I like the idea of this bill. However, I would like to be certain before we pass it that there are people (preferably multiple people so as to allow for future replacements, but at least one person) interested in running the Atlasian NPR.

I think I have the same exact concerns, though the spoken word is not exactly preferable to the written word when it comes to recording the events here for posterity.

I can carry a part of the load.

if we have enough people willing to step up and record audio news, then that would be great. But we probably won't. It's good legislation, though, and it ought to be considered again if not passed at this juncture.

We could just provide a transcript...

Hah...you know, Friz actually voted opposite Ebowed once!  I think it was on one of my amendments, Friz was the only vote opposing it, and there was little rationale behind voting against it.

Not that Friz has ever explained or debated a vote here in the Senate...

37 posts on this board. This after being a senator for how long?

Somebody provide me with a good reason he was appointed, and I'll call off my campaign.

As I have said before, I'll take the job. Watch me, Ebowed. Just you wait.

Ill bite. Prove me wrong Ebowed, and pass this thing. Youre honestly gonna bet me that we cant find a person to simply type a post every few days discussing things everyone already knows at the time? Ill take this one any day of the week.

I have no doubt that we can find a person to write it, I simply don't think there's going to be anyone to read it.

A meaningless job is nothing more than that, a meaningless job.

As I have said before, I'll take the job. Watch me, Ebowed. Just you wait.

A good reason to vote against the bill.

Don't like me?

I don't like your name, I don't like your contributions to the Comedy Goldmine (who still thinks gporter is funny?  stop feeding the trolls), and based on how you offered yourself for this position I highly doubt you would be able to perform this job "without bias or opinion."

1) I'm sorry, but unlike most liberals, political correctness is not one of my strong suits.
2) I'll take a funny troll any day.
3) I offered myself before. I just want to prove I can do the job without bias or opinion, which you seem to be suggesting nobody can do.

If you have any other objections, please state them.

Unless you have some salient point to make with your username and general enjoyment of Mein Kampf, I suggest you put a sock in it.


Uh huh.  Welcome to eight months ago.  It's not funny anymore.  It never really was in the first place.

3) I offered myself before. I just want to prove I can do the job without bias or opinion, which you seem to be suggesting nobody can do.

You're an uninformed newbie / liberal hack.  I don't expect objectivity, but then again, like every other Atlasian, I don't plan on reading the "NPR recordings" because no one will be updating it after two months anyway.

If you have any other onjections, please state them.

Okay.  You are in violation of the forum's Terms of Service for being registered while under 13.

No, I am 13. That is not under 13.

I've read 12 elsewhere, and recently, so if that's the case, happy belated birthday.  Did you crack jokes with your friends about how cool and funny Adolf was?  You know, for the un-PC humor?

Yes, Jesus called me 12. I corrected him (in a tongue-in-cheek manner). And if you cannot find the significance behind my name, I will leave you hangng.

I urge my fellow senators to ignore the testamony of Senator Ebowed, as he clearly is speaking out of his emotions towards a fellow Atlasian, rather than out of a rational concern about the bill.

He asked for my objections, so I gave them.

My points about this bill all stand, many of them un-answered, and I don't expect the Senate to rationally consider any of them.

Even if nobody reads them now, they may in the future, when trying to understand Atlasia's history. Even if it ends after two months, like you say, people combing the archives will have a clear picture of two months of Atlasia history. Where is the harm?

Then I sincerely hope you will apply for a wiki user name and keep that up to date, because I will be voting against this bill.  Like Ebowed said, this is destined for failure.

I have a wiki username.

My point still stands.

And, to please all of you, I can post all NPR broadcasts on the Wiki.

The Wiki is just too much. To keep something that large up to date is impossible.

The Wiki is supposed to be updated by the Attorney General, and it has been done successfully before.  It is not too hard to keep it up to speed.

The AG isn't doing that great a job, though.

Check out the post I made. Tell me what you don't like about it.

Considering that this 'Radio Atlasia' experiment is already falling into decay (there is nothing particularly notable about party conventions, and the like, that would warrant anything more than a passing mention), I hope the Senate does not pass this bill.

Why don't you tell us what there should be, then, Senator?

That's hardly similar if we voiced one concern in common.

BTW posting private messages is a huge violation of the forum ToS.

Is it? I wasn't aware. Sorry.


Nothing, because the idea is pointless. Atlasia doesn't generate enough news to warrant daily historical records.

They're not daily. It's two or three times a week.

As has been noted posting PM's without permission is against the rules, posts modified because of it.

Okay. Thanks for letting me know.
