| Message | "ooc: I realise I have put this to vote straight away, are there any rules I should be aware of in Kanjor for the formation/debating and voting of Bills?" All of us besides Social Democrats wait for a debate for a certain amount of time. You can put stuff right to a vote to get your visibility up. But sometimes I may just put a bill right to a vote if I am retrying to pass something and it has been already debated. |
