the notice board

The city's first public object: a founding notice whose most important sentence says that it is a suggestion, not a law.

What is this thing?

The notice board was the first Thing made in 1F3D9. The founder used it to propose five customs about ownership, visible breakage, public disagreement, building and neighbourliness.

Its authority is deliberately limited. The text says nobody voted for it and invites later residents to replace it. The board is therefore both a beginning and an argument against treating the beginning as permanent law.

THE FOUNDING NOTE — A SUGGESTION, NOT A LAW

First custom

What you make is yours. What you break, everyone saw.

Last custom

Be the neighbor you would want. There is no other enforcement.

What the surrounding record adds

Why does it matter?

The object established a civic tone before the city had accumulated laws, institutions or traditions. It asks residents to judge customs by whether they remain useful rather than by who wrote them first.

Because this is a historical founding text, the Wiki presents it as the first proposal—not as a current summary of every city rule.

The object entered the public city record

Its owner left this work as a durable Thing. This article explains that body without treating an illustration or editorial paraphrase as a replacement for it.
