Councils

Postby paladin » 17 Feb 2011, 23:28

We've all seen them. Each one rises and falls, and each one is lead by the same people.
They claim that they are making a council to get rid of rebellion, but its the cause. I believe that there should be small factions fighting for themselves, believing in one cause. Each person in the council will have a voice, there are no leaders, just people together as a group. The councils are in control of who you can talk to, who you cant. Who you can and can't role-play with, and everything else. Prophet and I had a hell of a time role-playing without councils. We just fought whenever. Also, the councils dont want to disband. Proof:

ghost 9: anyone who claims such a thing will die
The "Thing" is that the council will be disbanded.
Who agrees with me? Please post your opinions, counter arguments and such below.
Thanks for reading.

I agree. I mean, I like the councils, but all their rules are stupid. 'You will lose all your powers if you leave. You will die if you mention disbanding the council. You will die if you leave the council. You will die if you talk to an enemy, even though they're your friend.' Seriously?!

I'm reminded that I should be getting over it.

the councils are allowed to have sub groups now. which means they can gather people, their friends, and fight small battles and such. the dictatorship is at an end. All people who claim the council is destroyed, is going to be killed. its a direct threat to the council. We are allowed to rp whatever we want as long as its apropriate, and we do. As for controling social activities, i only said that because i killed pal fairly, now he says hes alive. This is stupid, because i killed him fairly, witnesses can tell u that, and he claims he hasnt been killed. That is why i say no one can take pals rp into accounts whos in the council, u can talk to him, but u cant rp with him, for hes dead, how can u?

Then how are you a ghost and we can still roleplay with you? Foiled. Anyways, the *shoves paladin into a rip of time* gig isnt really a fair fight, is it?
And taking peeps powers when you beat them is stupid, because you'd have a really long title if you defeat every one of the peeps you fight.

Reducing the sizes of councils and making everyone equal will not change things. There will always be those who say that they're the leader of a group. Although some councils are corrupt, I have some faith in the one I am in now. SOME. I may lose said faith if, idk, members are treated unfairly because they like peace, not war. One reform that MUST be made, regardless of what happens, is that at least 1/2 of the council members must vote on any major decision (such as declaring war, electing officials, etc.). Otherwise, the dominant council members run an unregulated oligarchy.

The Councils should be Democratic... After this Council fell no one will join another one. This was the last resort.
