I object to that. That gives the Delegate far too much power.

Agreed. That turns the conversation over to throwing out compromises in order to win, while I believe your idea only sacrifices the point of the bill itself.

I don't understand why we'd give that responsibility to the delegate. Giving the person who has the power to kick people the ability to kick whoever they want seems to be a tad dangerous.

I wanted to have it where they'd only be ejected if they fail to make three consecutive Censuses, but you felt it was too lenient, and now I strip that down, you find it too drastic.

Are we at least fine with the removing of the citizenship mask?

Here is another version of this proposal, this time only thing that is removed is citizenship masking and a record of all non-citizen nations be kept.[1]

Quote:
 
Regulating Activity Directive
Author: Likako A. Nehio
Proposed: May 11th, 2013


Article I. The Census
Section I. Establishing the Census
  1. The Lord Chancellor, or an appointed Cabinet member, shall conduct a Census of active citizens and nations in New Sorvun.
    1. A Census must be conducted at a minimum of once every month.
    2. The citizens of New Sorvun must be given seven days notice of an upcoming Census. This notice must be sent to all nations in New Sorvun jurisdiction in the form of telegrams.
    3. The Census must remain open for five days
      1. Should an individual be unable to participate in the Census at the given time, he must notify the Lord Chancellor or the Delegate of New Sorvun through telegram or private message


Section II. Census Procedure

    1. Each nation must indicate whether it is a citizen or an ambassador
    2. Each nation must indicate all puppets it has in New Sorvun Jurisdiction
    3. Each nation can submit their Census form either in the appropriate section of the forum, or in a telegram to the Delegate of New Sorvun

    4. All nations that are not indicated on the Census form will be ejected from New Sorvun jurisdiction. catalogued by the Delegate, and a copy of this list shall be delivered to the Lord Chancellor.
    5. Only ambassadors from regions with established embassies, or those who are in the process of establishing an embassy with New Sorvun, or an official ally are allowed to remain in New Sorvun Jurisdiction
      1. An Official ally is a region that holds an active Treaty of Alliance with New Sorvun or is a region that shares membership in an inter-regional organization alongside New Sorvun

  2. New Sorvun Jurisdiction includes the following regions:
    • New Sorvun
    • New Sorvun Republic
    • Sorvun
    • Sorvun II

Section III. Retaining Citizenship
  1. For a citizen to retain citizenship he must:
    1. Maintain at least one nation in New Sorvun Jurisdiction
    2. Participate in the Census as defined in Article I. Section II
  2. Should a citizen fail to follow the procedure, citizenship masking shall be removed from said individual in all forums under the jurisdiction of New Sorvun, along with any offices he may hold at the time of revocation.
  3. To regain citizenship, the revokee must follow the standard procedure for gaining citizenship..

Article II. Multiple Accounts and Fraud

Section I. Defining Multiple Accounts
  1. Possessing Multiple Accounts is defined as two or more forum accounts that have identical or near-identical IP addresses
  2. Account Fraud is defined as one individual possessing two citizen accounts in New Sorvun.
  3. Voter Fraud is defined as one individual utilizing multiple accounts to influence an election ballot, legislation vote, judicial ruling or any process in New Sorvun jurisdiction that involves a vote of some kind.
  4. Corruption is defined as one individual utilizing multiple accounts to hold multiple positions in New Sorvun government.

Section II. Punishment for Possession of Multiple Accounts and Fraud.
  1. Possession of Multiple Accounts:
    • First Offense: The offender, if found guilty, must choose which account to keep and the other accounts shall be deleted from the forums.
    • Second Offense: The offender, if found guilty, shall have all accounts banned from New Sorvun for two weeks (14 days)
    • Third Offense: The offender, if found guilty, shall have all accounts banned from New Sorvun and related nations ejected and banned from New Sorvun Jurisdiction for one month (30 days)
    • Further Offense: The offender, if found guilty, shall have all accounts banned from New Sorvun and related nations ejected and banned from New Sorvun Jurisdiction indefinitely.

  2. Account Fraud:
    • First Offense: The offender, if found guilty, must delete all but one account within two weeks of conviction
      1. If the offender does not comply, the offender will be banned from New Sorvun and all related nations ejected and banned from New Sorvun Jurisdiction for two weeks (14 days)

    • Second Offense: The offender, if found guilty, is banned from New Sorvun and all related nations ejected and banned from New Sorvun Jurisdiction for one month (30) days
    • Third Offense: The offender, if found guilty, is banned from New Sorvun and all related nations ejected and banned from New Sorvun Jurisdiction for six months (180) days.
    • Further Offense: The offender, if found guilty, is banned from New Sorvun and all related nations ejected and banned from New Sorvun Jurisdiction indefinitely.

  3. Voter Fraud:
    • First Offense: The offender, if found guilty, is banned from New Sorvun and all related nations ejected and banned from New Sorvun Jurisdiction for one month (30 days).
    • Second Offense: The offender, if found guilty, is banned from New Sorvun and all related nations ejected and banned from New Sorvun Jurisdiction for six months (180 days).
    • Third Offense: The offender, if found guilty, is banned from New Sorvun and all related nations ejected and banned from New Sorvun Jurisdiction indefinitely.

  4. Corruption: The offender, if found guilty, is banned from New Sorvun and all related nations ejected and banned from New Sorvun Jurisdiction for three months (90 days) and is barred from holding any office in New Sorvun for an additional three months (90 days) after the ban is lifted.
  5. Each additional account counts as an additional charge, and the World Court has discretion if multiple charges are served concurrently or consecutively. Therefore, even if the offender was charged with one of these criminal charges for the first time with multiple counts it accumulates towards the number of offenses and punishment must be dealt accordingly
  6. Possession of Multiple Accounts is a misdemeanor for the first offense, beyond the first offense it is a felony charge and therefore an impeachable offense.
  7. Account Fraud, Voter Fraud, and Corruption are all felonies and therefore are an impeachable offense. If an impeachment is called for, the punishment for being impeached is dealt in addition to whatever punishment for these criminal acts has been dealt.

Article III. Active Participation

Section I. Defining Active
  1. A citizen shall be considered active if at least one of these conditions is met:
    • A minimum of one post on either the New Sorvun forums or Regional Message Board a week (7 days)
      1. Posts in spam areas do not count toward this minimum

    • Voting in the League of Nations, at least once per month, where possible.
    • Participating in a mission as a member of the New Sorvun military at least once per month.
    • Send at least 50 recruitment messages on behalf of New Sorvun once per month.
    • Send updates or make posts in New Sorvun's embassies as an ambassador once per month or participate on New Sorvun's behalf in any inter-regional organizations
      1. This condition alone will not be considered active, an additional condition must be met alongside this condition in order to be considered active.

Section II. Population and Good Standing.

  1. The population of New Sorvun is the number of active citizens, and this number shall be used when determining processes, such as the number of Judicators, that depend on the number of active citizens.
  2. Good Standing is defined as an active citizen that has not been convicted of a felony for at least three months


Hopefully this version is to everyone's liking.

Green = additions

Is there something we can do to ensure that prior notification on an RL basis lets someone keep citizenship? I'd hate to go camping or something and have my citizenship (then all my offices) revoked. Perhaps we can have a check-in thread for citizens of good standing.

Yes it has already stated in the proposal that if the Delegate or Lord Chancellor is notified beforehand by the individual if he/she will be absent, that individual will be able to submit their form early.

If there are no more issues at hand, the latest proposal may be moved to an up-or-down vote at any time. Just give me the all-important signal.
