Now in the specific case being discussed, computer problems seem to have occurred. But I don't think "people having lives" explains that people can get on to send a TG, but not to spend 20 seconds posting "AYE". I'm sorry, but why can people get on to TG someone but not post?

Clicking on NS icon opens NS page where person can copy and paste a sentence into their reply, which takes about 2 seconds. This may be doable than going on forums, finding chamber's thread, getting up to speed on whats being voted and then vote.

Not the point. It's possible, and therefore it's bad.

It is possible that someone hacks into another person's account and votes. Therefore voting must be banned.

The fact that the Coalition is trying so hard to defend proxy voting suggests they have a less-than-honest reason for allowing the practice, if you ask me.

[Jozef van Oostvoorne]

Not really. I can do this in MSPaint as well.

Fine. How about a physical picture?

That's better. Though, I'm quite sure there are ways to show pictures full-screen on your monitor.

The point is, it is very possible to forge other people's statements in such a way. And I believe we should act in an as safe as possible way when it comes to voting in the Senate. This goes against that.

[Grand Britannia]

I vote Nay on the confirmation of John Geil as Prime Minister

No, I think we just want the vote because it helps us. That is not less than honest.

Not with the Metro version of IE10.

This is much less easy for someone to do, however. All you have to do in order to forge a vote is make a printscreen, fire up Paint and write what down what you want the other person to say.

I have absolutely no idea how to hack someone's account, and this is therefore much less fraud-sensitive.

I wouldn't know, sorry.

Let it be known that I believe your particular case to be true, though. I just don't think this should be allowed for reasons mentioned earlier.

[Koumintang Taiwan]

The KMT hereby throws its support for John Geil as PM.

I KNEW it. I KNEW he ate babies.

Seriously, though, that seems like a serious issue.

So we could have a case for voter fraud?

Internet Explorer doesn't have "Inspect element". Your argument is invalid.

And it is equally easy to create thousands of puppets or hack another person's account. Does that mean we should ban voting online?

Why would one need to use Internet Explorer? I don't use it.

Are you seriously claiming hacking an account is "just as easy" as using MSPaint?

No, it's not equally easy to hack someone's account. Not in any way. Same with creating "thousands" of puppets, especially seeing as we caught someone creating just one of them in the Applications thread.

I meant in my case.

The only reason I used IE was because no one could accuse me of editing the HTML document.
