Seems like it would boost incentive for activity.

I'm not entirely sure...I just don't like the idea of people being kicked out of office too easily. I mean, sometimes real life gets in the way whether we like it or not. And we can't leave enough warning or prepare others. Activity is a noble thing, but I feel as though kicking people out of office way is too blunt an instrument.

For the record, I was increasingly ill some time ago and was unable to post on Atlas for 3-4 days as y'all know. What if I lost office under these rules? Should people be removed from their positions because unavoidable real life situations? I worry that we'd go too far and perfectly active people would lose office b/c the rules were too stringent.

Fair point imo.

Yeah, I don't know if I can support this. It seems a bit...rough.

I've been away since the 19th camping with no access to Atlas, so I'm strongly against this.

I believe the current rule should be retained. I find this bill too harsh and am opposed.

Not even considering an amendment to make it more palatable?

Calling a final vote. Delegates have 48 hours to vote.

Nay. Concerns raised by Classic & others are legitimate.
