On deregistration

[windjammer]

If you deregister because you lost an election you’re a loser and a coward. Not only that but you’ll inevitably want to come back in a couple weeks or months anyway. I’ll introduce a bill in the new Senate to ban reregistration for at least six months if you choose to deregister. Live with the consequences of your own actions.

Yes I agree with that. People who do this kind of thing should have a forced cool down period , as they are causing so much stress to the game and to themselves

Let people deregister, I see no reason to force someone on the voter rolls against their will. A ban would be utterly pointless because deregistering does no harm to the game, the drama queens who rage quit because they lost an election are going to be drama queens, a dereg ban wouldn't solve that, it would just simply move their whining from the New Register Thread to its own dedicated thread.

And regarding the "What's wrong with just deleting campaign PMs?" point, I don't get why we should still go out of our way to inconvenience people with messages about a game they want nothing to do with. It's all just a hassle that could simply be solved by one post in the registration thread followed by two clicks on Peebs' mouse.

Let them deregister and not come back for 6 months!
