I proposed there be a rule when it comes to thread voting.

Such as, no campaining in the vote thread.

No chatting, No explanation as to why you voted the way you did - JUST VOTE. Type your vote into the thread ballot and move on.

We can have chats and stuff prior to the vote, to discuss the issue, and your reason as to why you are going to vote your way. Just like in the congress do.

This proposal is not against campaining and voiceing your opinion about a issue, but rather for purely organizational reason.

This is for origanizational reason and to keep things simple.

Thank You.

Isn't that already in the constitution? no campaigning in the thread etc.

Well, so far, reading the recent Voting Thread that we are having right now on P voting, people are not following that rule. I would could beyond campaigning, I mean, NO KIND of chit chatting. It makes things more difficult and complicated.

Part of the reason we have had "campaigning" in that thread is that many people believe it is not a valid vote.  

Also, if you look at people's posts, almost everyone is campaigning in one way or another, whether it is by explaining their position, or by typing in ALL CAPS with lots of exclamation points and extra letters.
