 sorry, auntielice im a little confused

i thought we were talking about chris ignoring elected leaders choices rather than how people are behaving in the forums. are there really users making such weird demands? i haven't seen anything like that whilst i've been on here, although tbh i am pretty new player

i agree everyone should be able to say how they feel, and that includes far left leaning ppl too. i think there should be rules in place to stop any dogmatic rhetoric tho. just like in real life. fx if you call someone a slur here in england that is viewed as a hate crime by our police

I’m not sure what there is to be confused about. There were multiple posts discussing Forum conduct earlier in the topic, feel free to flick back through and read them.

I think what AuntieLice is referring to is the Cowboy Gang drama. It’s in the court case forum if you’d like a long read.

They have a point. This is supposed to be a political site after all. I’m all for dressing up my Ximbo, and most of the time I ignore political arguments, but if people are feeling scared to go against the masses with their political views, there must be a reason for that. Like I said, I ignore political debates and anyone else is free to do that. It shouldn’t result in genuine arguments. And if you feel it will, any player has the ability to report it and Pink House will deal with it if it’s genuinely rule breaking.

Distilling Miss Bimbo's original post down to it's 4 Core Items of Action:

So what can i/we do to encourage the fostering of democracy?

1a. "If no one stands against the incumbent prime ximbo then I will automatically be installed as Prime Ximbo for 1 term."
1.b "So I will be president and Prime ximbo for 1 term and until there are at least 2 proper healthy candidates vying for power."

2a. "Secondly I am going to foster a more left-right political axis in Ximboland
2b. ...by installing myself as Prime Ximbo every 3rd term until such a time when democracy is thriving."
2c. "I will be encouraging and protecting the freedom of speech in Ximboland
2d. "by scrapping all 'hate- crime' laws...[and implementing]...
2e. " the fewest restrictions and laws around speech."

3. "...we are going to introduce news feeds so that we can follow the Ximbos we like of a similar political persuasion."

4. "...allow Ximbos to create images and posts that only their followers can see and that they can charge to be seen thus we will monetise creators."

I'd like to discuss all 4 of these specific issues...
It seems that I have at least a partial, but not definitive answer to my question about one item in particular: 

***Item 2e.***

Did 2e go into effect immediately, the second it was posted?
It certainly appears that it did, based on the conversation so far.
A clarification from the relevant PH officers or Ministers would be helpful, at this time.  Specifically:
Are you going to ban me - or anyone else - for expressing my/their views on this issue - and our opinion of Miss Bimbo?

It’s already been said by Miss Bimbo that it is not in effect, after Kirsty asked. Miss B said she/he didn’t want to disrupt the flow of Bleckys term and this would be implemented when he/she was in power.
I’d  also like to add that State Ministers, Fashion Police, Prime Bimbo etc were unaware of this post and are just as curious as the rest of you to see how it pans out.

1) Would you ever say 'i agree everyone should be able to say how they feel, and that includes far right leaning ppl too.' ?
2) Does this 'i think there should be rules in place to stop any dogmatic rhetoric tho' apply only to far-right rhetoric or any dogmatic rhetoric, including far-left ones?

Questions ^^ for anyone who would like to discuss, not Princess specifically, she just made good points to contemplate on.
