Nah, that would be too stark a change and goes against historical precedent in TSP.
On that note — motion.

I'd like to raise the following;

Looking at the way the forums are currently organised, with political parties presented above and before the actual government itself, this seems to be a rather blatant case of undue prominence - and inappropriate. It also follows a pattern of Glen's, previously mentioned by others, of making alterations and "forgetting" to point them out to anyone. This legislation was meant to be about regulating political parties, not promoting and advertising them - the un-publicised addition of this clause has clearly perverted the purpose of the bill. I should not need to remind people that there is already a "Civic and Political Organization Center" designated as "A place where nations can discuss civic issues in the region and build political organizations." As such, I submit a proposal to strike the words "top-level" from this law. EDIT: It must be noted that since I wrote this Glen has moved the political parties down the forums, into a less blatantly improper position - as such this is no longer quite so much of a major issue, but the fact that he thought he could get away with the original forum organisation despite the rather blatant conflict of interest and the associated misuse of his status as an admin is still something I find troublesome.

You know what words also appear in the law that don't appear in Tsu's original version?
"The South Pacific" "senior Cabinet officials" "who organize together in an official association for political or electoral purposes" " a password-protected subforum, which will have the necessary permissions to ensure non-members cannot read threads without authorization." Literally all of section 2 Literally all of Section 4 It's almost as if my draft was a complete overhaul of Tsu's idea, with several parts that were in direct opposition. But, yeah, you don't like that political party forums aren't buried underneath an avalanche of subforums. So now you're accusing me -- a common pattern now! -- of somehow sneaking words into a publicly debated document. That you actually voted for.
You can take this to the court if you want to. Just saying.
Above all else, I hope to be a decent person.
