It's clear we need to come to a compromise on the voting requirements. My idea is simple, require 40 posts between elections, 10 must be in fantasy elections/government. Fully enforce all election laws that are posted in the voting booth.

However, get rid of the avatar/signature rule, since that serves no purpose, in my mind. We need elections to be decided by those who they will effect, but we don't need to be overzealous about it.

Also, define troll and inactive, to prevent the words being misused and abused.

What's wrong with our current rule of 25 posts per elections?  If anything, I'd imagine most would want that rule lessened, not made stronger.


I tabulated the results using the 25 post rule. Only 6 votes got eliminated, and it doesn't effect those who don't post in Atlasia. In all reality, 25 really isn't that much, as I said, only 6 people out of almost 100 would be affected, but the inactive problem is more than 6% of voters.

I have no problem with PMing people, and you can't stop that, you just have rule-following people being victimized. If you make it so inactives don't have a voice, you solve the problem.
