[DISCUSSION] Multi-stage application processes

Rather than being confronted from the get-go with the current form with freaky questions a day-one newbie doesn't understand like "what's your main nation", it's a smaller approach. So, list your nation, your Discord handle, and off you go. Then Nakari comes in and says "Hi, welcome to TSP! I see you have a new nation, have you played NationStates before or is this your first time?". Viet might ask "Do you have another nation that has World Assembly membership?", etc.

If the problem is that the form is too confusing, perhaps it needs clearer questions? The idea of having to drip-feed security questions seems like it will just slow everything down and restrain new people from actually experiencing the Assembly from the inside - which isn't a bad way to learn. 

Suggestion: In a legislator's first month, they are currently considered exempt from losing their legislator status, even if they don't vote or participate at all. Perhaps the exemption should only be given if they participate in some sort of university course, and they can be directed to this if they don't show any other activity? So at the end of the month Chair/LegComm would approach a member who hasn't voted and say "Hey, you haven't done anything in the Assembly - you should take a look at these guides or you might lose status."
