Plus you've already authored multiple resolutions, why not give the native a chance to become an author too.
Because this one will actually pass, and I would rather not have a repeal that looks like it was written by a three year on the books. If a native wants a co-author tag for this, they can TG me...

My hypothetical support or lack thereof of the UDL is irrelevant to the repeal at hand.Solorni wrote:If Luna distances him or herself from his or her time in the UDL, then I will not support this effort.

This is a terrible clause to lead with. It says absolutely nothing. You could replace it with most actions, and it'd be equally true:Ramaeus wrote:Recognizing that, while controlling several nations with unique domestic structures is a marginally impressive accomplishment, it is one which is easily accomplished with careful preparation and diligence,
Solid criticism to an extent. Tommy Bahama achieved that feat first. In fact I congratulated him when he hit 3 100's. My rebuttal to that would be that none of the achievements outlined in the commendation are unique in the long run. At the time of the resolution however, they were.Ramaeus wrote:Asserting that SC#123 contradicts itself by calling the domestic structures Luna Amore established within their puppet nations as “unique”, while also acknowledging that Luna Amore is not the first nation to have accomplished the governmental constructs shown in their puppets H- and On Beyond Zebra,
Like the first clause, this doesn't really say anything. It basically says, 'It's easy to notice a different population pattern when you're looking at populations.'Ramaeus wrote:Noting that studying population growth is a task easily accomplished by viewing the nation's census records, which diminishes the accomplishment of Luna Amore in this regard,
I actually don't think my defense of Free Thought is terribly commendable and it's probably the weakest part of the resolution.Ramaeus wrote:Acknowledging that, while Luna Amore's defense of Free Thought is a commendable action, it is the only one present in SC#123 which may be called such,
The commendation can be described many ways but vague is not one of them. It spells out each point succinctly and clearly. Luna Amore did X,Y, and Z. Nation A is Foo, Nation B is Fud, and so on.Ramaeus wrote:Believing that, where SC#123 may detail an impressive accomplishment, it does so in such vague terms that it effectively nullifies the accomplishment in question,

Since Luna was part of an organization that threatened to coup Balder, I think it is safe to say that we would support a repeal of this.

Well forgiveness is one thing in the international forum that seems to be amiss

He could have been making a point GR, depending on whether Chester believes Mouse deserves the commendation.
