Message | You also want to extend the term of office? That is making the country less democratic - it would be worse than the times of the Vanguard! |

Message | It is not the point , 2 years isn't enough to allow anyone to serve his country i think 4 years is very democratic OOC: All democratic countries has 4 years term like U.S |
Date | 13:13:52, January 16, 2013 CET | From | Freedom and Democracy Party | To | Debating the Constitutional Amendments For 3427 |
Message | I still don't support your proposals. The only thing you've changed is the motto. I'd support 3 years, but thats the maximum. General Secretary and General Chancellor are plain and boring. Badara is an Arab/Muslim themed country and your proposals do not relate to that at all. House of Badaran Representatives, again, is plain and boring, and too American. 520 makes no sense either. More seats doesn't mean more democracy, and why 520 and not 500? |

Message | Making it an elective Emirate would be a lot more interesting. I'm not suggesting an hereditary monarchy I'm suggesting an elective one based on the UAE. |

Message | OOC: Huzzah! President. Prime Minister. House of Representatives. The United Badaran States? The long awaited Reign of Boredom finally seizes control of Badara. Behold, the respect for other players, as within a week of reactivating, this newest Al'Democraty variation seeks to change the titles of even Al-e-Ahmad City. Really, for historical purposes you cannot leave the name of a single city? The Vanguards ruled for nearly 100 years. I realize you didn't like my party, but it's a bummer to see everything erased. |
Date | 21:39:21, January 16, 2013 CET | From | Ḥizb al-Lībirālī al-Qafuri | To | Debating the Constitutional Amendments For 3427 |
Message | Why would a democratic party keep such profoundly anti-democratic names and titles. At least their showing individuality by using arabic names. If we are going to RP, they may as well keep it realistic. |
Date | 00:02:43, January 17, 2013 CET | From | Al Jabha al-Queranzīa Badariyā | To | Debating the Constitutional Amendments For 3427 |
Message | OOC: Hello Jalal , I don't know why i am supposed to keep a name of an ex-leader on a city which has a more beautiful name Dar Al Badara and realistic . I don't believe that a leader name the cities after his name it is ridiculous ! |
Date | 00:31:15, January 17, 2013 CET | From | Hizb Gazeratan Badaraiyah Al-Tala'īy | To | Debating the Constitutional Amendments For 3427 |
Message | OOC: Those names aren't democratic. They're American. America isn't the only democracy you know. I honestly think of it as one of the worst. Also Kafuristan parties, please get out of here. This is a matter that should solely be handled by Al Democraty, as much as I hate to say it. This isn't just a normal bill. THIS IS A CONSTITUTION. Kafuristan has ZERO RIGHT to choose or hint at ideas of what Badara wants to do. And as I sadly thought would happen, Big Al has shown once again that their isn't a creative bone in his whole body. |

Message | OOC: Please stop being so rude. It's not as if in the real world nations don't pass opinion on the internal affairs of other nations. If the game didn't intend for other nations to post messages in bill discussions, it wouldn't have been designed for it to be possible for me to post here. And please don't shout either, you have no right to tell me I am not allowed to communicate with Al Jabha al-Queranzīa Badariyā, either as one roleplaying party to another or as one gameplayer to another. |

Message | Besides which, I wasn't aware the United States had a Prime Minister. |

Message | OOC: I'm not demending anything. I'm saying that I think that outside governments shouldn't play part of making constitutions. I have no problems with any other bill, just I think this one would be restricted to Badaran parties. You can talk to Al Jabha al-Queranzia Badariya whenever you want, and I'm not telling you not to. Also, you can't say I'm being rude since I did say 'please'. I could've flat out said 'Stay Out.', but I didn't because I don't want to be rude. And the United States don't, but they have a President, House of Representatives, States, and are called the United States. So, everything besides PM is an American office and/or term. So yeah, I didn't add 'besides the Prime Minister' because I thought everyone knew the US doesn't have one. Sorry. |

Message | OOC: All these names are inspired by Real Arabic Name , House of Representatives is The name of Parliament in Egypt not The American one and United Badaran Emirates doesn't have P.M as the President (Ra'is) will head the cabinet but the game mechanics forces me to have a HoG name although the President will hold the cabinet but he won't have a real existence so there will no P.M in Badara it is just name . And i am not getting influenced by U.S all my names are from Arabic Countries . Some links http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_Representatives_%28Egypt%29 For the Name of United Badaran States . I couldn't choose Emirates as it refers for monarchism and I am not monarchist. see this link : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emirate How can I name my country Emirates and it is not monarchist ! Freedom and Democracy Wanted that but that is not realistic . |
