I would like to thank everyone who contributed to the growth and development of Zormite during my rule. I sincerely hope our kingdom will continue to benefit from your leadership. Please support your new Dictatress with all your creativity and earnest.

To my Fedakahn, the idea man, my mentat, thank you for being the one and only who never failed my confidence, not once. Please stay and nurture and create.

To Zoe and Padren, comrades for life, my very strength, thank you for the support I counted on and still do. Your friendship has uplifted me and continues to do so.

To my Zanna, thanks for your sweetness, creativity, calm cheerfulness and support. Take your sister's hand in leadership and remember,... your role shall enlarge in months to come.

To my Akira, you have all my confidence and love both RP and real. I shall stand behind you, 'mother Wren's' hand at your back. Step forward, strong and sure in confidence. Enjoy the light that you have become to us all.

Wren Sagesun Archigos
Dictatress of the Zormite Republic
Congratulations Aki <3 , Wren <3

Hmm, at this rate the only Kingdom NOT ruled by a woman is Forest, right?

Anyway, congratulations Akira, and good luck Wren.

I don't know what you prefer, an excuse to be rude or wasting people's time.

I told you to read the constitution.
http://forums.graal2001.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=44486
Quote:
Article III. Terms of Office
Members of the ruling party maintain their positions in public office until the party loses power to another party recognized by the government. This rule is constant, except for in special circumstances.

1. Terminating Senior Officials
This member of the ruling political party is entrusted as knowing what actions are most in accordance with the ideology of the party. As such, he may not be voted out of power by other party members, and his actions are presumed to always be within party guidelines. If he begins to waiver, than he has deemed it nessisary for an alteration in the party's agenda. If the senior offical elects to resign, the office becomes hereditary, meaning only an offspring or other family member of the senior official (who is justly familiar with the goals of the party) may take office. The selection of a new senior official will additionaly take place whenever there is a change in power from one party to another, at which point the office is no longer hereditary.
Arguing once in a while is one thing but you cannot argue in every single thread and stray from the topic with every single post without it being considered disruptive. You have made your feelings about the nature of Zormite GK very very clear, in many previous threads. There is no reason for you to continue on with this hostility as the issues have been settled.
You don't like Zormite in GK. I don't like orcs in GK (bomies were invented for a reason) but I don't complain about it.

Stop spamming please.

a) Dustari did not vote, during times when leadership has been called into question, we have held votes to clarify what people want, out of character. Each kingdom is a group of people who RP, not a 'real republic' or a 'real monarchy' - which I am thankful for because I pay enough taxes irl.

b) The Zormite Republic has a Constitition that, as I stated above, is rather clear on how the resignation of an official is to be handled.

If the people [i]in[/b] Zormite are happy with the Republic (talking to both of you, GZ and Nappa) then that should be well enough.

GoZelda, back when you were in Zormite and Zen as Dictator, you were rather happy with the Constitition, which has remained unchanged since that time. Your complaining now really is just a way to attack Wren and her legacy on a personal level, and has nothing to do with the Republic.

Good times - I was a Senator then.
I was trying to lobby for lower fares for Dustarians using the ferry lol.
The Senate was dissolved at the end of Larrien's reign.

Wren, I am sorry to see you are retiring...I think you made a great choice in Aki she will do well.

The tradition of Zormite and Dustari's longstanding friendship was pervasive when I was first a soldier my very first day, it has persisted through our times, and will continue to be one of the great legacies that will carry on and be a source of pride for the future peoples of our two nations.


May the Republic always prosper, and her walls never fall.

Zormite is not the real life world incase you haven't checked recently. However, it's constitution dictates what shall be.

One thing not to worry over, Nappa - You would never be elected. Only someone 'fool' enough to be your friend would make you a leader.

I don't remember him suggesting himself for the Dictatorship...that's a pretty big leap to make.

Sorry you missed the point Gryffon. Just standby - watch more and listen closer.

If in the constitution of zormite it's not a republic due to hereditary changes in leadership, take the stupid Republic out of the name. I don't care if "Graal isn't real life". You can't change what a republic is.

I've already stated my feelings on the matter of the name.

'Republic' is by definition not fitting.

You know, definition 1a of 'republic' from dictionary.com...

This is the whole point 'already stated' being the operative part of the statement, it is not worth yet again rehashing.

Everyone who disliked the term basically took it up with Zen at the time the Constitition and whole Republic was born.

That was a very long time ago that debate started, and died.


If you don't like it, leave Zormite over it. Oh wait, you aren't in zormite.
Time to move on to other topics then.


NOTE: I deleted my 'not privy' post as it missquoted gryf after he changed his post, so if anyone is trying to find out where I said that, its on that deleted post.

That would be the concept of people not being omnipotent, one that I am both fully aware of and accept.

At the same time you are not privy to every conversation and thing that goes on. We both know things that the other dosen't, and this in itself is the greatest flaw with the entire logical concept of human communication
