No sir, the totality of those currently here agree that the template alone is not enough for a commendation.

I disagree with fluffing up the proposal with insignificant sentences just to make it longer. If it's length you all want then let me break out the thesaurus and see if I can find some longer words.


I agree. Adding a few meaningless sentences doesn't make a proposal better.

You have now submitted this 4 times without getting it to quorum. I would think you would begin to get the message at some point.

Corrected. Also, some delegates don't give any shits about approving either, so maybe about let's say 600

What probably happened was he quoted, and while trimming what was quoted, accidentally deleted the wrong quote box.
