| Message | Are we ready to do this yet. I mean seriously, 10 bills in the month of September is just far to many. I truly don't have roughly ten minutes per bill to read and react to. Which at this point would be something like 3 hours just for debate, let alone anything else with the rest of our country like news clippings and whatnot. |

| Message | We shall back this, although we wish to make it clear that our bills shall be up for the next year at least. |
| Date | 22:21:44, July 02, 2007 CET | From | United Republics Party | To | Debating the to many NMP and URP bills Act. |
| Message | first it's right after elections and second, i spelled out the conditions under which i suport a reduction, third if you want to push this bill at least change the number to 6 (1 every 2 months) |
| Date | 22:26:05, July 02, 2007 CET | From | Democrats | To | Debating the to many NMP and URP bills Act. |
| Message | Actually a better system would be to limit the number of Bills that can be stored, so as to ensure that Bills can't be rushed all at once, but active parties can still propose Bills regularly. |
| Date | 01:08:10, July 03, 2007 CET | From | Free Lodamun | To | Debating the to many NMP and URP bills Act. |
| Message | As long as this is in the discussion phase, please add a proposal so only 10 bills are stored. |
| Date | 01:12:07, July 03, 2007 CET | From | The Unified Lodamun Party | To | Debating the to many NMP and URP bills Act. |
| Message | How can you do that? Is that under the quota that any party can have, which is 15 presently? |
| Date | 01:16:37, July 03, 2007 CET | From | Free Lodamun | To | Debating the to many NMP and URP bills Act. |
| Message | It is the next one in line. go back to where you found this originally. Or, scroll down until you see a 15. |
| Date | 01:40:59, July 03, 2007 CET | From | Radical Nationalist Party | To | Debating the to many NMP and URP bills Act. |
| Message | Maybe 6 would be best, also changing the number we can accumilate would be better aswell so we dont have people just saving them all to just flood us with bills. |
| Date | 04:49:19, July 04, 2007 CET | From | Independent Republican Party | To | Debating the to many NMP and URP bills Act. |
| Message | Agreed. We don't have time to adequately debate bills if we're voting on 10-15 per day. |
