Bill: Serious Problem
Details
Submitted by[?]: 2ème PPPP
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill is a resolution. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: March 2453
Description[?]:
Anyone notice how the vast majority of recent bills have failed? Well it's because both the KCP and PDC didn't vote on any of them! When you go to their usernames it says they've been on recently, but seriously what's the problem?
(Vote no so we get this out of the bills being debated.) |

From | 2ème PPPP | To | Debating the Serious Problem | Message | Sure. But the least they could do is take a few seconds to vote... |

From | Union Pour une Nation Homosexuelle | To | Debating the Serious Problem | Message | ooc: it is irritating when people do not vote; but do remain active. But their visibility will suffer, which means more seats up for grabs in the long term. I will try to find out what is up with KCP; but unless i miss my guess he has just started uni. |

From | 2ème PPPP | To | Debating the Serious Problem | Message | Ah that explains it. He is about that age. Fortunately eleventh grade gives me quite a bit of spare time. |

From | Union Hosienne-Démocrate (UHD) | To | Debating the Serious Problem | Message | Eleventh grade gives you quite a bit of spare time? No wonder the American youth have no work ethic. I'm going to tell every teacher I know to pile on the work; enough of this coddling crap! |

From | 2ème PPPP | To | Debating the Serious Problem | Message | Lol. I am indeed from the US, or Alaska more specifically.
UPFF person: the USA has one of the highest homework rates in the world. Studies show that more homework is not at all correlated with more learning and success. And with me it's not really that they aren't giving me enough; it's just not that difficult. |

From | Partie Patriotique de Kanjor | To | Debating the Serious Problem | Message | ooc; it might be better to vote no to this and other bills being archived as it won't clutter up yje bills passed list, also to put 'archive' or something similar in the title. |

From | Union Hosienne-Démocrate (UHD) | To | Debating the Serious Problem | Message | OOC: PPPP; I'm from the US. More homework may not mean more learning or success; but I do have to admit that no matter what, I have students who never do their homework, whether it is a lot of work or very little.
So, in other words, we need to make school harder? I've been advocating that for years. Less work that takes longer to do sounds better than a lot of work that takes a few minutes. |

From | 2ème PPPP | To | Debating the Serious Problem | Message | Wait, you're a teacher? Ok, well I'm in two AP classes along with other advanced classes this year whose teachers give me plenty of things to work on. If I can do the work that they give me easily, that doesn't mean that they aren't making it hard enough or not giving enough. School does not have to be difficult for students to learn from it. In fact it's a far better idea to make school more enjoyable and easier for kids who don't do as well with homework as me. We need to keep kids in school instead of thinking that we need to push them harder. A lot more learning can happen when the teacher isn't being a tyrant. |

Random fact: Moderation will not accept Cultural Protocol updates which introduce, on a significant scale, cultures which are likely to be insufficiently accessible to players. In particular, for all significant cultures in Particracy, it should be easy for players to access and use online resources to assist with language translation and the generation of character names. Moderation reserves the right to amend Cultural Protocols which are deemed to have introduced significant cultures that are not sufficiently accessible and which are not being actively role-played with. |
