Hello everyone! I'm running in the Prime Bimbo election this October and was wondering if the bimbo public had any thoughts or ideas on my promises.
What do you wanna see from a future prime bimbo, vs what do you not care about/not need.

I wrote my promises with my own perspective and would appreciate others, even if I do not win the Prime Bimbo election I can try and do some of these as a state minister, and also bring them up to the Prime Bimbo   I will also do the same with any ideas any of you may have, I just want an increase in communication between Pink House members and the general bimbo public.

My promises are as follows,

♥ Hello! As Prime Bimbo I promise to work with the state ministers, forum guardians, and the secretary on the following issues! ♥

♥It is well known that Miss Bimbo (the site owner) has neglected the site and failed to support the user base on numerous occasions. I'm going to eat her alive.

♥I will include harder punishments towards discrimination, harassment and bullying. As you may know, Bimboland was recently changed to be 16+. I have seen vulnerable, young users be targeted and harmed by other players on here in the past, and yet little was done to deal with that. I absolutely refuse to let vulnerable users be put at risk anymore. No other website has this much leniency to blatant discrimination and harassment, and it is absolutely shameful that this has been allowed to continue.

♥I will campaign for more outfit categories and slots, as the user base has been requesting since the very start. I'm sure we would all love to see what the user base can make with more creative freedom

♥I will implement general moderators, including LGBT moderators, at this moment the only person who can moderate users profiles is the Prime Bimbo. My goal is to change that so there is a team you can report harmful DMS, profiles, and debate answers to, with the support of existing forum moderators.

♥I will implement a system of strikes for volunteer staff and moderators. This is to prevent abuse of power towards the user base and to make the volunteer staff and moderators safer.

♥I will make sure the bot problem is dealt with, as some of you know bots have likely started voting in the PBFC as well. To make the PBFC and future elections fair the bots must be removed completely

♥I will make an anonymous google form for reporting users to staff. I will also have another anonymous form which you can use to report said members of staff, which they won't have any access to. They will also be able to report eachother to prevent any harmful behaviour behind the scenes and to keep the volunteers safe as well.

♥I will have Team Bimbo notify me before the site shuts down for maintenance, so there will be site-wide forum announcements 24 hours before the site shuts down as a much-needed warning to the user base.

♥I will campaign for more mini-games. Also, a revamp on the already existing mini-games to make them enjoyable and more than just basic memory games. Including mini-games to gain fitness and vanity

♥ I will campaign to implement a gifting system, so you can give other users gifts in the form of clothing, artefacts and meat

♥While this isn't as important as other points here. I will try my best to make the states cuter colours and have each state vote for which colour they would like best to represent themselves

♥The renaming of the people smuggler job and “commit bimbo suicide” (alongside other problematic text on the site) to be more appropriate.

♥If I become Prime Bimbo I promise to be open and available at all times. I love this website and I genuinely would love for it to be a better and safer environment for other players ♥
I will be replying to every comment on this post,

you’re going to implement moderators who are LGBT, which i think is great! it would also be good to have moderators of color :) in addition to the gifting system there should be trading + an increase of items we are allowed to sell a month

Seconding the moderators of colour thing. Right now any kind of issue with racism gets dumped on Origin because most of the moderators are white, and at least the ones I've spoken to about it don't wanna speak over/for poc. It'd be good to get that fixed.
On the topic of moderators though, I wanted to suggest maybe trying to get TB to make a more formal way of paying volunteer staff (asking for a friend..)? Right now we can ask kimsim for rewards if we want to, but a more consistent and less hassling way of doing it would be much better I think?

You're both completely right on moderators who are poc, i dont want the majority of issues with racism to be dumped on origin, also considering that she would most likely also appreciate some support from moderators who wouldn't be speaking over her, or for her. I'll add that to my promises and be sure to go through with it once the time comes 

On trading items, I'm sure that would be super easy to programme in alongside a gifting system if team bimbo is willing, so ill also add that as they go hand in hand with eachother

On Payments to volunteers/designers, all that would take from me is bugging kimsim to pay you all every week, he has the tools to easily send out diamond and B$ to people after contests so ill also add that as you all deserve payment for the work you do you make this game better  ♥

thank you both  ♥

My only advice would be this: Don't make promises that you can't keep. It probably sounds pessimistic, because big shiny promises are the ones that get votes, but it's the honest truth. When you get voted in and don't make those promises a reality, you'll earn the ire of the users, even though the fault isn't yours.
The PB can't do any of the things you have in your program on their own, and you're going to be relying solely on the whims of the owner, and the schedule(or lack thereof) of the developers. And if they decide to take a two week hiatus from the game with no heads up, you're a dead figurehead in the water.

As a former PB I have to agree with Cum_Dumpster. You are making promises for which you need to rely on TB's willingness to cooperate. And I can tell you from years of experience: you won't get that cooperation. I really don't want to sound pessimistic or burst your bubble. I do hope you can get all you planned a reality, but as said before, you need TB's cooperation and there is no former PB who ever had full cooperation from TB. Actually the whole TB team was almost completely absent during the whole summer. Just wanted to share my experience in this, I do hope you are more lucky than I was.
Good luck in the elections :)

I do have to say that, I am fully aware of Team Bimbos negligence, that's why for a lot of my promises I made sure to mention things that don't exactly require TB's support, like removing the bots (jailing, bad solution, but it does work and doesn't require team bimbo), the google form, harsher punishments towards discrimination, all the others have been things that are either being worked on (I do know Team Bimbo has been working on renaming the suicide option, it just has taken forever since they're team bimbo) or that the userbase has been fighting for since the beginning. By putting things like outfit categories in my promises im confirming that ill continue to fight for them like previous PBs. I would also be using that power by supporting Toki in her fight for outfit slots, as she has made really good progress.

While I do not have your years of experience on this site, I spent months, maybe more. working as my job in the pharmaceutical industry in moderation/social media management with zero managers after they had gotten fired but I hadn't. I had zero support for my actions, I was running a ship that was on fire and I was running it alone, that's why I'm confident on my ability to be a good prime bimbo. I'm used to absolutely zero support when the site was so broken I got five separate DM's about it daily, the site was in worst ruin than this one somehow lol, we didn't have programmers or writers anymore and we specialised in articles </3

I do have to say that with some of my more ambitious promises like general moderators, I will still go through with them if I don't have team bimbos support in the matter. If they don't want to create a separate role category for general moderators (which believe me, I would love if they did, but I don't have faith lol) I will adapt and give some forum guardians a new unofficial title and full permission from me to start moderating users profiles, with state ministers being able to jail users in their place for them. I am fully expecting team bimbo not to help me and I am fully prepared to deal with things without them as I have been doing under other jobs my whole working life. Thank you for the good luck message and also thank you CD and you Sandi for the feedback <3
