Clan Constitution [Updated Mar. 29, 2010]

Preamble
We the founders, in order to form a more perfect clan government, establish justice, the rights of the players, and rules and regulations to secure those rights, and to promote the general gaming experience.

Rules and Regulations


1. Do not post any porn of any variation on our forums or servers, you will be banned immediately
2. Do not spam our forums or server
3. Do not Mic Spam



"Commissioners" -
Has the power to veto any vote if it is not reasonable, they get the final say in any situation, and they both must agree on the final decision before it is passed. Their veto can be overridden by a majority vote by everyone. Can refuse election.


"Advisors" -
Fine tune and re-post votes, sort of like a cabinet to a Canadian government. any issues or questions should be directed to a board member, and not to a Governor General, they are to stop abusive powers by the board. Cannot create rules of any kind, only propose them.

"Clan Members" -

Initiate votes of any sort, vote on rules or laws. Creates laws. (e.g. : servers, forums, ect.)

"Community Spokespersons" -

Represent the community in any situation, and are responsible for delivering any clan news, scandals, or changes to the community.


The Way Things Work:


>Clan member initiates vote > vote is held and decided upon first time with a 51% or higher average > vote passed on to board members who tweak and fine tune ( if necessary ) the vote and re post it (if needed)> if vote gets 51% or more again its then passed on > Governor Generals decide on the final vote and must agree with each other, no compromises, it's a yes or no vote.

A denial by a Governor General can be overriden by a majority vote by everyone.


A clan member having access to admin is completely dependent on their behavior, activeness, helpfulness, to the clan.
Admin votes will be initiated by Board Members which will then be voted on by all members including Governor Generals.

Governor Generals are forbidden to vote on the first or second round of voting, they may only vote on the final decision.

Any Member of the forums may put forward a vote.

The Commissioner has the power to DENY a vote, but that denial can be put up to a vote by forum users (untouchable by the board) if anyone disagrees with it, anyone joined in the forums then has a chance to voice their opinion by voting to override his denial.

ANY VOTES THAT ARE PASSED ARE SUBJECT TO REMOVAL BY VOTE!



Laws are subject to change at any time by vote of the clan members, not including Advisors or Commissioners.
Laws may be added, removed, or amended at any given time or reason by a vote but will not be enforced until the update.
