Inspired by this line, so that people hopefully get the message, a new clause has been added about the nurturing environment.

Koz, it may not be necessary and is probably up to authors opinion, but can you hyperlink the region in the hereby clause? I think its just nicer sometimes if you do

. Also, looks beautiful :hug:

Thank you all for your comments. I will submit this soon, this has been a long process already.

Some of these clauses still feel a bit bloated and redundant to me, particularly the beginning of clauses 2 and 4. I think a clause quickly summarizing the age and history of the region maybe combined with the history of raids that you already have would also be nice.

I think that this is probably the best I can do with respect to the bloated clauses, because the information in those clauses can't be trimmed down any further in my opinion. I'll work on the history of it a little bit.

I recently got to know this region and its players and it is a really warm and nurturing and culturally rich region

Good luck ^.^

Great work! I was looking for what to cut down, but it seems to flow as is and I wouldn't want to disrupt that. The resolution definitely has my vote when it's proposed.

Please approve of this proposal Delegates, thank you!

I urge WA Delegates to approve this proposal! Please and thank you!

by **Lamoni** » Tue Jun 26, 2018 8:40 pm

With only 12 more hours to go, this proposal still needs 18 more WA Delegates to approve it, before it can go up for a vote. I urge all WA Delegates to approve this proposal, so that it can go to vote. Thank you.

EDIT: Thank you everyone who added their approvals. Commend Greater Dienstad has reached quorum, and is heading to vote!

Good job, everyone. Had me a bit worried there for a moment.

Now let's get this passed!

Tfw you have to raid a couple regions to get enough delegates to sign off on a resolution.

I honestly don't think that is the case

It wasn’t. I was on a raid while this resolution was submitted, but I took the native votes and argued for the resolution. And plenty of other people voted.

Proud that I could be the first Delegate to vote for this resolution. GD seems like a fine and upstanding region with major RP ties. I've ran across them several times over the years, and I'm not all that tied in to the RP-sphere.

Good luck!

Thank you so much!

I request everyone to vote "for" as well! Greater Dienstad is an amazing region and deserves to be commended. Thank you so much.

So the mention of RP is forbidden. But I`ve seen commendations based upon contributions to sport, which is just RP. Seems silly.
I vote aye. Kozmix is The Man.

Directly saying the word “roleplay” would be a rules violation. This resolution does mention lots of RP it just doesn’t call it roleplay. The rules are no different for sports RP.

They deserved it more than most, so it makes sense.

That makes me feel ultra giddy. Thank you so much to everyone who helped in this entire process. Special thanks to Ransium, who provided the best criticism in this entire thing, and Lenlyvit, who helped me from start to end. Also thanks to the people who spread the word, the Delegates who approved and the people who voted.

Great job, Kozmix.

by **Lamoni** » Tue Jul 03, 2018 1:22 pm

On behalf of Greater Dienstad, I would like to thank Kozmix, for putting this resolution together, and working on it until it passed. I would also like to thank everyone who helped Kozmix throughout the process, as well as everyone who voted for it. This WA commendation has been the product of a lot of hard work over 13+ years, and we will continue the work that we have been doing over these long (but fun) years.

Thank you again, everyone. This is a high honor.

We usually wait at least a few weeks before archiving in case any additional discussion happens. It will get archived on its own.
