Some problems:
1. The DoJ does not have the ability to enforce a monetary fine on players
2. This would require trial and conviction (not an easy process as has been demonstrated)
3. This is NPC tier punishment for a player violation.
4. The only real penalties for players are office and voting ban in this game.
5. This seems to only affect Atlas PMs.
Exactly.
If you don't want a PM being sent to you, than don't register.
Also NPC tier violations, i'm gladly able to pay hundreds of inexisting 1000 dollar fines.
