Both my proposals were deleted- why?

Both my polygamy and community property proposals were deleted. I don't see how they could have violated any rules.

Could you post both proposals here? That might clear it up a bit.

Be sure to include the category and strength / effect you submitted it under. An awful lot of proposals get deleted because they are miscategorized.

No, because they were DELETED! They're gone! As far as I could tell, it was hard to find a right category, so I think I stuck them with human rights, because they fit civil liberties and property rights best, in my view.

Oops, I used the wrong nation to respond. Damoclea and New Tarentum, same founder, different nations.

Many proposal authors create their proposals in a word processor and save them to their own computer. Even successful proposals rarely get approved the first time through, so it's generally good advice. It also gives you the chance to run a spelling and grammar checker on your proposal, an essential step.

For the record, I was not the mod who handled the deletion, (it takes a Game Mod), but I'm pretty sure that the game doesn't record failed or deleted proposals. Unless you kept a copy, there's not much we can tell you about it.

For the record, I am not the Moderator who deleted these proposals.

Correct. The game will only record the titles of proposals deleted by Moderators and will not record anything about proposals that fail to reach quorum.
