No Order Paper at that link - thx

[Lüc da Schir]

My mistake! The link is fixed now. I'm taking advantage of this post to report two things I put in the order paper, for the benefit of those who might not want to read it:

Senators have been given advance notice of a resolution that will be presented this month by Senator da Schir of Benito. It is advised that Senators check the Senate’s working threads to debate on the resolution when it is presented.

Senators are advised to vote on the Senate’s main thread [this one] or on the Database. Voting on the Cosa’s thread leads to confusion and is discouraged. The Mençei would like to remind the Senate that Senators do not need to vote on Confidence matters.

This is where we vote right?

3RZ20 - The Communication with the People Bill
Contra. Unfettered Data Collection is a modern issue that the Talossan Database will soon have to tangle with. We don't need more collection, we need better personal communication.

53RZ21 - The Talossa is Not Wittenberg Act
Contra. Wait, Talossa is more than a message board? Then why is this my ONLY contact with Talossan's other than the King, and an occasional meeting with an old friend? It only ceases to be real when we believe that eh?

53RZ22 - The Ain’t It Fun Act
Contra. The title is misleading though, this is fun.

53RZ23 - The Spreading the Word Act
Interesting. Contra.

GV, Fiôvâ

I echo the Mencéi's word re voting on the Cosâ thread. Don't do it.

About a year or so ago, I voted accidentally on that month's Cosâ thread and was almost noted as not voting for that month.

[Ian Plätschisch]

Për on all bills.

RZ20 per
RZ21 contra: I think this will only make it harder for people to immigrate in our country. Using another medium outside Wittenberg is a serious hurdle to take, especially considering the fact that not all (prospective) citizens want to have their real life identity known. Becoming a citizen then requires somebody to make a fake account on another medium, and having a citizen contact him or her on it. A hassle.

To address the Senator from Cezembre’s concern, there are multiple dots that allow for essentially anonymous accounts or no account at all (like Chatzy)
