The Galactic Senate

Published on March 31, 2008 By DSep In Metaverse

Welcome all! The Galactic Senate will be our new meeting room to decide on metaverse matters! This means that this is it's sole function...for now. This may change. This is not a slander thread like the Galactic Council one. There is no tolerance for profanity and swearing.
The leader of the senate will be voted upon once every 3 weeks! When the leader's term is up, he may be elected as many times as the voters want...unlimited! You may vote for yourself!
If the leader of the Senate does something inappropriate on this thread, then he will be immediately ousted and his throat will be slit with a razor. Then we'll rip his heart out and "The Legions of Darkness" (The Raiders special forces) will feast on it!
To be elected, one must have at least 12 the most votes! You may only vote for 1 person each ELECTION!
All issues must be brought to attention by either a senator or overlord of an empire! A citizen may bring up an issue, but it will not be voted on until a senator or overlord formally proposes it. To be considered a senator or overlord, you must have at least one other person in your empire besides yourself and you must have senator status!
That's all there is to say....now let's get started!

AMENDMENTS:
1. Anyone who is a senator in more than 1 empire counts as 2 votes but NOT 2 people! If you wish to be counted as a "Super" Senator, you must send me a PM telling me which empires you're a senator in.
2. The leader of the 1st place empire counts as 3 votes!
3. Free beer for all in attendance, but not to excess.
4. To pass anything, it must receive at least 12 6 votes, but if the nos outweigh the yeses, then it does not get passed.

Current First Place Empire Leader: Kzinti Patriarch

CURRENT SENATE LEADER: DSep

NEXT ELECTION: Whenever I decide...but i'm a dictator, so i proably won't.

I wouldn't go so far as to call SethPenguin a troll. A tad unstable perhaps, but not as bad a a troll. At one point, it looked like he was successful in disconnecting himself from his avatar. I, for one, was hopeful that he was becoming one with the community. I suppose looks can be deceiving.

His decision to leave amounts to exactly zero loss. Flaming DSep on his way out was in incredibly poor taste and essentially burned what was left of the bridge that survived his first departure. DSep didn't deserve that kind of treatment. I won't be rolling a welcome mat out again if the lizard dude shows back up.

Still, you're right Silver. There are the rare few who play victim, make wild accusations and try to play us against each other. I'll try to ignore the bait, irritating as it is.

I lose no sleep to seth's departure. Everything was in fun and he got no more than he dished out. Geez, if the amount of taunting he recieved was excessive...then KP would have left the forums long ago. I don't think anyone receives as much shit from "us" as the Kzinti do.....

As for his remarks of a more personal nature, i can't ban him from this site, but i had my own litte immature victory, i banned him from the ToE site.

What the hell is that?(Everflyer) and also Everflyer, to become a "real" player come check us out at the MVL or are you scared?

Dangerous Dave, I don't think SethPenquin said or wrote anything too offensive towards you, only a couple of weak little rants, and welcome to the MVL.

Ahhhh... Our games take very little time to play. However, you would be playing with the best of the best. As long as you can take a little bit of friendly razzing once in a while.

I was referring to his rant asking the mods to ban you.

This shall be my last post, ever. Before i go, MODS i would like to report that DSep is taunting and harassing me in every forum i post a reply to or make and i would like you to ban him. This post is my last post i will ever put on this website. I will never return.

Unfortunately, (and not surprizingly), he's back.

I earlier gave my opinion that he's not so bad as to be classified as a troll. I retract my obvious error.

I can't belive this thread escaped me until now. Ohh all the quips i missed out on saying. Still, got some good laughs (especially with Motti changing votes and telling everyone to do the same). But i did manage to pass an hour at work and I learned what a troll is. My kids will be proud of me.

So how many votes have there been? I'd like to go back and place my votes in each one.

Sorry your council or senate or whatever didn't grow like you wanted DSEP, but i think this thread you started did a lot more that just solve some little Galactic issues.

Well put Silverbeacher. The maturity level on the "real" threads on this forum are what i like about this community. Anyone who asks a serious question gets a serious answer. Seldomly if ever is there any kind of hostility. But on the less serious threads it is great to see some of the more funnier comments.

It is sad and unfortunate that the younger guys who are growing up with the internet have learned to use their anonomitity to flame and harrass. You don't really see it here too much but as Silverbeacher said, its out there. I hope we can set the tone so it doesn't grow in here.

Very true! MV threads are immature but they're definately not serious and of course are going to have a lot of taunting. Nonetheless, people should be able to deal with it because as we've been saying all along (besides sethpenguin) everything said on these threads is "in character" and none of it's personal! Sethpenguin got pissed because in the little story i was writing, i wrote "hated geckodon empire!" what's up with that?
I always feel bad when people take offense at my posts, but like i say "Sarcasm is my first language!" people really need to learn to live with it on the MV. Look at how much Kzintzi receives, does he start ranting about how everyone else should be banned??

Look at my other posts....anything not in the MV section, not a single taunt or anything like that (besides sethpenguin's "they dissed us thread")but some people must always be childish.

LOL Nobody gives Kzinti a hard time. And to tell the truth RL is serious enough, I'm not about to be serious here unless it is a serious question,

And CaptainYar, all votes must come to me, unless of course to prefer Rosie Clones peeing on your shrubs and vehicles.
