Conserative Morality wrote:"It's not time yet" is a tactic used by reactionaries in every era. "It's not time for democracy, it's not time for capitalism, it's not time for emancipation." Of course it's not time. It's never time, not on its own. You make it time. If you're under fire in the no-man's land of WW1, you start digging a foxhole even if the ideal time would be when you *aren't* being bombarded, because once you wait for it to be 'time', other situations will need your attention, assuming you survive that long. If the fields aren't furrowed, plow them. If the iron is not hot, make it so. If society is not ready, change it.

I echo this reply in the thread of Commend CWA, you could make the same argument for Joy.Frisbeeteria wrote:As opposed to raiding or roleplaying? There's a ton of work involved, probably more than most suspect ... and it impacts everyone in the game. It's absolutely worth a commendation.
It's a shame R1 won't let us recognize the work CWA has done as Senior Issues Editor, because that's been absolutely MASSIVE. There is an incredible amount behind-the-scenes stuff being done by them. Whether the SC recognizes them or not, I want it clearly understood that staff members are pretty much in awe of the work being done by the Issues team under CWA's leadership. Despite this proposal necessarily being limited to the 3 or 5 issues created before they joined the team, it's still worthy of SC recognition.

Joy is among the most respected individuals within the issues community. Their total number of issue contributions currently total 36. Many of these issues cannot be specifically mentioned in the proposal, but to ignore this contribution from an objective standpoint would simply be malpractice , in my opinion. Similarly, Joy tirelessly responds to comment within the community from Authors and Readers to correct mistakes and fine tune the issue base. Sometimes, this isn't the most encouraging task, as some feedback can be less than respectful. These contributions are usually thankless, and obviously cannot be mentioned in a resolution, but it would simply be unconscionable to ignore them from an objective standpoint.
Joy has built a reputation for excellence, elegance, and maintains an enduring presence within the issues community. Joy inspires and encourages others- look no further than my signature. It is for these reasons why I find Joy to be worthy of recognition. This resolution is indeed a Condemnation, but I believe C/Cs to be a badges of honor, of which Joy is no doubt deserving of.

To ignore the issues not listed in this resolution is to adhere to and respect the rules of this chamber. If you don't like them, take it to technical. The site staff are working on a SC rules rewrite at this very moment, so there's no better time to suggest changes.

Wallenburg, clearly I am not making the assertion that Joy should be recognized for anything impermissible under the current SC ruleset. I only sought to explain my thought process for why I, personally, view the nominee as worthy of being nominated for recognition because I, personally, was asked.
