The Asulon Improvement Committee

[CountJuno88 230]

Greetings Asulon! In order to answer the call of the player base for more representation in matters of the server, we are beginning a new experimental committee. I present to you the Asulon Improvement Committee.

The Asulon Improvement Committee shall be charged with the task of representing the needs of the player base of the Lord of the Craft role-playing server in a professional manner to the administration and staff of the aforementioned server. The Committee shall be composed of a total of eight (8) members. Four (4) of these members shall be selected by the Administration/Staff of the server while the other four (4) members shall be elected by means of a majority vote by the player base of Lord of the Craft.

Eligibility Requirements

In order to qualify for a nomination to the committee, the nominee must be an active player on the server for two (2) months or more, the nominee cannot have received any type of a ban (server, teamspeak, or forum) or have received any major disciplinary action for one (1) month or more, and the nominee must have a sincere desire to represent the needs of the players in a productive manner to the staff of Lord of the Craft.

Election Process

For the four (4) players appointed by the administration, a list of nominees will first be composed by the Global Moderators and the Game Masters. This list shall then be submitted to the Administrative staff who will then appoint four (4) players from the list to serve as committee members for the prescribed term.

In order to run for one of the four (4) committee members’ positions voted upon by the player base, a player must first be nominated by any member of the player base. A player cannot nominate themselves. There is no limit on the amount of nominee’s, but there are restrictions on who may be nominated as described above. A total of five (5) days shall be the length of time for the nomination period. Once nominations are closed, a poll will be made on the forums of all the nominee’s names and the player’s shall be allowed to vote. The voting period shall be two (2) days. At the end of the voting period, the four players with the highest vote counts shall be granted the position of committee member.

Term of Service

Committee members, upon elections, will serve a term of two months. Their are no restrictions, however, on how many times a player can serve on the committee as long as he or she receives the necessary votes and still meets the Eligibility Requirements. A committee member is allowed to resign from the committee if he or she feel that it is necessary. In this case, the person with the next highest vote count shall be promoted to the empty position. A committee member can also be dismissed from the committee if he or she is found to have broken any of the server, forum, or teamspeak rules. This too will result in the player with the next highest vote count to be promoted to the dismissed committee members chair.

Expectations of the Asulon Improvement Committee Members

The members of the Committee shall be expected to meet regularly to discuss the needs and concerns of the player base. The form of communication to be utilized by the Council shall be Skype. A Teamspeak Group shall also be made where the Council can meet and possibly speak with any player’s who may have any concerns. The preferred method of communication with the committee shall be a special sub-forum where players can post their concerns for the Committee to review and consider. Once a week, the committee will be required to hold one official meeting with the Lord of the Craft staff to discuss any concerns that they wish to be addressed. The chat logs of these meetings will be compiled after the meeting and released on the forums for the player base to review. The committee shall be headed by one member of the Lord of the Craft staff to serve as an official liaison between the staff and the committee.

~At this time, I am declaring the first round of nominations open. Since this is the first time, the nomination period shall be extended from its normal 5 day period and shall come to a close on Friday, February 3, at midnight CST at which point the voting process shall begin and end on Sunday, February 5, at midnight CST. Nominations only can be made on this post, but must be made with the consent of the person being nominated. You may include a brief reason as to why you are nominating a certain player. All other posts shall be deleted. Please check the post before posting a nominee to avoid double nominations.

Alright current nominees. I need to be made aware as to whether or not you have actually accepted your nomination. If you have been nominated, I need you to send me a private message stating the following:

1. Whether or not you accept or deny your nomination.

2. State why you are serious about your nomination to the Asulon Improvement Committee.

This data will allow me to know who is serious about running and who is not. Those who do not submit this information will not be put on the ballot. The staff needs to know that the player's who have chosen to accept their nomination are serious about this job. I look forward to the nominee's replies.
