Oh okay, I see. Would the tool be automatically handed to next pbs too or would you maybe consider first if they are trustworthy?Its not my job to judge who is trustworthy.
Thank you for your answers, Chris. Again, my intention was not to bash with you, but let everything clear since we usually don't get the opportunity to talk directly with you. Since you already understand what we're talking about the site being inappropriate for minors, can I suggest a middle ground solution?Nice idea - but giving overworked developers more work when they have too much to do already. They will make the changes dont worry
- Temporary lift the age limit to 18+; We could jail the minors already registered meanwhile and - when TB finishes the necessary changes - make it 16+ again, if you wish. That way we had enough time to prepare everything to accommodate those users and people get used to the fact that we must deal with teenagers from now on. Also, I'm aware that teenagers often do all those things and it's wrong. However, we are adults and we shouldn't encourage that behavior or make it easy for to them engage in such actions.

I trust you the Bimbo people to do that - the Bimbo community will democratically vote in the best PB.
So yes the tool would be for the next PB too. Personally I don't see the problem.

I dont understand why you fear other Bimbos being voted in? You won the election fair and square because you were the most popular. Obviously people knew you, trusted you and voted for you.The problem here is that when there's an influx of new players right before an election they can really screw with the results because the level to allow voting is too low. Just like what happened with this last SM election. Sure the voting may have happened fairly, but all these new players definitely weren't on the site for long enough to really get to know the site and the players. A lot of people also join this site as a joke because "haha funny bimbo site", and when they see someone acting unhinged or also treating this place as a joke run for a position of power all they'll think is "haha funny person" and hit vote without being aware of the consequences, I can say with full guarantee that a lot of the new players who voted during the last SM election aren't even playing anymore because they never took this site seriously.
You acted reasonably and therefore won peoples trust.
The same will happen in future - anyone voted in will be a reasonable person. Bimbos won't vote for idiots.
When you worry about others being put in power you actually undermine your own victory!
