If you're going to make a law, at least make a punishment for not following the law.

Well, the whole point is not that "PM-ing these people is a crime", but rather "those people are not interested in Atlasia, and they are confirming, they don't want to be bothered".

Beside, how on earth are you going to prove PM-ing? Quotes? It's not impossible to forge a PM.

Exactly the reason this bill is a waste of time.

We're essentially passing a bill saying "We shouldn't bother people." It's common sense and not legislation worthy.

You totally miss the point of this law. We don't want to force people not to send PMs, what we want is that people know better who to PM and who not to PM.

Besides that, someone who PMs someone despite knowing he is in the no-PM list would be a total moron, as it's evident that he won't be able to convince him.

Senators have 24 hours to object to the amendment and request a recorded vote.

It's written clearly.

LOL Rowan. It looks like you only job in the Senate is to object to every Amendment just for the sake of complicating everything.

No, the first sentence will need to be rewritten to be more clear grammatically, but I see now what was meant.

It could read:

1. Any Atlasian who makes an explicit request in the Census Bureau thread to be placed on a "Do not PM list" will be registered in such a list by the Registrar General.

When I objected to the amendment for the Feline bill, it ended up being voted down. If I had not spoken up, we would have passed an amendment that did not have majority support.

It was going to be further amended by Duke's amendment either way. Your "objection" ultimately didn't do anything.

I called for a vote for two things, relax. It's not the end of the world.

I have a strange feeling Rowan is going to object everything he can just to piss us off.
