| Message | Even though we support the military reforms, we do not support some of the other articles. We will vote against. OOC: Same advice I always give. In order to make it easier for the established parties to vote and in order to make your bills more sucessful, please include only one proposal per bill. If it is on the same subject such a military, it'd be fine if you included more than one but please do not combine different subjects in one bill because we will agree with some but not with other like it just happened here. Welcome to Lodamun! |
