It has come to my attention that the matter of Althings is a big issue within the Corpora. The Corpora states that there should be one every month, unless otherwise cancelled by the monarch. However, there are monarchs who have decided to say that Althings are cancelled no matter what unless they deem the topics discussed acceptable. While this is supposedly fine and dandy, in reality it is detrimental to parks. In fact, I belong to a park that has this implemented and they have almost lost their duchy status due to missed votes because of this current system.
I don't really know if this has already been brought up, but I would like to propose that the Corpora be changed to state that Althings are mandatory every month unless so many people in the park vote it isn't necessary or there is nothing brought to the table to be discussed. Althings are important to the health of the parks and bring up important topics that need to be addressed. What is deemed as necessary to the group or not should be based upon whether or not the topic being discussed is going to have substance of matter or if it's not important. I have seen monarchs try to ensure their reign by cancelling Althings and rejecting issues as non-issues, so I would like to make sure that everyone gets their voice heard. If a topic is going to be petty and not have any substance behind it, there is no reason to talk about it. However, if there are facts and reasons that are valid and not just childish, they deserve to be heard.
The only other thing that I would be able to think of is sending people to the gallows to be hit with fruits and vegetables that are larp safe.... But that doesn't seem to get anything done except in movies. (haha- please laugh. I was making a joke here) ((I'm horrible at jokes))
I want to hear other's opinions on this matter. What do you think about the current Althing situation, whether or not you think this is a better way to handle Althings, etc.?
