Judicial Discussion: Conviction Records

Yes, but also think about this.... When I took over (Term 3) We were entering the indust ages.... Were entering them now in what? Term 5? 2 entire months later.... Yes we are on a higher diffuculty, but that should not effect us that much. Unless of course.... if we are making a bunch of stupid choice's which is slowing us down so far(which I don't think we are)
 
But what does any of that have to do with conviction records? Are we going slowly because we don't have them? Is our meagre pace as good as it is only because there is no conviction record?

No.... the ton of PI's are slowing us down.... Each time we have a PI attention is diverted to them instead of the other threads.

The convection records are just plain stupid. This is a GAME almost all PI's thus far has been a mistake or the person was honest enough to report there wrong-doing. Your telling me that you want to ruin a persons chance for re-election just because they made a single mistake? Most.... Correction.... ALL of the people who has been PIed are valued members of the demogame.... All being excellent leaders/president/govonors. It'll just be stupid to take out are best members just because they made a single mistake.... It'll hurt are country both on this forum and in the game.
 
You have not made any point that connects the speed of the game to a record of convictions.

If somebody has made an honest mistake and gets a warning then the record would show they received a warning. If they blew it and were suspended then it shows they were suspended. The only thing that will ruin a person's chance for reelection is if they mess up bad. In that case it most certainly should affect their chance for reelection.

Even a warning will effect there chances. Also this is to much targeting the people who did get suspended or anything else major. This is not a real nation. There is alittle under 20 of us. We don't need a conviction record. Right now.... as far as I can see.... this is just an attempt to help those who has not been PIed and to injury those who has.
 
There are a little over 30 of us. Consistently. Some are more vocal than others.

This is not an attempt to injure anybody. It is to keep a record of PI's and their results. If you get PI'd then, hey, guess what? You really did get PI'd. If you get sentenced then, you know what? You have a record. That's the way it is. Don't break the rules and you won't have a problem.
 
I think we should have a public thread. It would make it easy to see if some people has a big problem following rules, and if a PI comes up with an accusision that is similar to an earlier PI, we could look at the earlier one and thus having a fairer PI, trial and sentencing.

And since you talk so much about this thread effecting peoples chances of reelection; As an example, I know both Chieftess and Fionn are good leaders who has done a lot for the demogame. Even though they have done some errors, they will still get my vote as I know they are good leaders who has probably learned of their mistakes.

On the other hand, if someone would commit the same crime over and over again, that would effect their chances of getting my vote...
 
I don't think we need this, for the simple reason that we have not really concerned ourselves with prior conduct of a person.

Have we ever asked somebody, in an election, if they have been convicted of a PI? No.

The point was raised that we could see who was continually violating the rules under this proposal. Well, if someone has multiple PI's against them, for different violations, I'm going to remember that. I'm probably going to remind people of that if I think that person won't change their ways.

We are a community of friends, and friends occasionally have to remind friends that their behavior is out of bounds. Once that's done, all is forgiven, and usually forgotten. Let's try to be like that.
