Sleep on a schedule. Make sure you wage up same time every day. Find a fitting amount of sleep for you personally. Not too much, not too little.

yes go ask a forum full of 12-year old drivers

↩  RedEastWood That doesn't negate the fact that if it's been approved...it's been approved.

Wait time is irrelevant in this conversation.

Now, I would be much more inclined to agree with you, if you were arguing that it's undemocratic / silly to let the owner / developers be the ones deciding priority.

Is this even a suggestion?

I love how this conversation could easily be substituted in for a conversation on voter ID laws lol

They can vote based on the discussions taken place in the thread? If an inactive user is unable to vote, then I don't see any point in allowing discussions on applications.

What constitutes an "informed opinion"?

↩  elmon That's an argument without justification. Ergo you didn't give me a reason.

↩  elmon You don't give me a reason as to why they can't "honestly formulate an opinion"

As an active member of the community I might be a certain image of the individual because they only act a certain way towards me etc. etc.

when talking about applications especially, the only evidence really given is against the applicant. There's not enough evidence for both sides usually and I don't think I've ever seen players providing the same level of evidence (chat logs, screenshots etc) in favour of the applicant than they would against.

I have yet to see a single application where this applies. If the ones vouching object to the objectors' objections, (lol), then it is more than fitting to call them out. (e.g. see last two Admin applications.
Of course it is much easier to put negative evidence against an applicant, however that doens't negate the fact that the application effectively functions as a conversation.

Also, I could make the same counterpoint: when you see the applicant online on the server you may / may not see the good or bad side of them at those particular moments, therefore your opinion might be skewed.

Edit:
Ultimately it is impossible to get an objection image of the applicant, which means that the next best thing is to get all viewpoints put forth on the application, and then we can close-in on that "objective view", which is why I think it's nonsensical to bar inactives from voting.

Jwmphall isn't an MB anymore. This whole clause of who gets to vote is created in order to filter between people, to avoid someone who hasn't been on the server in 3 years coming back and voting when they have no idea what they are voting on. I find a whitelist of who can vote to be better than making a list of who can't.

The MB is included because as an MB you are considered active to some degree within the community, with master builders having their own activity policy. Basically, if you hold an active role in the server I consider that as having enough involvement to be allowed to vote.

Nothing is stopping "Non-active" individuals from posting on the thread with their opinion, that clause only says that their individual vote won't be counted

You didn't answer me. If the application is not meant for discussion, but merely voting, then why even have the ability to converse? Regardless of my activity, I should be (by the current system) able to form an opinion on the applicant based on the evidence put forth against / for him.

Vouch for all blocks. Piston heads etc. are good features to build with.
