If it "appears to do something", and doesn't do that something, then it's lying, right? If the thing it appears to do would *otherwise* be unregulated (i.e. without the No Faking rule), lying about doing it makes it regulated (because lying is regulated by No Faking). An example: sending a

But, AFIAK, unregulated actions aren’t INEFFECTIVE, they’re just meaningless. No Faking only cares about things that are INEFFECTIVE. Therefore, No Faking doesn’t prohibit unregulated actions. Now that I think about it, No Faking says “believed…not to be effective” lowercase. Is that

No Faking prohibits lying, for a specific definition of "lying" that includes "not doing something that appears to do something" if you're doing that to mislead. Since lying is prohibited, the rules "limit" its performance, so it is regulated under R2125: An action is regulated if: (1)

This raises an interesting question: can you get around No Faking by doing something that appears to do something, but due to a technicality, turns out to be unregulated? Would No Faking even cover that in the first place? If not, should it? Gaelan > On Oct 23, 2018, at 10:41 AM, Kerim Aydin

Thanks for this. Not sure how I missed the parenthetical about ineffective actions—that makes a lot of sense. And the history is very interesting! On Tue, Oct 23, 2018 at 3:08 PM Kerim Aydin wrote: > > > So first, No Faking explicitly equates knowingly doing INEFFECTIVE actions > with lying: >

So first, No Faking explicitly equates knowingly doing INEFFECTIVE actions with lying: > (or, in the case of an action, not to be effective) which implies that "not to be effective" is qualitatively different enough from a "lie" so that it has to be specified as counting as Faking. But we do

Interesting. R2124 governs "objections to dependent actions". Nothing in the rules says anything about objections to non-dependent actions. I have no idea if such things are INEFFECTIVE acts, or simply statements of opinion. If taken as Acts, such objections are not R2125 restricted (don't
