As we now have twenty members in the USNW, the Chancellor, Jon Clark, and the Executive Secretary, myself, propose we make an addition to the administration by adding in one non-cabinet administrator that is a full member.

Jon and I have proposed two nominations for this position: Matt and Daniel. These two members have each had tremendous impact on the USNW and other sites, as displayed below:

Matt
  • Ran the United SimCity Nations (USCN) in 2007 and the Adrian Union in 2008. The Adrian Union was the second-largest union during his time as a co-administrator. It is also the second-oldest union, beginning in 2006. He was also a member of the AIN in 2009.
  • A Full Member of the United Sovereign Nations since May 2011. He never was an Ambassadorial Member more than a day.
  • Runs the Ministry of Science and Space Exploration in the USNW.
  • Runs the Adonian Leaguebasket and helps with the Adonian Intercontinental Football Federations.


Daniel
  • Has been hovering the United Sovereign Nations since it was the Confederacy of Free Regions (2COFR) since around 2010.
  • An Ambassadorial Member of the USNW since April 2011 and a Full Member since early May 2011.
  • You've probably heard from Daniel before: with over 1300 posts and an activity index of over 600, he is the most active member in the history of the USNW. Daniel is the Minister of Defense and the Consul of the Court.
  • Began the Adonain World Heritage Site program and runs the International Tennis League.


Saathoff
  • Ran the AIN into a major union during 2009 through 2010 and the 2COFR for a short while in 2010.
  • Full Member since August
  • Minister of Health, Safety, and Education
  • Runs the Adonian Football League and the Adonian Intercontinental Football Federations. The AIFF won a trixie in December.


Tyler
  • Was Admin within the AIN during Peters stint as President, along with mine. He was quite active, helping us create forums and graphics.
  • Full Member since August
  • Created of the AIFF, actively participates in discussion about the union and on skype.
  • Runs the Adonian Intercontinental Football Federations and is credited with creating the successful league. The AIFF won a trixie in December. Also helps run AICS Football


Future nominations must be nominated by someone other than yourself, and must be a full member. Anybody who thinks they have a candidate worth the nomination for this position can nominate, and the nominator may not nominate more than one person.

Nominate like this:
Spoiler:

After we get a few nominations we find worthy, we will put them up for vote. We will accept one and only one administrator, so think hard Smile

Also, if you do not wish to be an administrator, you can respectfully decline a nomination at any time.

I don't really thing this is necessary, three people is plenty to handle this job, I think four is too many.

Then you can abstain from voting or vote no. Smile

This is a two-part vote. One is to let this thing happen (the second vote), and the second vote is the actual "election".

Me and Jon talked about this, sorry you disagree.

Time for debate, we should do this more often.

Could you please list the reasons we need another administrator? I don't feel it's necessary, and I'm not just being selfish. I think things are handled quickly and well with three members, I don't see the need to add another. Having a longer member list is not a reason to add more administrators when things can be handled just as well if all the current administrators step up.

I'm also taking this down from being a Union announcement, there's no reason for Assembly proposals to be union announcements. Votes, yes, proposals, no.

It's that same mindset that made us lose a very active full member last month. It could be handled faster. I'm not saying were slow, we three are a good team Smile Me and Jon want some fresh blood to help though, as our union is growing more every day (3 new members last week).

No, I'm pretty sure he left for another reason. Not to mention I was very busy that month. I do most of the work anyway. If you really think we're slow then maybe you could pitch in a little more effort than typing usernames in the member groups.

First off, you guys should have your admin discussions privately instead of calling him out in public for everyone to see.

Secondly, I think a 4th admin would be a good idea because it's always good to have new viewpoints on things. Perhaps someone that isn't originally from USNW and could represent new members and what they think.

Transparency is a good thing. But, let me say something. I'll take a little idea from a Dabu, I think that a 1/6 ratio of admins to members should be the limit, as we haven't reached that, I'm against this. Smile

Not when your transparency is saying K50 is a bad admin cause he doesn't do anything. Good transparency would explain what the admins are up to not what their personal problems are

I didn't call him a bad admin, he does do things, important things, I'm just saying he could do more. We all could. Instead of adding another person to rough things up I think that the three we have now should pitch in more because even I am not doing all I could. Adding more people doesn't always fix things, making the people that are supposed to do things do them is what we should be doing.

Hi... And I left for a few reasons, I did feel the admins were a little slower than I'd liked them to be but that wasn't the only reason. And i'm still active, still log in every day, I just don't usually say anything because I have no point to add. anyways, now i'm retreating back to lurker.

btw, in the conditions, I'm not concerned about being called out anonymously in public but It's probably a good idea not to do that Wink I'm more considerate than some folks on that Razz

To be honest, what was slow? I know you wanted your thing renamed but you only told me that once, I was bound to forget?

Well it was a few things along those lines, actually it happened at various times, I never saw the motto on Calma Domhain, never saw Aquilonia renamed until it got moved into the Archives (and it still had/has the Calman flag even then but I don't care at this point) and I know there was atleast one other I'm forgetting. And I can understand one but that did make me feel like nothing ever got done around here somewhat, and I sent a PM to K50 that got made into a thread (btw, K50 I did just send that one to you) about events coming up, and that kinda came up empty if I remember right, but I may be wrong, just Usong I think and that's a bit small of an event from where I stand, although, I admit, i'm not sure what the backroom stuff is that goes on with that.

Also, Chip, I may not have sent every one of these PM's i'm talking about to you but thats kinda my whole list of stuff.

Will with all due respect, this doesn't affect you Will Razz In your union, we aren't usually allowed to see these things, much less comment on them.

Also Will, I made an entire thread about that issue. September is a dead month with most of our members from North America. Smile
