Guest Tie Guy Posted August 7, 2001 Share Posted August 7, 2001 It always has to come back to that, doesn't it Kvan? Anyway, i've already gotten some people from RS.net here, and i don't go anywhere else, so i can't really recruit. Sorry, i would if i could. Oh, and Rommel, you'll have to ask Leo, but i think that this will be the people's senate, a democracy. The Mods already have enough power, they don't need any more. Of course, they could probably post in it if they wantec too, but they won't get a "seat"......i don't think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sherack Nhar Posted August 7, 2001 Share Posted August 7, 2001 Originally posted by Darth_Rommel A quick question: will all the mods automatically get a seat? No, because this Senate will not have anything to do will moderating. In fact, I hope that the mod WILL be able to get a seat, as I'd like to be part of it myself (as a GB player, not a mod)...

Hey I just wanted to see if my input meant anything to anyone, thats all Hey Rommel I don't think that the mods should/would have a seat, this is all about US! If they get involved too much why even have a Senate then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paragon_Leon Posted August 7, 2001 Author Share Posted August 7, 2001 In all honesty, i think there SHOULD be a mod to keep an eye on how many posts one Senator does during a meeting, if things go o.k. and there's no spamming / calling names / whatever.. It IS a people's forum, it's just that the ones at the top would have to be able to control it with authority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just meant that mods won't get an "automatic" seat in the senate. If you want to join i have no problem with that, and i don't think Leo will either, as he's a mod too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paragon_Leon Posted August 7, 2001 Author Share Posted August 7, 2001 Exactly. that's the whole idea. The Chancellor would function as a mod for the Senate-meetings. The Senators would do the actual talking. Remember the Senate meeting in Ep 1 ? All Valorum did was give people the opportunity to speak and ask them if they agreed on something. Oh, and he officially announced any motions to make it official. I'm thinking of doing that, so you can do most of the talking.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith 5 Posted August 7, 2001 Share Posted August 7, 2001 Kvan I was just thinking the samething!!! Why not make the head person a mod that can only mod that fourm. Also the world has been spered at XWA.net by Aristotle And just to make sure i have this clear. The Senate will be the gaming rule body of this fourm.

Guest Tie Guy Posted August 7, 2001 Share Posted August 7, 2001 That's pretty much it. And Leon, the Supreme Chancellor would do alot of talking too, otherwise having one or being one is useless. Everyone has to have a say in the senate, isn't that what it's about. The Chancellor could just keep the peace also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leon, I think that Sherack would be better for the position, he is nice! Or Chris, he's nice too, but he probably has to much to do Really though, *I* would have the senators elect a Chan. be it JUST from the mods or not.. ....oh your nice too Leon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paragon_Leon Posted August 7, 2001 Author Share Posted August 7, 2001 Of course he'd talk too... it's just that his main goal would be to keep the Senate in one piece, have meetings go orderly and have AUTHORITY by being able to correct or even ban wrong-doers. oh Kvan, glad i'm nice.. :D i'm seriously considering that chancellor-ship... would you think it's a good idea to make it a position that serves for a certain term ? Like, say, half a year ? Then there could be elections for a new Chancellor.... a strong chanchellor... one who won't let.. o. sorry. got carried away there.

darthfergie Posted August 7, 2001 Share Posted August 7, 2001 People elect 5 senators. The 5 senators elect 1 Chancellor who then becomes Mod over that forum. So how do we make ourselves candidates.(#5 poster speaking:D ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah thats a good idea, maybe you serve the first term just because , and the next Chan. has to be voted on. Good idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paragon_Leon Posted August 7, 2001 Author Share Posted August 7, 2001 erm... actually, it's still my proposal.. let's not get carried away too quickly, ok ?? I reckon that with a set Chancellor (who basically moderates and CAN be voted out after his first term) and nominated-and-voted-upon Senators, 5 at first, there's the best basis to get going. oh, and i was talking to fergie here, not Kvan (but thanks, Kvan) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sherack Nhar Posted August 7, 2001 Share Posted August 7, 2001 Originally posted by Kvan Leon, I think that Sherack would be better for the position, he is nice! That's so nice Kvan, thanks! Let's not decide on a chancellor right now. I thought we agreed that we'd let the senators decide on their leader?? Leon, in addition to the "time-limit", we'd let the senators the possibility to pass a vote of no-confidence if they're unhappy with the Chancellor's behavior, just like Amidala did in TPM!

Paragon_Leon Posted August 7, 2001 Author Share Posted August 7, 2001 but i won't go berserk so it'll be a blatant power-grab by one of you, there for all to see.. :D :D :D the vote of no confidence is intrigueing to say the least.

Mitth'raw'nuruodo Posted August 13, 2001 Share Posted August 13, 2001 hey, id love to be a senator! What about this idea: How about each senator is in charge of a type of tactics or something, like one senator could be in charge of attack tactics and another defense, of senators could be for different races. Perhaps senators could have underlings that would report in on new ideas. Well what do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paragon_Leon Posted August 13, 2001 Author Share Posted August 13, 2001 Nice suggestion. The 'underlings'-concept was already part of the first draft.. I'm relieved that i didn't post it already and started polling on it.. that would have cost me a LOT of work.. As far as tactics go; i'm pretty sure most people will be able to give their input on tactics.. maybe it's a good idea to post profiles on certain Senators ? Stating how they're experts in certain fields ? That way, anybody can contribute on tactics, but a few will be publicly known as experts on it.
