I'm trying to submit the following proposal, but I keep getting an error that my username is inavlid:


Resolution Name: *Hic*
Category: Social Justice (A resolution to reduce income inequality and increase basic welfare.)
Strength: Mild

RECALLING NSUN Resolution #36, Freedom Of Humor,

NOTING various news reports of binge drinking among college students,

RECALLING the time when drugs were the big bugbrear among PC campus totalitarians,

DISAVOWING alleged incidents of prayers to the Porcelain Gods,

BE IT RESOLVED by the NS UN that no one shall be drunker than me!

Well I'm not sure about the error, but read this:

3. Joke Proposals
Every now and then someone decides that making a pun about something (usually "The Right to Arm Bears" or "The Right to Bare Arms") would be clever. Beyond the fact that these jokes have appeared at least 25 times each in the proposal queue, the fact that they're not serious proposals will have them deleted.

This proposal is going to be deleted, and may result in your ejection from the UN.

It won't be deleted, or result in my ejection from the UN, for the simple reason that I COULDN'T SUBMIT IT!

And really, one might hope that referencing the Freedom Of Humor resolution in the proposal would prevent ejection.

And that's exactly why I said so, so that you wouldn't submit it. :)

No, but seriously. Any idea why I was getting a name error?

Nope. Must have been Jolt being fractious.
