[News] June 2011 Council Election

[Cyril0321]

Hello Visions!

Souyui’s 3 month council term has come to an end. So now we’re doing a council election.

The election process will proceed as follows:
- A private poll has been made listing all the candidates for Council. Vote here! http://visionshome.guildlaunch.com/custom.php?page_id=71616&gid=103748
- Only members can view this poll
- Only Councils are able to see specifically who voted for who.
- Members can vote for only ONE Council candidate using the private poll
- Members cannot vote for themselves. The vote will be disregarded if you vote for yourself.
- Members are not allowed to nominate once the elections have started, but they can suggest candidates for the next month’s election.
- Although member votes are HEAVILY taken into account, the final decision is made by residing council members so as to preserve the order within the guild (we have had issues in the past that we would like to avoid)
- If a member is voted to be council but has no desire to become one, the runner-up will be declared council
- The election will begin on the 1st of every third month and will end on the 7th of every third month

These are the people that the residing council members feel would be good future councils:

Lunarfire/Blackkite
Allenwalker
lampert
Jehuty00
Kogami

This election is open from tonight until the end of June 08, 2011.

I'm surprised no one ever brings this up but one of the most important responsibilities councils have is in recruitment and I don't think the majority of the council is interested in testing, so if anyone is serious about running please also make an effort to test.

[lampert]

I'd be willing to answer any questions about why I believe I would be a good council, but I'll have to do it after tomorrow morning. I'm studying for the Math II subject SAT today and take it tomorrow at 8AM!!!

As I told Fal, Atm I am not able to play on mabi because I crash like every 5 mins. Something is bad in my client that nexon won't help me with. I have made mention of this situation with my frustration in guild chat when my client crashed.

Once I get this situation straightened out I can continue to test new members and do more runs with the guild.

Also there is WAY more to do as a council member than testing applicants. I encourage people to reconize this when voting for the next council member. A council member MUST be active and interact with members AND non members on a daily basis. A council member MUST be willing to step up and voice their opinion on ANY situation that shall arise. One more important thing for a council member is that they souldn't be afraid to speak up about change. I am willing to do ALL these if I should be voted in as council. I have shown on countless occasions that I am willing to do all this for the guild, and that I do it in the best interest of the guild. I am not afraid to speak up for members either. If a member had a concern about the guild I will be there to make sure their voice and opinion is heard. Yes, I may be a little outspoken and harsh sometimes. But I do it with the best intentions.

We have a tie between lampert and Allen, but only because my vote didn't save for some reason...

Edit: nvm, fixed.
