Amendment to Article I and Article XIII of the Charter. |
I propose the following (green represents things being added):
Quote:I. CONSTITUTIONAL LAWS Quote:XIII. AMENDMENT PROCESSThe reasoning behind the first amendment is that by giving the Chair that much authority, without any legislators calling for the measure to be put to an in-game vote, the Chair would have the unchecked ability to just move anything to the in-game. I'm not saying I would abuse this, but by instituting simple checks we can prevent any future abuses of that. I would ask these amendments be voted on separately should we decide to vote on them. Above all else, I hope to be a decent person.

I'm fairly opposed to allowing any old malcontent to force in-game votes on any piece of legislation, just by motioning for it. This violates the constitutional structure we passed, which prevents the Assembly from meddling in in-game matters in the first place.
The second amendment is superfluous, but doesn't change the meaning anyways. So I'm indifferent. It should be obvious that "amendment" means Charter amendment when it's used under an article solely about Charter amendments. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I'm with Glen on both parts here. Neither of these are necessary. The second as mentioned is in the section on Charter amendments and the first is an attempt to clarify something that was already unambiguous in the first place.
Well, should I revoke this proposal I will only have the power to allow Charter amendments to go to a game side vote. If we are fine with that I see no reason as to why any of this is needed. If no one objects in 24 hours this proposal will be revoked.
Above all else, I hope to be a decent person.

I mean, if you don't believe that you're capable of doing it fairly, then that's an issue...
But the Charter intends for the Chair to be a reasonable person capable of making these types of decisions, rather than having to codify every possibility of the universe into our laws so we never have to rely on personal judgement. |
