As I've said countless times, this has to be a constitutional amendment.

But I'd support it, once it's changed to an amendment, if the rate was dropped to a month or two.

Yes unfortunately I don't think they do. Tongue

Just curious to see how long I'd have to complain about it before people started paying attention to anything around here. I shouldn't have to be the one to fix an obvious and stated error in a bill that isn't even mine.

Since this Senate can neither read nor write properly:

6 months is far too long and I'm not exactly sure what increasing the post requirement will do to solve anything. People who are trolling don't care about it, zombies will spam for it, and good members will suffer underneath it.

I hardly like it either, I was simply writing it the way it needed to be in accordance with the general time frame people wanted.

I must concur with my Mideastern friend, I'm afraid.

Aye. Let the regions vote on it, since it's an amendment.

I'm noticing a trend here.

Given that this has been changed into a Constitutional Amendment, does it not require 7 votes, not 6?

I change my vote to Nay


Voting on this bill is coming to an end in less than 24 hours, the current tally is this:

Nays (4): Marokai Blue, Fritz, North Carolina Yankee, Tmthforu94
Ayes (4): RowanBrandon, MaxQue, Jas, Hashemite
Abstentions (1): Franzl


Afleitch is the last remaining vote before it can be closed immediately, but since this currently requires 7 Ayes to pass to the regions, passage of this Amendment is looking unlikely.

With 5 Nays, 4 Ayes, and 1 Abstention this Amendment has failed.
