We could still elect a president would not have that much power though TBH

Nick IS the President..

Kind of pointless really, although a well thought out suggestion I think there is far more important things that could be done then having all this fuss!

Or is he the Speaker of the House?

What about overthrowing Steven Gerrard as Liverpool captain?!

Alright idea killed but now I set a curse on those putting my ideas down
Every October the 31st you will be visited by kids dressed in costumes that will steal your candy.

Thread down Cap Please

Isn't the Speaker of the House the person who creates the thread?

I don't know what you call the person who puts forward the ideas in Government. If the Speaker of the House is the person who regulates the debating, isn't that the entire Staff Team?

The Speaker of the House is the leader of the United States House of Representatives in the government of the United States. He or she is elected by the current members of the House and the person with the most votes becomes Speaker. The Speaker is always a member of the majority party (the party with the most members). The job of the Speaker is to keep the House in order and to assign committee memberships and chairmanships. It is a powerful position in government.

Thats the Admin then..?

And I see your point that Nick would be president and the mods the rest of the government but the point of it was to get more "down to earth" player who aren't mods or admins to show their opinions.

It is not like I am trying to overthrow nick because nick is amazing in what he has done here it is just that I thought that there could be kind of two governments.

Look what you said!

lol cloone no really nick is the best
cap this

What difference does it make about what mods/admin think (with the exception of nick)? Everyone's opinion counts, mods/admin don't have a higher say in things.

Would love to see a vote by the users on who they ranked as best / worst mods, leading to the worst mod losing their position.

thats just plain cruel!!!

On many levels I would agree, IF such a vote could possibly be founded upon how well each mod is in fact doing his/her job. That is however not the same thing as how popular the mods are - which is unfortunately precisely what such a vote would be.

In short - the best mod isn't necessarily the most popular one.

Although I agree that it's very likely that the least popular mod also is a bad one

I have to acknowledge the idea, but then again, if you want something like that, then get involved outside of the internet. The Admins and Mods are the governing people of the game, which means they are the leaders.
You're looking for a funkypool Government...well, you already have it!

Really, I'm active in politics, and the idea is nice, but pointless.

Fintan, a complete guess: Fine Gael?
