9. The proposal must be announced in a video (vlog) and as written text (blog). The written text will be published in a group open to all members of the site, where all discussions should concentrate. A subtab under the tab “The Constitution” will refer to the proposal.

Here's a crazy idea... Since this is an area specifically set up to discuss the voting rules rather than to throw mud at one another.. how about taking your personal differences to a blog post or something and let some small amount of civil discussion happen here. Seriously.. you are acting like children.

- @Argent you are a simple troll expecting me to go off on you.

Comment by Liz (My Life My Rules!) on February 12, 2010 at 10:28pm - I agree with you Diesel about the true purpose. If one can focus on the purpose rather than a personal feeling about another member, then the work of this site can begin.

Comment by Diesel Bodine on February 12, 2010 at 5:05pm - Thank-you, Marcel. I didn't mean to have my proposition and its fall-out take over your post here. Anyone wanting to discuss this further please post a Blog.

Thank-you, Zen. I am also a vote-enabled "citizen" and will speak my mind as such. I will defend my right to express my opinions. All that I expressed here originally was:
"Shouldn't the most important vote, before this continues any further, be whether, or not, the Members of this web site want to continue with this Owner/Admin imposed process? It's apparent some percentage of the Membership do, but they may be in the minority. Isn't Minority rule unacceptable?"
For this, perhaps, some may seek to silence my opinion? I called upon the Members to decide if the current course is what they truly want. That in itself is a democratic proposal...

You don't have to be "part of the process" to not care for how it is going or to voice your opinion. Diesel has every right as a member ( not citizen ) who is effected by the outcome of the process, to provide a differing point of view.
