Activity Caucus

[President Tyrion]

Hello folks. As if there weren't enough political groups around, I thought I'd make another. The premise is simple. We all take a pledge (sound enough like a cult, yet?) to be as active as possible in our governance. It's a simple act to take such a pledge, and something that transcends political boundaries. I was thinking the pledge would be rather simple:

I pledge to be as active in Atlasia as I can be, and do justice to the positions to which I have been elected/appointed. I pledge to resign from office if I or a majority of my electorate believe that I have failed my promise to be active. If real life concerns interfere, I pledge to inform the public, and make a prudent decision of whether or not I can reasonably continue to hold office.

I'm torn on whether or not to include that second sentence about resigning from office if one fails to meet that standard. Thoughts?

[PJ]

I will join this caucus/repeat the pledge when it is finalized.

I think the last sentence is fine, as long as we just say "I'm having RL issues." I wouldn't want everyone in the forum to know what the said problem is.

Great idea, Atlasia is game that needs proper concern and activity to function, and therefore I will gladly support such a pledge.

Not to be Johnny Raincloud over here, but this 'pledge' is kinda common sense.

Any Pacifican would disagree.

Ah well, that's a land of which I know nothing.

An example would be a certain unnamed councillor who has not voted on anything.

One would think. Take a look at the state of the Senate, if regional politics aren't your thing. There's constant difficulty to try and get Senators to opine on certain issues, and it's a bit tough just to get people to vote.

While we're on the topic of taking pledges, I thought I would dredge this up.
