Re #73: My understanding is they are on backup tapes. If someone destroys
them without a member vote, I will consider that another act of staff
vandalism.

Mark - I actually do understand the issue at hand. I don't get why members
voted to keep the items deleted. At it's core, it is censorship, no matter
how anyone tries to spin it as something else. And if people are comfortable
with that, fine. But don't expect me to like it.

(When will the vote on this proposal begin? Since it was proposed before
the proposal requiring supporting endorsements was passed, I think it
shouldn't need the endorsements.)

I'm not comfortable with anything, Brooke. It was a difficult decision.
But I voted in the way that I thought would best serve Grex.

My inattention and the fact that your request was sandwiched in among
a lot of other verbiage. If you still with to go ahead with it, I'll
start a vote today or tomorrow.

That personal comment about how hte resolution has supposedly been defeated
twice should NOT be there.

Painful as it is for me to do so, I agree with #87. Commentary on
the proposal does not belong in the motd.

Yup. Once again, Grex staff engages in unethical behavior. It seems like
only weeks ago Gelinas and others were claiming that Valerie's actions
were an aberration, and that staff was unlikely run amok any time soon.

Hi! I'm the elections overseer assigned to Grex by the UN Elections and
Democracy Comittee.
I believe the comment in 87 refers to the following note, which appears in
the MOTD:
(NOTE: This proposal has already been voted on and
defeated twice. Due to a recent change in the Grex bylaws, a recurrence of
this unusual situation is unlikely.) -jhr
This is, I think, a fairly clear example of the reigning party using the
state-sponsored maedia to promote its own politicised agenda. It's not armed
gunmen running away with ballot boxes, but it's close.

I agree with the UNELECT Committee's appraisal.
This vote is already permanently tainted, and jp2 should be apologised to.

No conspiracy or ruling-party stuff, just me acting on my own. Wasn't
intended to be prejudicial, just a heads-up explaining the circumstances
to people who don't follow Coop and suddenly found themselves voting on
something they thought they'd already voted on.
Hey, I voted for the first incarnation of the proposal and voted against
the followups because I felt that a revote on something just decided,
in the absence of new circumstances, was bad procedure.
Anyhow, I've taken the parenthetical remark out of the motd. Reference to
the disposition of the previous motions was probably inappropriate. I'm
curious if folks think that a simple reference to the fact that this is
a repeat vote, without mentioning the disposition of previous votes or
other related circumstances, would have been appropriate. And don't hold
back just to spare my feelings; if you think it'd be wrong, just say so.
Us amock-runners have nerves of steel!

It was mostly factual, but I think could have been better worded, so as to
stir up lesser controvery.
In other news, anyone spot anything interesting about this output from the
vote program? :-)

Controversy isn't always bad; hyperbole is another story.
Oops! Fixed the date. (The hazards of copy & paste.)
