There's plenty of people who remember and abide by the treaty. And in the end that's what the treaty is there for, when some lolwut brings an OC cap to liberty they get rekt. Treaty could probably do with some better publication, but newbs & indies not being aware of developed RP lore is hardly new. I've found you can explain to them easily enough - and if they decide they don't care, that's what nova's are for.
But it's not that easy, if some players think Malta doesn't have to succumb to the treaty due to its political position and bring Caps for example into liberty they have a legitimate inRP reason and are far from just being lolwuts or newbies nor do they deserve being called like that. This also shows that this so called "developed RP lore" is either not the same for everybody or not thought through well enough.
