[WITHDRAWN]Commend Bruxxa (written by Cerata)

[Outer Sparta]

Seeing as this submission (as of this time) has 49 approvals with just over two days to go till voting ends, time to post it (edit: submission had reached quorum), (second edit: original author withdrew the submission).

THE WORLD ASSEMBLY

NOTING that this nation contributed greatly to many diplomatically powerful and peaceful regions, including the now-defunct The Tavern and The Vincence Empire as well as contributing to many others;

CONSIDERING that artwork from this nation was once greatly prized, sometimes exchanging hands for hundreds of standard-momentary units, showing that this nation is well trusted and believed in;

FURTHER NOTING that this nation has been passive, peaceful, and diplomatically strong on all fronts, contributing to interregional peace;

HEREBY commends Bruxxa.

Not drafted on the forums and the nominee isn't commendable. Also noteworthy that the author submitted this FOUR separate times, which is another clear sign they didn't bother to draft it on the forums and that it lacks any quality.

Tbh I don’t know what to even say about this proposal, except it’s just going to waste 3 days of voting. And on the off chance this passes, I’m already writing a repeal.

Campaign telegram from Cerata

Hi! I'm Cerata! You may not know it, but there is a security assembly proposal that I wrote right now. The person I am commending is leaving NS and I want him to be happy and come back! :3! So please vote yes for it. It would mean the world to me.

Also right here the author admitted to this just being a badge hunt

[Honeydewistania]

Dont bother writing a repeal lol. It's not gonna pass

[Tinhampton]

There already exists a thread for this.

support =p

support =p

Mines better tho =D

You support everything though, that doesn’t mean anything

[Grishahakkaverchynot]

Yeah, if this makes it to vote, I am voting against.

[Outer Sparta]

Obviously opposed to this. Not drafted, not well-written, nominee is not commendable, and the author admitted to wanting a badge. Terrible resolution and the author is opportunistic.

[Bhang Bhang Duc]

Right, let's dissect this then.

THE WORLD ASSEMBLY
NOTING that this nation contributed greatly to many diplomatically powerful and peaceful regions, including the now-defunct The Tavern and The Vincence Empire as well as contributing to many others;

So a now non-existent region and some backwater. If they contributed to so many others what were they or were they just figments of the authors imagination?

CONSIDERING that artwork from this nation was once greatly prized, sometimes exchanging hands for hundreds of standard-momentary units, showing that this nation is well trusted and believed in;

Well, this is a clause that is known in the trade as complete and utter bollocks.

FURTHER NOTING that this nation has been passive, peaceful, and diplomatically strong on all fronts, contributing to interregional peace;
HEREBY commends Bruxxa.

How can you be passive and diplomatically strong on all fronts at the same time? How have they contributed to interregional peace?

The nominee is a complete unknown and the author is, by their own admission, just hunting a badge.

[Concrete Slab]

General Bruxxa... you're shorter than I expected.

[Baloo Kingdom]

I'm a fan of Bruxxa and a fan of possible Commendation, and I am one of the original disciples under him. However, if he is to be commended, I'd rather have the proposal be much more widely accepted by the WA community. Not being in the WA, this could be hard to judge. I know that a lot of people approved this proposal (as it is currently in quorum), but I also know that a large number of WA members have criticized it for not clearly highlighting all of Bruxxa's commendable IC achievements, such as his rather successful co-formation my current regional line, spanning over dozens of separate regions of nations coinciding with each other through the bonds of shared history. That's just off of the top of my head for now. Cerata did include a small section on the value of artwork from Bruxxa, but I believe more can be said on the clear importance of the artwork to many collectors whether from my regional line or foreign. These are my thoughts about the matter, being an insider.

[Sorianora]

So a now non-existent region and some backwater. If they contributed to so many others what were they or were they just figments of the authors imagination?

Yep! We’re commending them for a region that lasted 5 months and didn’t reach 1000 rmb pages.
Had the author done any research, they would have none that Bruxxa’s original region led to a rather active and popular region Bluecrown Keep and it’s descendant Callista not just the Vincence Empire.

How can you be passive and diplomatically strong on all fronts at the same time? How have they contributed to interregional peace?

Again, commending a nation for being neutral in foreign relations? That’s absolutely not commendable.

Obviously Against

[Grishahakkaverchynot]

Yeah, this will get destroyed in voting.
The author didn't even bother drafting on the forums.

If this makes it to vote (which it sadly will), expect me voting against.

[Cerata]

What, so you people are now bullying newbies? Sure, there's a 99.98% chance that it's gonna fail, but this is my first time.. k? I didn't even bother drafting it on the forums because I'm stubborn. If I could garner the max+3 amount of votes in a 32 hour period, I can say I'm proud of myself. That's all the self motivation I need.

It’s not “bullying” it’s called advice.
Question: if you thinks it’s going to fail, why waste 4 days of voting on it?

Tbh any proposal can reach 61 approvals in 3 days. There are over 1000 delegates and most will give their rubber stamps of approval.

[Cerata]

Plus, I know it's gonna fail. I'm a failure. I'm an idiot. I don't have anything in my life.

No, we’re providing a critique of a mediocre attempt at writing a proposal. And the fact this is your first time won’t wash as an excuse - I’ve seen plenty of first timers produce a legal, well researched and nicely written draft.

Playing the bullying card is not really a good thing to do.

So apparently you think that criticism of your poorly-written proposal counts as "bullying?" We're telling you that the nominee is in no way commendable and that you yourself admitted that it's a badge hunt. Next time, please draft a resolution on the forums instead of pushing through a poorly-attempted resolution.

Ok. Thanks for the advice! I'll be sure to do my research next time.

Would you mind taking down the proposal now?

[GruffyRichard and HillbillyBob]

*guy busting in with a crazy third option*
I think we should vote yes for it, and when the friend returns, repeal it!

You should pull the proposal and either abandon it or if you want to keep on working, then post a separate thread on your draft.

[Nooooooooooooooo]

I love democracy.

[The Python]

Usually commendable nominees are long-time gameplayers (most, examples: Roavin, Vippertooth33, Kuriko), or rarely, card farmers (example: 9003) or issues answerers with very high rankings (example: Kindjal).

Bruxxa is none of these.
