Parliament | Suggestions / Discussion on Issues With /fly

« on: 4 January 2024, 03:28:51 PM »

Hi all, in senate we've been considering different kinds of legislation to fix problems with /fly. However, since this interferes with internal staff rules, legislation can only pass through parliament. So, I hope that we can raise discussion surrounding these issues and people can give their own opinions, solutions, and details they'd like to see in a parliament bill.

So far there have been two ideas on how to resolve two different issues - staff favouritism/discrimination concerning /fly access, and their own hypocrisy by using fly for personal builds but not allowing it to players.

The first idea is to solve staff favouritism and discrimination against players by regulating the conditions in which a player can reasonably be given fly. This means that fly will be given out to any builds that needs it, and optionally: fly could no longer be given out for simple builds. This proposal is given so that staff cannot deny players fly in a reasonable request because of personal feelings, but they also may not be able to show favouritism by giving players fly when they don't need it. Obviously, if a player 'misuses' fly, they can be cut off from it.

The second idea is to remove staff advantages and hypocrisy concerning their own access to /fly (and possibly creative) for when they use it for their personal builds, but do not give it to players.

Since staff are likely to have a biased view upon changes to these issues, because it limits their power/decision-making, I would hope that their input and approval would not be based on personal preference but on practicality. Hopefully staff will maintain an impartial outlook based only on feasibility, the wellbeing of the server, and public support.

I welcome any disagreements, agreements, and new ideas.

Parliament | Suggestions / Parliament Vote 39: Percentage of People AFKing/Sleeping to Skip Night

« on: 4 January 2024, 02:41:39 PM »

Parliament Vote 39

-----------------------------------

Set minimum participation levels required to skip nighttime in game.

Following the upcoming updates to the server, it will be possible to set a specific minimum percentage of players necessary to participate in order to skip a night cycle. Currently that requires all online players (excluding staff) to either sleep or /afk. The following bill proposes to change that percentage, as determined by vote of the VC Parliament.

The Senate proposes that the following question be presented to the VC Parliament for determination:

Following the update, what minimum percentage of online players (excluding staff) need to /afk or sleep to skip nighttime?

a. 1%,
b. 25%,
c. 50%,
d. 51%,
e. 75%,
f. 100%.

This vote is proposed as an approval vote, and the majority answer will be enacted following the server update. If there is a tie, the Senate may propose a subsequent “runoff” vote but the current 100% requirement will continue until modified by vote of Parliament.

Wording proposed by Senator Dallas

"Each election will last 48 hours, if not all the senators have voted within this time or if there is a tie, another election will be called after the conclusion of the preceding one. Elections may happen infinitely until a speaker is chosen, however each individual election must be open for the full 48 hours, then be closed for another election to occur."

"Each election will last 48 hours, however if all senators have voted, the election may be ended early. If not all the senators have voted within this time or if there is a tie, another election will be called after the conclusion of the preceding one. There can only be 1 election at any given time."

Brief summary of what happened:
Grumble put a hole in the wall of Salish's house and also killed all of his dogs. Akomine already went over the dog killing with Grumble and Salish, and said that he had to repay Salish, but there was never any compensation. (I'm filling out this for Salish because he couldn't register for some reason)
