Darth Groovy Posted December 12, 2002 Share Posted December 12, 2002 We are in the process of drafting a constitution for the Academy. As of now only a few rules are in place by word of mouth, as we are now expanding into the LF Network it is necessary to post a set of rules for all members to abide by. Once we post the actual code, it shall be written in stone. The code pertains to the way all members of LFJA carry themselves on the forums and in online game servers. Laws posted will present all the rules by which all members need to abide by as well as the actions taken against members who violate the code. obi-wan 13, Darklighter and myself have agreed to post this stuck message to allow members to come up with rules to add to the code. All posts in this thread will be reviewed by members of the LFJA Council(whose members are to be determined by obi-wan13) and then a formal draft of the code will be posted and stuck here as well.

obi Posted December 13, 2002 Share Posted December 13, 2002 COUNCIL I have selected the following personel of the LFJA to head up the LFJA council. Here they are in no particular order: Darklighter Reb Starblazer Darth Groovy Dath Maximus kstar_2 Leemu Taos Padanime Jedi220. If you did not make it to the council, do not fret. The council's duties are to Provide advice, patrol the forums for trolls, or any other LucasForums member in violation of the LucasForums rules, and to bring attention to the moderators anything that may be harmful to the forums. Of course, the entirety of LFJA has this goal; but these few members have shown themselves eximplary and commendable in the past. Good job fellows.

Darth Groovy Posted December 13, 2002 Author Share Posted December 13, 2002 Well that's that then. I say the council members decide on disiplenary actions and mandate laws. If we hold trials, the members will answer to all of the above members as a whole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Groovy Posted December 13, 2002 Author Share Posted December 13, 2002 I say we outlaw l337 speak. It's fine if ya want to use it in a chatroom, but using it on game servers and in your posts should be strictly prohibited. All LFJA members neither seen and heard from for 60 days are considered "Missing in Action". Padawans who disobey their masters are first warned with three verbal warnings(via chat or voice chat) and three written(email, etc). If the problem persists past that, the masters must contact a council member and we will have a hearing to decide what to do with the padawan. Gloating of any kind should be strictly prohibted. If you kick someone's ass in a game or anything like that, you don't walk around and gloat, but rather give a silent nod and leave. It is more dignified and cooler on a zen level anyway, trust me.

Guest Jed Posted December 15, 2002 Share Posted December 15, 2002 *makes sure he gets on within 60 days* Sorry about my little leave of absence guys. I'm glad I made it on the Council. *looks around* Anyways.... I second the motion of l33t speak. It's extremely annoying most of the time. I say that after 60 days from being M.I.A., we can say that the person is out. If they return, they must under go a 60-day training period by a Council Member or LFJA Master.

obi Posted December 15, 2002 Share Posted December 15, 2002 *lays back and let's his "congress" do all the work* Heh, I could be the president About the Padawan being insubordinate, It is against our rules that a padawan go against his master. However, If the Master is wrong, that is a different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kstar__2 Posted December 15, 2002 Share Posted December 15, 2002 hey, i made it to the council! (btw, it is spelled with two underscores;) ) i suggest that once in the two weeks, a master tells the council what's going on with his padawan. can i redifine the no l33t speak rule: l33t speak isn't allowed if you use it to offend, like "i roXXor j00" but if it is just for fun, like "|)0|\|'][' $']['3P 0|\| |^|'/ $]-[03$" (don't step on my shoes) it's alright ot use it.

Of course, it's just for fun, but we all speak English good enough, so Let's use that language, and not some ignorant, ficticious language.

Tyrion Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 Also,this is a democracy. So you can say if you like the current council,and any ideas can be directed towards the council members. (You can also send it to me,and I'll foward it to them if you like). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Groovy Posted December 18, 2002 Author Share Posted December 18, 2002 Originally posted by Tyrion (You can also send it to me,and I'll foward it to them if you like).

Darth Groovy Posted December 19, 2002 Author Share Posted December 19, 2002 I plan to have the first draft emailed to the council members by this weekend. I'm a little dissapointed. I had hoped to get more feedback, but I guess you all trust us though. So be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darklighter Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 I think one of the other problems about why we have not had feedback is that we have not advertised this place enough. I am sure that there are a number of members on the original LFJA list who have not even posted over here yet. I will make an effort to get in contact with those who have not visited this forum, and to see if they are still committed to this establishment.
