I wish the senate to propose the following bill:

If registered members wish to switch regions, a two week waiting period must be done before the member is registered in the new region. During this waiting period, the member can change his mind, but each change creates a new 14-day wait, unless he wishes to stay in his former state.

I like the Home State Bill idea, but I don't like the restriction. If somebody wishes to become a registered person of a state, they change as many times as they like, they simply do not become registered until the 14 days is up.

I vote nay. I don't want to discuss this; it's nowhere near as good as the home state bill. I'm against uneccesary bills, that already have an equal or better, and therefore, encourage everyone to vote nay on this not because its bad but because the other bill is better.

No need to vote, Hughento, unless and until an actual senator proposes it.

Please consider the Home State Bill already proposed before looking at this one.

The problem with the Home State bill is that it makes it seem authoritarian- as if the government is denying you rights. Hence, I think that the government can use the rights it already has instead of expanding governmental rights. The idea is good, but the method is seemingly authoritarian.

Sometimes authority is needed, ior the whole game is belittled. Stunts like yours, with Josh, are bad for the forum. Whilst this bill may have stopped that, it wouldn't solve the problem fully.

We need to eradicate this pesterance.
