The Problem With the WA

The WA is a great thing, it really is. It is the worlds governing body, yet you don't have to join it. Its goal is simply peace.(correct me if I'm wrong for that is the point of this whole essay). And it can work. Can.

I have recently noticed that there is a major problem in the WA. Actually, a few major problems. I reviewed the problems, and created a proposal to fix them. For those interested, it is called "The Rebuilding of the WA". However, I have also checked over rules for submitting proposals, and I fear that mine shall be deleted, even if it gains sufficient support to be made into a resolution. If it is, then it shall be final proof that the WA has become corrupt and, in my opinion, useless.

I shall continues t write the essay in parts. Same topic of course. Please alert me if you notice anything that you find to be untrue or contradictory.

I have assigned several scrotum-seeking attack weasels to check and recheck your facts and assertions for error. Should they find flaws with your position, they will express their disappointment with you as only they know how.

That was... mildly disturbing. Please be serious about this subject, I'm kinda touchy on it. And no more weasels, please.

You know nothing about game mechanics. Even if it did get passed, nothing would happen. It would have to be coded into the game, which is hard and will take time.

I am every bit as serious on this subject as I am on every subject in the General Forum. You may find that the proper forum would be more suitable to a rational dialogue, but this is not it.

As such, I claim this thread in the name of irrationality, madness, humor and fun.

Tacos and beer will be provided as refreshments.

It's just LG. He's sometimes harmless.

As for your topic, you're in the wrong forum. I have no idea where it should be redirected, but you, like Alice, have passed through the looking glass. To that, I warn you:

I had no clue what forum to put this topic in, i just wanted to get it out there. If a mod could possibly move it to the proper forum, I would be very appreciative. I'll publish Part 2 as soon as this thing lands in the right place.

Post your request in moderation or they'll never see it.

is it just me or does every proposal get like a thousand votes no matter what it is?

I'd like to test this by putting forward a proposal to make NAMBLA compulsory in membership (with increased defense budgets all round just in case people read it)

While you're at it, compulsory worship of Rush Limbaugh, the enshrinement of Gus Hall as the Second Coming of Jesus, and the institution of dhimmi taxes.

Types Of Violations

* Game Mechanics

Game Mechanics violations are attempts to change how the WA works. Generally, these are Proposals that should be threads in Technical. Anything that requires and adjustment to how the game does things, or requires a change of code falls into this category.

Which, of course, you'd have known had you read the sticky outlining what is and is not a proper proposal.

Towed to Technical.

Pshaw!

Pay no attention to this madman. I'm just a silly mud dweller and you can all take comfort in the fact that I will not disturb your carefully held views on anything.

Underestimate me. :)

Rebuilding of the WA

A resolution to establish administrative parameters.


Category: Bookkeeping


Effect: Sweeping


Proposed by: Dectubech

Description: Recognizing that the WA is an International governing body that wants peace for all of Nation States.

Understanding that certain rules and restrictions apply when submitting new proposals.

Recognizing that some of these rules and restrictions prevent the WA from achieving its goal.

The WA, since its rise on April First, two thousand and eight, has been doing its best to take the place of its predecessor. However, the WA has since grown corrupt and useless. Its ultimate goal is complete peace, yet no proposals can deal with nations outside of the WA. How can we help to bring about change in the world if we can do nothing to help those outside our government? The WA is also not aloud to have an army or any weapons specific to the federal government. How can it enforce its resolutions if no one will follow them? How can it protect its members if they have no strength to do so? How can it survive if WA haters decide to pick off WA nations one by one? The answer is simple: In the event of any f these situations, the WA would be helpless and useless.

The current laws, ALL laws of the WA will be struck out and rendered null and void. New responsibilities, restrictions, and powers shall be granted to the WA or members of the WA. The WA will have the power to effect those not in the WA, simply through defense and relief aid. The WA shall be reconstructed, its corruption purged, and set back on the path to peace.

Save the WA now, before its too late. Sometimes, in order to create, we must destroy, and now is the time for the destruction. When a phoenix burns it comes back stronger than ever. We shall be that phoenix! We shall fall, only to return more powerful, organized, and determined. We shall spread our wings, and envelop the world. We shall spread our message of peace, and we will hold the world together, whatever it takes. We are the World Assembly. We are the bringers of peace. We shall not falter in our quest! Let light shine upon us once more!

Not to mention the fact that the Bookkeeping category is not currently a valid one, it's attempt to repeal multiple resolutions at once, and it's attempting to alter the rules of the game.
