I'm not sure if this really a legit grounds to judge candidate for this office, but given how much of the groundwork infrastructure of MoE is tech-based... are you comfortable with technology? Coding? Things of that nature? I think that's what Waffle was trying to get at.

I second the sentiment but, to the question, I am comfortable with tech and coding, yes. I've created a variety of scripts and programs that have helped Refugia's general infrastructure, as well as given the defender faction an added edge in our work.

There are certainly more experienced, educated, or qualified programmers than myself, but one has to wonder how accessible the Minister of Engagement position is if the required familiarity is at the expert level. If the barrier to entry is too great for future generations, it may be worth directing especially complicated maintenance to non-political administrative roles, similar to how the forum administration works. There are, after all, a wide range of citizens with insightful ideas, but who may not necessarily be programming experts, themselves.
