I have seen Jesse not-in-a-cowboy-hat. So I move that that proposal be changed to "Jesse SHOULD always wear a cowboy hat," in which case I vote yes.
But that's just my point! You she obeys! She obeys you! There's obeying going on right under my nose!

Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!
We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!

I propose that the use of ASSCAPS in conjunction with the word 'witch' always be met with a simple, calm, "She turned me into a NEWT!"

Nobody
'Cause the NEWT name still means something?

Hi there. Let me gather up my past posts of language and put together my suggested ballot.

OK - here is what I have. I think Proposal three may be confusing and I know some people think it is unnecessary. ANy assistance in making it clearer is appreciated:
PROPOSAL: The following procedure will be in place for warning a poster about unacceptable behaviour.
1. A user-complainant will try to resolve the complaint on-thread. If unsuccessful,
2. A user-complainant (does not need to be same person) will post in-thread that it's time to meet in Bureaucracy.
3. A user-complainant posts in Bureaucracy outlining complaint and linky citations, and requests a Warning.
4. At least 10 other users in 48 hours second the need for a Warning. If 10 other users do not complain within the 48 hour period, no complaint can be made again about that particular incident, unless it is being used to illustrate, with others, a pattern of demon-like behaviour.
5. As soon as the request for warning receives 10 seconds, Stompy sets forth a Warning over email and in Bureaucracy.
Yes/No
PROPOSAL: Warnings will be in effect for four months. After four months, the slate is wiped clean.
Yes/No
PROPOSAL: The procedure for lodging a complaint and requesting action after an initial Warning, will be the same as for a Warning. (in-thread attempt, post in Bureaucracy, 10 seconds in 48 hours, action).
Yes/No
PROPOSAL: The poster known as ita should have to change her on board name to bo bita.
Yes/No

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The only suggestion I have is this part:
5. As soon as the request for warning receives 10 seconds, Stompy sets forth a Warning over email and in Bureaucracy.
I think either the warning should be posted in the thread where the incident occured, or a link to the warning in Bureaucracy should be posted there. Just to avoid excuse-making.
