Um... Tee? President Achro?
Anyone? Just me?
Ok.
Anyone? Just me?
Ok.
TeeArctic help ;w;
In the meantime, I'm trying to summarize some talking points:
Forum Immigration Policy - What's to be done regarding the influx of foreign denizens from foreign forums who are seemingly displaced?
Open Borders or Hard Borders - Should we accept the integration of various forums as a temporary/permanent refuge, or strictly keep foreigners outside and direct them to a relevant forum?
Duck v Penguin Campaigns - Should we allow this? To what point would it be considered destructive zealotry? How will this be better regulated in order to prevent potential pro-animal rioting?
Further points to come.

I would like to state my opinion on the matters that mister president had brought up.
Regarding the immigration policy, In my opinion, OT is a free land of democratic shitposting and anyone should be allowed to participate in it's activities.
However, in recent times it would seems that numerous individuals from other forums have been migrating to OT in search of a more quality forum board.
That in itself isn't really a bad thing, but the threads that they have made are not of the OT standards and in my opinion, those threads can potentially severely damage OT threads's quality.
I think it's fine to welcome new denizens. In fact, I think OT is the most welcoming land on Osu! forums!
But to preserve out heritage and quality, we must not let OT to be filled with threads of GD's, Help's, G&R's or any other forums's quality.
OT's threads are unique, that's why the neighboring forum - GD has always been envious of us.
Where else on the Osu! forums can we get leg threads, arm threads, banana threads, waifu threads, etc?
Where else on the Osu! forums can we elect our own president?
What we have here is unique and I would like to preserve that.
In short, I have no problems with new denizens. But I think we should strictly direct foreigners from other forums to their relevant forum.
About the duck vs penguin campaign.
For now, although there were some light verbal insults, the campaign have been organised with a civilized manner.
We can maybe even open a poll for denizens to vote for their favorite bird, and make said bird to be OT's national animal. (Like how the bald eagle is the US's national animal)
But if things escalate into something more serious, then I think we should have the OT Police forces to ensure the security of OT by having appropriate actions.

I think new denizens here is a good thing, but misguided ones often disturb the quality we try to achieve. I think creating a department solely for handling such cases would be a good step forward. Its purpose would be to notify the proper foreign authorities to retrieve the content and denizen to the proper place. The ones part of that department would need to be those with connections to the foreign authorities.
Regarding the duck vs penguin campaign, I think the duck party is mostly composed of radicalists aiming to inject its agendas into everyday denizen affairs. We have no need for such. The penguins in OT must live in peace.

H e h, yeah I'm actually spending too much time making an actual constitution that started as a joke and now I've come so far that I can't stop and I feel everlasting anxiety about releasing the draft in case I forgot some obvious parliamentary stuff so I may have been spending the last days reading through actual constitutions heh yeah
OT: In addition to the talking points already summarised by the President, which primarily consist of politcal matters, we also need to decide upon the following:
-Election process
-Denizen rights
-Economical foundation and plan
-Parliament structure
-Punishable acts
-Transportation and infrastructure policy
Amongst other things. I'll be back with all talking points when I've finished the draft
That's one yikes from me, dawg

Though this seems more fitting for abraker's ideology for quality, it's really quite good.
I don't think I have much else to say to it. But I'm willing to see what the rest of you guys think.
I have some questions about the constitution.
And can I get more details about what the seven representatives's duties are?
Will it be in Peppy coins or any other currency?
So will there be another election for said positions? If yes then when will it take place and who can enter?TeeArctic1 wrote:

@Tad Fibonacci there is a weakly established unit of exchange as of right now, be it peppy coins or OT bucks, but I can see in the future that a more centralized system might be implemented. Currently a lot of the infrastructure for that is not in place and further discussion will need to happen to determine how everything will work.
I. - What does "secret" mean in this context? That elections will be conducted by some group of people secret from many denizens of OT? Hell no. Denizens must know when elections take place and be able to respond to them.
I.b. - Keyword "may". Which means not only denizens can choose, and furthermore doesn't specify it being specifically denizens of OT.
II. - ok
III.a. - How is denizenship determined? Historically, the OT Royal Society of Quality has automatically registered denizens for denizenship as soon as they meet the activeness requirement for joining the OT Royal Society of Quality, "You must have been present in the land of OT for no less than sixty days and have participated in this land's activities enough to present a ten page history of your participation". We'll need to discuss this separately.

