I would like to stand for delegate as depending on how much information was given to Dali there are now 3-4 people eligible to stand for a position in these elections.
This is based upon a strict interpretation of the constitution regarding the minimum one post every 30 days to maintain RA...
Yep, that's how I got back in after flem seems to have missed my reapplication. :P
Which means that no matter what outcome occurs from the trial myself, Daimiaena, and Cakatoa have been accepted into the RA by default. Roman will be accepted by default tomorow. Followed by sedge on the 8th, and...
The minimum duties of a government are to safeguard the community of the region, provide something for people to do both on and off the site, and then encourage them to do it. How to safeguard their community is left to those who make it up.
Deciding on what shape the government should take is a tricky matter because everyone has their own opinion regarding every point that they feel is right.
Is that the best pattern for the future? - TNP holds tightly onto democracy at its core and this is probably something that will never...
As things stand we have a number of influential nations in the region who can tart during a rogue delegate and be pests that must be constantly watched. However this may not always be the case.
If we go the route of giving the delegate lots of power in a new system I feel this will cut back on...
There is a simple 2 pronged approach to this matter. The first action we need to take is to go out into the wide world of the game, anywhere, and get involved. Make ourselves a name in whatever we choose to do so that those attracted to that playstyle will come here. Then, once we have found our...
I feel there should be no restrictions on the delegate's powers excepting holding them accountable for changes in the position. Some people believe doing this leads to a dictatorship but those come around to seize control of power.
The forum government would still be able to run around and do...
Each delegate change would not always come with a complete change of government. The region may first choose a delegate who wishes to have a system like what we have now, then while in office decides to create an invader military. Seeing as this does not sit well with the region they could...
Perhaps the best thing to do know is the idea I proposed over on HEM's forums.
We establish a single small document as the only permanent legal document. This document would cement the delegate as the ultimate authority in the region who is able to decide how to run the region. It would also...
I am simply proposing this idea now so we can start the process.
Gov: Saying there is nothing wrong with this Constitution is like saying we should put Blue Wolf in charge of the FRA.
Grosse: I plan on introducing my idea, which has already been somewhat proposed, shortly and I have already...
We all know it is true, some of us are just unwilling to accept it. This constitution's time is upon us, it is no longer able to function in what TNP has become. This is why I urge this amendment to the constitution:
The first thing to do is to decide when we want to get rid of the...
If we are able to streamline the judiciary and keep them on a timetable then I have no qualms with keeping them.
And yes the executive branch does need to be given a nudge. I think part of that can be giving the delegate a bit more to do in terms of fighting spam and to create a military force...
Here are some basic ideas of what I would be interested in seeing. They are not all complete ideas (as you will see) but some are starting points for trimming things down. Be aware this post will be long as I quote the whole Constitution. It is just a start and mainly rough ideas that I will be...
As things stand the currently constitution can be made workable with simple tweaks and fat trimming. Loosen the confines on the delegate seat a little and simplify the RA (a monthly roll call like TWP has would easily allow the speaker to keep track of members). Remove the justices and allow the...
You say our system as if you've already chosen what will happen and are merely waiting to get enough people to look at it before you stamp it into place.
You ask for ideas and possibilities while then talking as if your mind is made up
As I goofed and haven't posted for over 30 days I would like to reapply for membership to the RA.

I would like to run for the position of Justice.
I was accepted into the RA on May 21st at 5pm GMT so I will have the minimum 30 days required on the 20th at 5pm GMT, before the period for nominations end.
Gracius Maximus is no mere someone. He is the tyrant of all tyrants. The king of all kings. We would have no choice but to band together, come up with a solution, and implement it in the most brilliant of manners to remove him.
Meanwhile he would be cleansing the dead flesh off the open wound...
The "making of funny titles and snazzy remarks" seems to be more than enough for the region. You offer nothing to replace the current structure with, just vague ideas the system has failed and needs rebuilt.
If you feel the government has failed then propose ideas to fix it not try to turn the...
Gracius Maximus for delegate!
After all he meets all the qualifications you set
Innovative: Mass ejections before it was the cool thing to do
Active: He dedicated time enough to eject 3200 people in a single sitting
Willing to speak out: obvious fact is obvious
Good communicator: He could take...
To play the devil's advocate for a second here:
The part in question as quoted by Gracius Maximus states that no one is to be denied equal and fair treatment under the law. To hand out special dispensations would go against this because quite simply, you are giving special treatment to specific...
