Senators have 72 hours to object to this bill being brought to the floor ahead of all that other stuff.

Why should we lower requirements in first place?

A resolute and definitive no. The last thing we need is easing zombie recruitment.

^^^

My thoughts exactly.

Also: quality, people, quality. It's better to have less, but committeed, citizens, than being flooded.

I think we have plenty of longstanding members who are not at all committed to this game. The only way we can know if someone will be committed to the game is by giving them a chance.

I'm going to oppose this, sorry.

If you want to join, you can wait a little.

You really don't remember zombie invasion, when people were registering onsite just to get involved in Atlasia? Come on!

The zombie invasion occurred due to people previously in the game. All this would do is slightly delay the inevitable, Dave forbid that ever happens again.

Yeah, Shua. What's the relevance of few less days?

Geez, if you want to get involved, it's even better you have few additional days to rethink it and learn more, before registering.

I'll oppose the bill.

That's why I sponsored a bill really dealing with the issue, which was rejected at unanimity. Tongue

Still this bill could only make things worse.

No amendments, other points, objections?


I am fine with reducing the number of posts, but the day requirement is kind of low.

We can reach a compromise there.

I propose following amendment:

Reduction of Registration Requirements Amendment
Article V, Section 2, Clause 1 of the Atlasian Constitution is hereby amended to read:
1.  A person may become a registered voter if they have attained fifty posts and have been registered at the forum for at least ten days. In registration, the person must state their name and State of fantasy residence; In addition, they may optionally state a political affiliation.

How about that, Happy?

In that case, I'd be fine raising the number to 10.

I'd be fine with 2 weeks and 50 posts, but I agree it may allow people to manipulate the system. However, people will always find a way to manipulate the system regardless of its rules.

I proposed a compromise amendment because this is going to pass anyway so it's better to reduce potential damage here Tongue
