The Official 2011 (Theoretical) Grasscity Presidential Campaign.

  1. Items on my polls would not be limited to just the staff, though. You would be able to make a poll question and have it polled for your Music Hall idea and if it got support, which it surely would as the great idea that it is, then the mods will be more likely to consider it. Rather than just as a single suggestion from a single user, it will be an idea proposed by a single user and widely supported by fellow blades.

    If users take extended breaks, then that won't make a difference in the polls as a way of showing what will be best for the community. Such users aren't fully active members in the community and won't know the current events as much anyway, so their votes would only skew the results. For example, I took a few days off, which just happened to be at the fall of the DH thread. If it were brought to a vote, whether the DH thread should be suspended or not, then I would've showed up just in time to vote that it shouldn't be suspended, but I had no knowledge of the rule breaking that occurred during my leave and such a decision would not be in the best interest of GC.

    That's why democratic voting is best. My vote would be buried by the countless other blades who saw the decline within the thread and would vote for a temporary suspension. Also, with a poll, alternative solutions could've been brought to the table during the suspension, potentially expediting the threads return. If I am elected president, it will create a link between the decisions being made behind closed doors and the ears of our fellow blades. Instead of being left in the dark, I will be able to report the current progress in the return of the DH thread. I will be able to do this because I am already on great terms with the staff. I already know more about the progress of the DH thread than most users because of PM's I've had with staff and if I were to win the presidency, it would give me the power to officially liaison between blades and the staff.

    The polls will help me form and gauge the voice of our fellow blades, as the staff or I or you, should you win, could not possibly talk to every blade and determine what the consensus is. I'm not taking away the possibility of on the fly decision making, either, though. If a risk needs to be taken and a more hasty decision made, I will not hesitate to make it, as long as it incorporates a blanket benefit and won't have a negative effect on any blades.
     

  2. Good debate. :D

    In the end, the vote is going to come down to who supports your more liberal views or my more conservative ones.

    Looks like the political spectrum is present in even this election! :D
    Once again, I wish you good luck. Seems we're the only serious contestants in this.

  3. My views shouldn't be confused with liberal views. lol I am merely a proponent of democracy, which has nothing to do with liberal vs. conservative issues. One could argue the implementation of the polling would be progressive, but so would implementing sections in the Music Hall. :smoke: I also maintain conservative views in that SJ should retain supreme power and hold the final say in matters. :wave:
