Not that I don't think this effort is in good faith, but it opens a whole new door of restricting callsign use across the network and the requirements for doing so. I personally don't think it is a door that VATSIM wants or should open.

As the CEO of the only NWA VA Partner on VATSIM I can limit the use of that callsign within my VA, but VATSIM has already set precedence that no callsigns will be restricted on the network save for aircraft that were part of major catastrophes, such as Pan-Am 103, or the aircraft that were destroyed on 9/11/01.
