To further address Antonio's comments, I don't think the HAEV should be that efficient of a mechanism in the first place. It's intent, in my view, is not to quickly wipe away half of Atlasia, but rather, to carefully evaluate certain users, seek to bring them into the fold, and if that is not possible, remove them from the voter roll.

I think people would agree that even by the most strenuous interpretation of "JCP zombies" in the last election I still would've been comfortably elected. If anything I think the ARC (Populares) would've been hurt worse, but I'm just as leery about weeding them out when those so called "zombies" may wind up being strongly contributing Atlasians in the future.


Hold it right there...

Last election I would have been considered a zombie, Dallasfan would have been considered a zombie, FallenMorgan would have been considered a zombie, etc.

Now none of us are zombies. That is the purpose of the Populares: we are by nature anti-zombie, and our solution is to increase activity, not filter out those who we have a vendetta against.

Looking back, JCP candidates totaled more zombies than Mint did. That's not debatable.

That none of you are zombies now does not mean you were not zombies then. Now, I won't make the judgement call on whether you were too new to be expected to do much else, but at that point you were simply serving as a zombie vote, without having contributed anything to the game.

I applaud all of your recent uptick in activity, but your current status does not impact what you may have been previously.

Rereading the bill, I have a serious question...

Why does what a citizen did (American) years ago matter? If they're inactive, they should be removed, regardless.

Don't ask how the sausage is made so long as it tastes good in the end, eh? Wink

Obviously there are parts everyone can disagree with, but the intent was to find something that could pass a unanimous HAEV and a two-thirds Senate majority. Compromises are never all that pretty, but they can be effective.
