| Message | We are neutral. OOC: Please don't try to start a new census, I beg you, we stopped doing them because no one will agree. |

| Message | OOC: Not starting a new one. Just a regular "census" in the background. By the way, I didn't mind the census we did. If we just set a uniform rules (like Rildanor Accord), where everyone has to follow, it would work better. |

| Message | OOC: No one wanted to follow the RP of Sekowo, for instance realistically Sekowo has no single religion that holds a majority, though Christianity would hold a plurality of about 40%. Also it seems that several don't want to recognize homosexuality as genetic. |

| Message | OOC: That's where a set of guidelines would be done. As soon as people agree to it, then if they abstain or ignore the endorsed census act, their percentage does not count in the official census. If they want their voice heard, they would have to come up within reason. As well, no one is allowed to contest the other person's numbers. This is something you might not like when it comes to the sexuality vote because that's a sensitive topic. People might give 0% to certain sexuality groups which should be their right. To simplify that issue, we don't include topics like sexuality because of differences of opinion. |

| Message | [[Actually the REAL reason we haven't continued the censuses is because I am busy with grad school and been too lazy to undertake a 2nd census. Expect this to change after the semester ends.]] |
