13:07: [The Dojo] Chronita: Ok, let's begin the assembly now, as always, with a /pray :) 13:07: [The Dojo] Fistoflight: yes lishi =/ 13:07: [The Dojo] Fistoflight: polease.. 13:07: [The Dojo] Fistoflight: please 13:07: [The Dojo] Lishi: i have a ql 4 in bank.. for the meetings 13:07: [The Dojo] Fistoflight: oh.. 13:07: [The Dojo] Chronita: Now for the mandatory “Rules of the Assembly” speech. . . ;) 13:08: [The Dojo] Chronita: I will be moderating this Assembly. This is not to prevent you from expressing yourself, on the contrary, but rather to try to keep it organized. Until I open a topic for discussion, comments in the org channel should be kept at a minimal. 13:08: [The Dojo] Chronita: If I open a discussion, you may freely contribute to the discussion (without standing up), until the discussion is closed. If I ask for any new topics and you have one you would like to raise, please stand and I will recognize you so you can state your topic, then we will have a discussion. 13:08: [The Dojo] Chronita: When discussing, pls respect the others, and stick to the topic currently being discussed. Applicants are requested to limit their posts, and cannot take part in votes. 13:08: [The Dojo] Chronita: If someone from outside the org disturbs our meeting here, the best policy is to just ignore him/her. A council member or myself can tell them the meeting is in progress and ask them to leave, otherwise we should limit our contact with them. In the past it has been proven time and time again that the “zen” approach is best :) 13:09: [The Dojo] Chronita: End of Speech :) 13:09: [The Dojo] Chronita: Ok, basically today I want to inform everyone of some coming changes in the org. 13:10: [The Dojo] Chronita: First - we will not hold the council elections today as planned. 13:10: [The Dojo] Chronita: two main reasons for this - lack of applicants/interest, and recent considerations amongst the council on how to add/replace members in the future. 13:11: [The Dojo] Chronita: We will be discussing the future of the council in the coming week, so hopefully by next assembly I'll have the info on the new proceedure. 13:12: [The Dojo] Ghefi: *cough* Ivve been here all the time *cough* 13:12: [The Dojo] Chronita: Second - at this time we are planning to wipe everyone's rank in the org and start over with a ranking system very similar to the one we have in place today. 13:13: [The Dojo] Chronita: When we do this I and whoever else that agrees to help me will have a list of everyones rank before the org so that everyone can be assured of the correct place in the new system. 13:13: [The Dojo] Greenstorm: Hope 13:13: [The Dojo] Greenstorm: mt 13:15: [The Dojo] Chronita: basically we are doing this because the current hierarchy is flawed with many past members holding positions that need updating but can not due to the fact i need to target someone to demote them, etc. 13:15: [The Dojo] Marrorek: hi dojo 13:16: [The Dojo] Marrorek: yes where is the assembly ?? 13:16: [The Dojo] Xzeo: meeting today? 13:16: [The Dojo] Sticklei: ermite stature in rome red 13:16: [The Dojo] Chronita: Third - we are updating House Gassho (recruitment) as well.