VI. - Is this a duplicate of one of the first few points? This point needs clarification of its purpose.
VII. - And if there is not enough willing denizens for 7?
IX. - The OT Royal Society would like a word on this one.

IX. - "for no more than one year" smh

I'll rework it, nevertheless, keep in mind that this is just the first part, not the entire constitution, and that a constitution is not law, that's for us to discuss afterwards.
Also I'll address some of the points you raised with suggestions.
I. Secret in this context means that your vote isn't open to the public, not that the election itself is secret, but maybe confidential would be a better word?
I.b will be changed to shall
II. Yeah, I agree, I can add that point, although I would question whether or how to qualify for denizenship should be stated in legislative rather than law.
III.b -IV: OTLaw is what should be our lawbook and more where politics come into place whereas the constitution functions more as statutes or guidelines for how the state works and so on. Seeing as we have no lawbook atm, this would be something to discuss later.
V.a Forgiveness clause suggestions are much appreciated. Maybe a plea is required?
V.b But that could change over time, if the constitution is going to remain over time, wouldn't it be better not to exclude specific forums just because of status today?
VI. This point has to do with the practical execution of an election, from how you can give your vote, what a voting bill should look like, how the results should be announced and so forth, which in itself contains so many details, I find it better to state those rules in a lawbook.
VII. The specific number could be changed, although I thought that 7 would be small enough, yet large enough that it could be feasible yet democratic. But by all means, could be lower.
IX. What do you suggest, that the royal society is allowed a tiebreaker in matters of parliament? That it's an independent organ? Please clarify.
X. Fair, it could be organised under subcategories so it's easier to navigate.
XI. It doesn't say for no more than one year, it says they're elected for one period, which doesn't mean they can't run again, rather that they have to run again to be re-elected.
XIII.a I think I'll clarify that and other purely structural points in other parts. I could include a section about meetings and so on here though.
I'm working on the judicial part of the constitution now which should solve some of the issues raised, but there's a reason why I like the input
I. - "wherein the representatives being voted for are voted through free elections for which each individual's vote shall be classified as confidential information."
V. - To be discussed
V.b - What qualifies as leaving OT for other sunforums?
IX. - Tiebreaker
XI. - The terms of representatives shall last one year

Fair changes, although I'm still on the fence regarding giving the royal society a tiebreaker, if there are no more comments on the legislative part, I'll move on to the other parts, then maybe reviewing when it all comes together

we need to have this going
why do governments always work so slowly?

Perhaps we need a multitude of congressional members, as opposed to only one guy working on the whole thing.
Well, this call for a recruiting thread then.Achromalia wrote:

As president, you should start one yourself.
Any ideas for immigration and border security. It seems to me like OT is very open against random attacks from outside. Does the government have enough money to spend on security equipments?
Sending this thread up, so the dead threads sink further......

Obviously there will be randoms incoming from time to time which cause a disturbance. I would better want to know what most of those people ended up doing after posting. I don't see many of them follow up, and I think that is the frustrating part.

We'll have to consider some things first, something we probably should've worked together on with the Presidential election and whatnot before any of it even happened.
For now, we'll just need a congressional group of sorts who can handle the law-keeping, governance, whatever. Qualified™ people.
We could formulate what this congressional committee is in a few different ways. At the moment, I'm thinking of something along the lines of a committee that will come with ideas and debate amongst one another on shit.
So how do we judge this? Is this recruitment, or is this another form of election?
I'm just throwing some ideas out here. I'm not sure of what the hell I'm doing so I might as well get feedback.

Yeah, I've sort of been busy last few days with real-life elections/conferences/politics and sickness, so haven't had much time to write this constitution, but having more help would certainly help.
At the moment, what I struggle with the most is writing down all the relevant points from actual constitutions and transforming them into points that would work for a forum like this one, as well as organising the constitution to be easy to navigate. I should have a lot of time the next two days though, so I should be good to work on it a lot then.
I think help would be best organised through either a discord group or a spreadsheet/document which can be edited and added to in real time so the entire thing is easier to work with.
