I oppose this bill as currently written.

how would you write it?

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.
