brief statement
It appears to me to explain something:
The leader of Bel'la Olplyn is Kefkin.
It has absolute control of its kingdom. He has the right, to rename his kingdom as every other leader.
Only if he leave his throne, somebody else can become king.
Except if staff administrator Björn or his bosses kicking a leader for a good reason.

Why? It doesn't literally belong to him. It's a facet of GK's gameplay, he just plays the role of the figurehead. He shouldn't be given complete and unregulated control over the kingdom - otherwise he is granted power that he doesn't need and will quite likely abuse.

Who does the kingdom belong to if it doesn't belong to Kefkin?

Obviously everything on 2K2 belongs to the staff.

And Bjorn left it to the RP Team to make the decision on the matter.

Ultimately it belongs to GraalOnline, but only indirectly. Why does it need an owner?

Because it's a kingdom, It needs a leader to stay active.

You didn't catch what he was trying to say.

It's kind of like how a park can have a head caretaker... but is there an owner for a public park? That Caretaker can be fired or relieved of his job if his bosses find him to be ill-suited for that job. It should be no different in Graal. Moreso when you have a kingdom leader.

And then that brings another point up. Why should Kefkin be the owner? Technically doesn't it belong to the RP Team now that the team was created?

True, kingdoms need a leader, the same way that a company needs someone in charge of it to keep it running. However, the moment you give someone free reign to do whatever they want in a position of power, you will inevitably cause an abuse of that power. Just look at the CEOs that have gone to prison for treating their companies like their own personal bankroll.

That's why we are here, we're here to monitor the kingdoms as well as monitor the roleplaying involved.

And you see nothing wrong with the roleplaying involved in the situation where a race that doesn't exist by Graal's standards, comes in and utterly defeats the long-standing meant-for-stability Zormite Republic in one fell swoop?

And the roleplaying background on how a kingdom is returning to the archipelago to reclaim it's colony as the Zormites evolved into the biggest nation in the world with the conquests of Dustari, Samurai, Bomy Gang, and their uneffected status when the meteorite crashed as stated by Graal Bomy Moon's 2nd Kingdom Admin Vermain.

No. Their major task consists of making sure the players understand how to RP, and to enforce the Graal Kingdoms rules.
The team is there to encourage roleplaying among the kingdoms (in the kingdom together with the kingdom leader).
I created the team to assist the leaders and release me and Björn.
