I'll make this short and sweet. ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) I think it would be a cool idea. Just have a few people as Senetors. . . Your input?

He means like a sort of council where people sit in on decision making, talk about things etc. However, I see it serving no purpose, because at the end of the day, I and the senior staff will have the final say on what happens here, the forum isn't a complete democracy.
If people want to make suggestions or talk to me about an issue, then anyone can do that. Also with just a few people, it doesn't make up a good representation.

I love a dictator. <3 It warms my icy heart to see someone use their absolute power. ...No, really.

I find it pointless. We want suggestions from all the members (thus we have this board) not just a select few representing all of the members.
Too much like democracy, which is a form of government that doesn't work very well online. In an online community, dictatorship often works better. That is pretty much what we have at SSD, though we do have quite a bit of input from the members on how things are to be run.

*sigh* this is always a suggestion made by power hungry members who just want more status in the forum to make decisions and don't fight me on this. I remember when I was grey and this was suggested before, I was like 'hell yeah, lets do it!'. I wanted to be a part of it, because I wanted to input into the community. But that's what this board is for. You have an idea? If it's any good and doesn't get locked then the higher staff will discuss of it. If you are fit to make desicions on this board then you must be good at suggesting, and I haven't seen many good, inovative suggestions really for a senate to discuss, I'm afraid I'm against it.

Yeah, I bet alot of people think the only reason I am suggesting this is because I want to be a Senetor here at SSD. But really, it was just a plain suggestion, no strings attacthed. And I think it has been declined. (Not that I didn't know everyone would have something against it. Just suggesting something here is harder than most people think. Just for it to be accepted as a decent idea, and the higher staff actually seriously disscuss it. Well let's say it has to be well thought out, and obviously my post was not thought out.) Sorry for my ramblings. And I respect your answers. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) igi.

I provide enough corruption for an entire government ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) . No need for a senate trying to do my job. In the end, that's what this board is for. Members give ideas and other member and staff comment on it. If it's liked, we discuss it more.

I merely gave confirmation.
