Message | This bill is a messy array of proposals, and we cannot vote yes nor no. You should consider making bills according to policy areas, etc. |
Date | 04:46:46, November 10, 2008 CET | From | Liberal Progressive Party | To | Debating the National Reform Bill |
Message | There is much that requires changing in Aldegar which is why we have many proposals in our bills. Obviously if you disagree with them you can vote no, or if you wish, abstain from voting. |
Date | 10:18:04, November 10, 2008 CET | From | Green Party of Aldegar | To | Debating the National Reform Bill |
Message | Would be better if you can be more considerate to other players. If we abstain then we risk visibility. If we vote yes/no some of our political positions will change even though we do not want them to. |
