Admirable objectives, but I still don't see how any of the proposals being offered accomplishes them. People will come and go all the time (case in point:me). As I recall from my active days here when I was the SoFA, the most fun and highly participated in event of this game is the presidential elections. And now, you have proposals that would completely eliminate presidential elections! This will have the opposite effect you are trying to achieve.
But hey, I know I'm jumping in on something that's been going on for a while. Carry on with your convention.
I believe that every proposal has a nationally elected President, as well as other elected offices similar to the Senate. The point is to maintain the election structure while improving the government aspect. There are no concrete ideas formed yet, so everything is open for input and debate. I would recommend you participate and help out in the Convention. We can always use extra voices. Nor do I have a problem with the normal ebb and flow of the membership. But we have 60 people voting in elections and far fewer total seats in public office. Those elections should be competitive. People need to want to participate.
To add to this post, people have suggested that there is a lack of fun, for need of a better word, in the government that causes most people to want to leave after a certain time. As Brandon H said back in December, people who assume office very quickly often cease to be active within a year of joining Atlasia. I could look for the quote if someone wants.
