alright. we have to first know what we need to do for bylaws before we write them.

the obvious, would be mod selection, mod promotion, and demodding.

also, warnings, bannings, etc.

also some elasticity.

any others?

perhaps we could also cover pre-requisits for official memberdom, as well as a process of appeal.

*o shit i dropped my new cell on the floor*

urhm.. perhaps some sort of agreement regarding the treatment of propoasals in the feeback forum as well

alright...those sound like some good starting statements. has the staff part of the committee been picked so we can start debating topics and coming to a consensus?

i think regular mods have mod powers in the forum also, not just committee mods?

the mod side's been appointed.

i suggest the first thing you (the committee members) do is get a basic outline of what the bylaws will cover. research and use google for bylaw templates, samples, etc. then, decide how the committee will decide on writing up the bylaws. things like how will it be ratified to be part of hte bylaws...

you guys have a great challenge ahead. it wont be easy, but if done right, this will potentially be a very good thing for the cb community. good luck and God bless. =)

I figured I might as well put the mod members in here from the other topic to make it less confusing

and yah this will be a challenge, but it is a great committee and i think everyone can do this. I suggest everyone start doing their reading on bylaws and Roberts Rules and then we'll all talk. This is exciting :)

I think before worrying about syntactical issues (format of by-laws, templates, how to write them down precisely, etc.), it might be best just to start discussing the basic, rudimentary foundation of such by-laws, and what we hope to accomplish by forming this committee.

^ Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. The most obivious issue for discussion would be hiring. So why not make a seperate thread so we can all start brain storming ideas. We can also make seperate threads for other things we would like to discuss.

excuse the double post, but it's for the bump:

our bylaws need to cover three major areas:

the members

the mods

the site


members would include official members, official designers, etc. also warning of members, etc.

mods would include admin, headstaff, design staff. also include provisions for modding and demodding.

site would include provisions for rules, etc.

format should be in an article section form, as:

article I.
-section 1
-blah de blah part one
-blah de blah part two
-section 2
article II.


etc etc.

right.
