers, etc. that people can contact if they wish to go through the court process. The court I envisioned was a resource that people could utilize -if- they wanted to expand their RP, not a tool for people to impose their own views on other RPers.
