I personally think that elections are unfair for Kingdoms. Usually I think it's better to pass down the lineage to other users. It seems like a better tradition for monarchies.

Problem was people selling kingdoms for USD. Plus, who knows how many accounts one person has access to.

I thought the current proposed system was fine. The person in power told Staff who they'd want, however, they had to back up their proposal and staff would ultimately have to approve it.

I am very unhappy about the frequently changing of leaderships in the last 12 month. I would like to see a solid leadership for a longer term than only a few weeks.

I don't really see how holding an election helps this.

Based on this, you should look at who has played the longest consecutively.

An election doesn't make a person stay around longer. And if someone inexperienced attains a throne, the kingdom will continue to go nowhere.

Elections won't help. It's mostly done by favouritism.
Who ever has the most friends will get more votes, you should pick someone who is active. Someone who has been around for a few years. And someone who a lot of people respect.

Yes it has nothing to do with the election it was more meant to express my hopes, at last I know its impossible to make everybody happy.That's the reason for the poll and what I see is the majority wants an election.

Of course not everyone will be happy. But I think you said it best earlier. You were wondering why people only nominated a few people. People didn't even read the thread, they were sent there by someone else who told them to vote whoever when it wasn't even the point of the thread.

But, it's hard to avoid and most likely inevitable with any player involvement. Oh well.


On another note. I would just like to add that this "Strom" fellow did not even know who Bjorn was. He identified Bjorn as Hatred89. Just a tidbit I found interesting for someone who is up for a big position.

Recently I found out why I shouldn't nominate Taikun, so I'm nominating Hatred89 instead now.

I know Hatred as well. His beginning was scratchy, but he seemed to be an alright fellow afterward.

I might vote for Hatred. He's been with samurai for a bit. One of the major reasons that I think Strom wanted the kingdom was in case Susse wanted it back. This really shouldn't be.

Nate would be a much better person for Emperor. I know this is not the maloria forums but he was the greatest king that ever had a nation on maloria and he actually helps people when they needed help. He's not going to just throw samurai around. And Hatred thinks he's better than everyone. And nobody wants to listen to someone who is only level 14 and is mean to people. Strom is a nice guy he has never been anything but a nice guy to me or anyone else that i have seen. And if somehow Taikun wins i'm pretty sure half of samurai will leave. Not many people in Samurai want him as Emperor.
