Bad Luck Unicario

Finally got into the Presidency; During the period of inactivity

I was seriously thinking exactly the same thing!

[Britanno]

The subforum was supposed to launch our activity, but despite the bid being planned for months, it still hasn't been made.

Look, the mods are going to deny our bid because we are having inactivity. It's a catch-22 really.

In that case, we should wait until summer when we get our annual load of activity. People might be seeing senate threads on the sidebar a lot then, so we could get support because people will be aware of our activity.

Hello Greeners, I'm going around each parties to list dead party members if the party decides to do their purgings of dead party members

-Dead Party Members (in the members category):
Quebec and Atlantic Canada

Noted, will be removed soon.

[Pesda]

I move for a whip in favour of the Energy Savings Act. It would be a real shame if it were to fail.

Seconded.

[Wolfmanne]

By any chance Oneracon are you Maltese as well?

Maltese on my dad's side.

The new President of Malta is actually my second cousin!

Same, my other half of me is Nicaraguan, although I feel a lot closer to my Maltese side, and anyway my Maltese family usually forget that I'm half Nicaraguan and consider me full Maltese . Soon I'll be getting Maltese citizenship and be ineligible for Nicaraguan citizenship anyway.

My second cousin is Toni Abela, Deputy Leader of the Labour Party. Glad to know that your family is a Labour one.

I'm hoping to get Maltese citizenship soon (having an EU passport is handy), but it turns out that I may already be a Netherlands citizen by birth thanks to a loophole in their nationality law. Still need to do more digging for that.

Well at least one part of my family is, there is a bit of a schism between the PL and PN supporters.

Seconded.

I think this is enough? There are 26 members on the list, but some have ceased to exist, so I think we would round it down?

[Pesda]

I have a question. Why is Haelunor on the blacklist? Having read the relevant document it seems that a member needs to commit three offences before being added to the blacklist.

Apparently; you'll see it underneath the member list. And the only person on that list is Haelunor. For some reason.

[The Nihilistic view]

Oh, beats me. Must be something to do with the resignation.

[Pesda]

Which, to my knowledge, isn't enough of a reason.

[The Nihilistic view]

Why don't you resign and see if you get put on the list.

Anyway much of what went down could have been by TG so it's useless us speculating.

fascist slave driving twat aside I have not seen Uni do something without good reason in the senate before. So I can only conclude there was good reason.

Still, it's best if proper procedure is followed. I'll wait to see what Uni says.

[Unicario]

He was blacklisted for his general bad attitude.

Proper Procedure and Unacceptable Behavior
Drafted by Polvia
Adopted on 17 May 2013

Article IV – Punishment

(1) Should the Chairman find the utterances of a particular Member offensive or disorderly, that Member will be requested to post on the thread and to withdraw the unacceptable word or phrase unequivocally. The Member’s apology is accepted in good faith and the matter is then considered closed.
(2) However, if the Member persists in refusing to obey the directive of the Chairman to retract his or her words, the Chairman may then take action in punishment of the Member in question.
(3) The Member who has refused to withdraw their statements shall be warned of the punishment that will be given should they not withdraw their statements in their next immediate post on the party thread in question.
(4) Upon the first offense the Member shall be temporarily banned from the party, and all party threads, for five days, and shall lose all voting and party privileges, if they have such privileges, until three days of good behavior after returning to the party.
(5) Upon the second offense the Member shall be banned from the party, lose all claim of membership and all party threads for ten days. The Member must then reapply to the party, and shall not have any voting and party privileges, if they have such privileges, until seven days of good behavior after returning to the party.
(6) Upon the third offense the Member shall be permanently banned from the party and party threads, and have their name added to a blacklist.

I believe that three offences need to be committed before you're added to the blacklist, unless this is out of date.

[Haelunor]

I did not realize the Chairman was this petty.

If adding me to a silly little blacklist makes you feel better, go ahead.

Hae quit, so members rules would not apply in this case.

Only applies to members. Non-members can be blacklisted/banned from the topic at the Chairman's discretion, and can only be reversed *by* a Chairman.

However, my reason for blacklisting Haelunor is thusly:
He quit the party in a temper tantrum because select party members got into office fair and square. I'm not going to act like what he did was okay or in the spirit of the party at all.

The Red-Greens uphold the idea that we treat all of our members with respect, dignity, regardless of if they're members of other parties. The Central Committee is open to *all* candidates that are registered members of the party, and it flies in the face of socialist brotherhood to be so petty as to threaten to resign because someone is elected to the CC when you have the full power to run against them. It is absolutely pointless to threat and then quit entirely because someone takes a democratic office completely within party rules and bylaws. It's attempting to bully the democratic system to your desires. That's why I have blacklisted him following his resignation from the party.

A future Chairman may reverse this blacklist, but it's staying as-is, unless someone has a good justification for the counter-point.

I did not realize the Chairman was this petty.

If adding me to a silly little blacklist makes you feel better, go ahead.

You're not welcome here. Get out.

[Pesda]

Okay then. Can the chairman confirm that the whip on the ESA has enough support?
