Coming up soon! Please be patient.

when shall all proposals be ended and the bylaws take effect?

it seems to be slowing down...so maybe were finished, but we need to establish when everything will be done.

1. when all discussion is ended
2. when the formal writing of the bylaws should be done by
3. when bylaws take effect

im still willing to do the formal writing, if you want me too

i guess if you want to. i dont know anyone else that has sparked interest in it.

should we leave it all up to one person?

maybe different members of the committee could write different parts.

im not volunteering though.

i was really wondering if any mods would make difficulties about it, but thanks, spencer

= )

oh, and i tried to AIM you but you are away

oh and insomniac, i only volunteeed because i have experience writing in that style

i don thave any problems doing it all

and it doesnt involve any actual input or changing the laws, just cpopying them up in formal, basically, so i dont personally see the need to spread it out.

but if someone else wants to help, its all good

well, ill find out if anyone else is interested.

and im on aim now.

Thanks for the offer but we dont need one right now. It seem to be organized for now.

What do you mean? The Guest is James, who originally offered to write out the formal By-Laws...

He was offering his skills to produce a better format, right ? what's wrong with the format right now?


Btw, are you part of the bylaw member ? If so, i'll include your name in that post.

If need be, I'd be willing to collaborate with James on formalizing the by-laws, although, like he mentioned, it may not be necessary.

err... i'm not actually a by-law mod, i only hang out here...

and nicki is still from staff, methinks?

i edited the list

nicki is still on the committee as staff member and i believe kiera is on staff.

[/james]

fine. i'll start adding the james tags again. im back in like 5 days anyway, so its all good

oh, ok. if we decide its necessary (and given what is writen up there, it doesnt particularly seem it, anna and i can draw up the formal version between us)

[/james]

oh, and wasnt sammi one of the mod members?

because nicki is no longer a mod, so she has a member spot. so that means hat there are only 4 mods. so the other one is sammi. right? or am i losing my mind?

^
i think i got it right this time. correct me if im wrong.

correct list:

incoherent
insomniac
rachel is love
spiritual winged aura
tweeak

kissme2408
mipadi
mzkandi


those are the people with mod powers in by-laws.

No, I'm still on the committee as a mod because I have more experience in that area nad can relate to their view points better. Of course, a lack of backstage access is a rather large hinderance to this, but nevertheless, that was chosen.

You know what, let me use my admin abilities to find out quickly who exactly is part of this committee.

If you just look at the mod list, it has the members as mods only for this, and staffers with 21 forums rae on too.

I can't find it anymore. -_-

Edit\\
Nevermind. The current list is right.

yeah, i checked and it was right...

i guess im just good.

haha j/k.

Thanks everyone for correcting the list ! I was confused too.

Umm, I could have sworn that we kept Nicki as a mod on the committee?

http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=112823

There.


http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php...t=105051&st=100

And there.

I thought so too, but then we'd have 6 staff mods...

I thought that we were going to keep Nicki as mod...which would take Michael down to regular member? IDK...maybe we didn't need the regular member after all?

I joined as a regular member, so... Hm. I thought Nicki was keeping the mod's position, too.

To clairfy, I meant that we didn't need to hire another regular member (Insomniac)

oh, nice.

Well both Nicki and Michael were on before you dear. It is nothing personal, just that we had decided that Nicki stayed at a mod and that would mean that Michael shouldn't be at mod-status in the committee.

hm.........


i could have sworn it all worked out to 10 members.

edit//
it does.

rachel-it works because james isnt on the committee anymore...meaning that if nicki stays as mod and michael stays as a regular member, leaving james' spot open.

Oh yeah. Whoops.

but.. what is the point of michael and nicki remaining on the same lists as they were originally appointed too? it seems logical to me that they would switch.

because look

Michael counts as a mod, and I count as a mod too, so then there's 4 of each

but then who was the other person who left the committee?

because that is only 8

10 - james = 9

9 - ????? = 8

and isnt sammi on the committee? i swear she has been voting

sammis on the committee...

^^

right. thats what i thought.

so nicki and michael must have swapped positions, to make it fit. which is what it says in the thread. o.k

now i understand.

and nicki, check your email

Omg. I'm confused. There is suppose to be 5 on each member and staff member of bylaw mod ... could i be wrong ?

This is the real list I think:
Members: incoherent, insomniac, Spiritual Winged Aura, Rachel is love, and mipadi
Staff Members: Heathasm, disco infiltrator, KissMe2408, tweeak, and mzkandi

THAT IS WHAT WE AGREED ON I BELIEVE

ahh, musthave not counted sammi cus she's headstaff...

Hm, i think someone might want to pm them to find out the truth. No bylaw mods should ignore this thread.

Rachel's list is right

and James, you haven't sent me an email, unless I opened it and forgot to reply...
just kidding, i found it

WTF are you talking about?

can you not read? the list is correct. thats been stated about 25 times.

Oh okay, this is the part when i got confused. Sammi is tweeak ? Sorry guys.

nicki=tweeak
sammi=disco infiltrator

michael being a member and nicki a mod irks my anal nature.

but ah well

NO!

oh, now I see Spencer's post


I don't think that's really all that important, just so long as there's wqual numbers.

^
i dont think its important at all either, as all committee members are equal for this purpose... i just like neat lists which make sense

*spazes*
