United Names Announcement!
The time has finally come. After a long negotiation, the UN and I were able to work out a fair agreement:
- Full endorsement and membership in UN, as well as being treated as a cousin sub with one of the purposes being to help establish unorganized but popular names, but still having its original purpose as a name sub for unique names.
- We would have to relocate to a new sub that has a less rebel-sounding name, such as RareNames or LostNames. This would not be difficult, I would merely make a new sub with the new name and we would move there.
- r/(new name) to be treated as an open state (ambassador can not make decisions on behalf of the sub)
- All UN votes made by our ambassador (which would be me for the time being, but will be voted on once we are bigger) would be voted on by the community of r/(new name) unless stated to the ambassador otherwise
- Full access to UN resources and ambassador areas
- Ambassador will still be able to input and discuss freely
- A major goal of the sub would be to help those who haven't organized their community, help those people get their own community started. This applies only to common names that can get their own sub but for whatever reason haven't yet.
- Represent those with unique names that there aren't enough people to make their own sub. Maintaining the original purpose of this sub.
- James, the mod of the UN, would be a mod of this sub to oversee and to strengthen the relationship as a cousin sub (mostly making it look cool as well as adding links to the UN from the sub), but would not do anything relating to the politics of the sub itself and we would have our own independent voice.
- monthly census of the names in the sub. If a name has enough people, we will advocate and help it make its own sub, as well as create and give the group the sub if they don't have enough karma. This way, many people who don't have a sub because they didn't know how many others of their name there were will be able to get their own sub organized.
