i don't think you'll care enough to prepare pxfc themes and crazes as a PX, SweetasNuts, you gave us all a proof of that during the 1 month after cherri resigned. you did absolutely nothing. if non-default pxfc themes and crazes are gone, the last fun aspects of the site will be gone...

edit: thank god we'll still have SMs and state contests (unless you remove SM roles too)

no offense, chris, but i don't think you or anyone on the admin team actually have a "holistic view" of the site. you aren't active on it and don't understand the needs of the userbase, as evidenced by your utter refusal to implement suggestions from dedicated users about how to improve the site. none of team bimbo is actually truly qualified to speak for the needs of the site, in my opinion, and if you think you are you will only be doing what you think is helpful and not what's actually going to improve your finances.

i've said this before and i'll say it again—you need to hire more people. you need to pay more people in order to have a site that runs well, and ideally, you need to hire an active player who is already familiar with the site. neither you nor any of the rest of team bimbo keep on top of what's going on the site or seem to know how the features work or who the main volunteers are. the idea to split workload and payment between different ministers is not strictly bad because the PX role has been very overworked and spread thin for some time now, but this doesn't read like you rewarding your dedicated volunteers. it feels like you're BLAMING your volunteers for YOUR business failings. if you're not making the money you'd like to make, it is absolutely no one's fault but your own, because across time and specifically since february we have given you numerous, numerous ideas for how to improve your site for not just the users but also yourself financially and you haven't done any of that. i suspect this is partly due to the fact that you do not pay team bimbo enough for them to adjust even small quality of life stuff, much less some of the huge coding overhauls that need to be done.

like scacey said, when you were PX you just stayed with the default pxfc theme, not including suggesting for and voting for themes, something the userbase expects and loves. if you had even added a new theme that would at least be INTERESTING but you just let it roll, no changes, no participation. you don't have a holistic view! you do not understand your website, your users, your staff, or what you need for this website to thrive. if you want to be the big prime ximbo name at the top of the page, fine. but let someone else run pxfc or crazes or something, jeez.

I would like for you to confirm the dates by which we can expect the new electable ministerial roles to be available for senators from the politics tab of profiles and what exact tools those roles will have, INCLUDING the potential diamond stipend you mentioned. i'm happy to email or dm with you and would even be open to an actual phone call if you would like to discuss what actual tools and numbers are required for these roles to function. certain changes to these roles could legitimately benefit your site enormously in the long run but it would be great if you listened to the users about what those changes need to be. again, i will literally get on a phone call with you if that's what it takes.

TLDR: please provide confirmation of the dates these new ministerial roles will be added for the election (and the PX role removed from the politics profile, if you are doing that) and what exact tools each role will provide. if you are open to suggestions, i am open to dm, email, or have an actual phone call, because changes made at this step in the process could improve the website in drastic ways. also, are you hiring? and if not, why not? you really, really, really need it.

Thanks for feedback - I will be working closely with a team of 4 x ministers and as such our workload will be spread between 5 of us all. So you dont need to worry about that.

Thanks for feedback. Yes I agree with you. No one in teh HQ has a holistic view but equally none of you players has a holistic view either. Therefore we need a team. A balanced team of elected people and appointed people. We cant do it alone and neither can you. As such having team of 5 that is spread across different roles and anchored by me will hopefully allow us all to thrive. 
This is the next evolution of our democracy and hopefully it will take us to great heights. 
The best thing you can do to help Pollyx is to stand and win for Fashion minister and to work closely with me in the Pink House to get things done and improve things.
More to follow later to day on minister roles.

Still democratic. We have now morphed into a form of semi democratic governance whereby 3 x ministers are voted for and 2 x positions are not. In future I very much hope all 5 positions will be elected in. Thats the goal.

Since you’re answering questions Chris, can I ask whats going to be done with the voting and possible vote rigging? Since you’re allowing alt accounts and senator votes count 10x the regular - what’s to stop someone from creating numerous accounts, using senator grails for 10x the votes and voting themselves in as we just saw past state election with one of the state ministers? ( i personally don’t have an issue with said person, and if they’ve bothered to do all that work for it, and not be voted in bc they’re the favourite/liked player, but bc they dedicated the time for that, then that’s none of my business - at the end of the day YOU allowed that system to occur, and IT WAS eventually going to occur. food for thought, there were a ton of new accounts that happened to be from one state filling up the PH senator section btw, and then they’re gone the next day or so ) 

So again, does it matter who the majority of the player base vote for if this system is easily rigged? Or are you going to have devs look into these votes and adjust accordingly? Or if you have another way to clear that up, I’d appreciate knowing what will happen otherwise if i see it rigged again, then there really is no point in casting a vote if REAL player voices won’t be heard
