tef1
Tef1 has been one of the distinguished members of SFP. He has met a lot of dear friends. The party needs a lot of reforms. But the status quo is impossible to change. As a matter of fact, those in power are (sadly most are dear friends) are changing the rules to make the party as unfair as possible each day.
So, Tef1 has a proposal. In three days from today, Tef1 will form and temporary chair a new party. It is going to be THE REFORMED SOCIALIST PARTY or RSP.
Thank you for listening. Everyone is welcome to visit, should you choose too.
In the RSP:
1. NO FORUMS
2. NO Bribes
3. No forcing candidates off the ballot
4. A New discord will be created - link coming up on Saturday.
5. Election will be done in game ONLY.
6. Fun is mandatory.

An interesting concept. I wish you great luck.
Thanks.
You take it in the wrong way, but you're still in time to solve all your problems: join the American Military Party and have fun with us!
Feel the AMPs!
If this attempt is not attracting any members within a week or so, I will check your party for a month or so.
You're welcome, and if you can took us in congress again, you're great!
Sure, but let me try it on my own and we will see what happens. SFP needs major changes if they need me to return at any event though.
Tef, what are your specific complaints about the SPF?
There are about 10 members who have each other's back. Others are like the third wheel. Forums discriminates newer members. Yes, I have one but refuse to it because it is unfair. I have been offered about 50 grand for votes. NO Kidding, if only this is real life, I would have retired. I was forced out of the ballot last time. Now election are held in secret? Wow?
I would say that nearly every organization has it's core of members who protect each other and their grips on power. So, I am not at all surprised about that, just surprised that you think it might be otherwise.
Third wheels? Also no surprise there. I might be a third wheel if not for the fact that I am the wheel flying off the clown car. OOPS, no offense meant. 😃
still bad though.
I personally do not like the way the forums work. They are a major pain in the rear for me. But I wasn't aware of any discrimination. Could you give me some examples?
Never mind the fact that I already have an account to use but let say, I did not for the sake of argument. Two steps have to have happened before I can vote. 1. I need to register and wait 24 hours. So it is too late now. Plus the leadership has to approve me before I can vote. So, the leadership can delay the approval of members who seem rebellion to their power. #Unfair.
OK, so if I understand it, your party will admit every person who applies, and will do so on an immediate basis. That might lead to a situation where your party faces tactical infiltratio0n, but it may not be a problem in the long run. I would think any socialist party would be in favor of a bit of creative chaos, but I can understand their sense of self preservation. I think this is going to be a matter of experience and the use of wisdom in finding a fair balance.
I have sent all members of SFP that ran only ingame for congress the information how to declare their run on our forums so they could be in the primaries. I have been watching my mail the whole day. One registered and I had activated the account within 30 minutes and gave access to the members only forums too. Access is given with 24 hours normally, but it can happen faster, there is no 24 hours waiting time..
All members with forums access can be active on our primaries until it closes at the 23rd.
it is not fair.
you did it to me only. but it is cool.
As to the charge that the party encourages bribes, I have to say that I have never seen anything like that. You already know my views on vote buying. I do not approve. When I have seen bribes being offered, it has been by a member running, and I think disapproved by the party per se. I take into consideration the fact that someone wants to bribe their way into office, and always ask myself why. I do not take, nor do I offer bribes, so, for me, the best policy is to ignore the issue and hope the voters know better.
I am unsure of any policy where voting takes place in secret. Could you explain how that is happening? Secret ballots are fundamental to a functioning and fair system of politics as well as government. I know you understand this concept, but your message speaks of something quite a bit different. I would be happy to know about the problem.
Who bribed you tef1?
In the 7 plus years I have been in SFP I have never been offered money by anyone seeking any position in the Party or seeking Congress.
Maybe you should invite Chickenguys to join your new Party.
Shut you poisonous mouth, idiot!
hi Phail
back off Phil, I am not in the mood for your BS.
You are a real tough guy behind a keyboard, but in RL you would not dare to talk to people like that.
Not so good for keeping teeth in your mouth.
I'm visiting the States in March 2018. Wanna meet me, shiloh13? If yes, make an appointment with your dentist, if you have one. Because white-trash like you rarely have medical cover or funds.
Phil...is it that time of the month or what?
You are by far the vilest most foul-mouthed citizen I have ever met. Your momma must have slapped you across the face just for being alive. Bet she held your head in the toilet and gave you swirlies too amuse herself.
My mother is deceased, better stop now or I will think really hard how to punish you. You are East Coast, right?
Now you are sounding like Pizza the Hut Gipper Reagan. I live in WNY in the Village of Brocton bring your tired ass on over here...be sure you bring your lunch so I can steal it. Bring your momma with you....
Redneck! 😃
Not practical, but best of luck.
3 members already and did not even created it YET.
I'm not trying to dump on you or anything I mean no malice. However I mean not practical in you would need over 67 members to bump We The People out of their Top 5 spot to get on the ballot as a new party.
That is the least of Tef's concern. I agree with your concern but not looking forward to that. At least yet.
Who was forced off the ballot? How? When?
Nobody was forced of the ballot for the congress. For the PP election it was asked to retire from the party president elections (without any threat or bribe) to bring the vote between the two main candidates (chickenguys and TheNorm). That is all what happened.
So, you term limited yourself. Seems reasonable.
Tef1 was. Through messages and last PP election.
This leaves the issue of how the rules are being changed. I haven't been involved in party politics for long, so I am unaware. Which rules are being changed?
Let's address these claims/demands, shall we?
1. NO FORUMS
---How do you propose we hold fair Congressional primaries without the use of a forum? How do you propose we have in-depth discussions about the Party without the use of a forum? How do you propose we organize ourselves without the use of a forum? A forum is an easy-access option for us to make decisions together. All members are invited to join, there's a link on the My Party page. Quite frankly, if someone's looking to get involved and aren't willing to move their mouse and click a few keys probably isn't that serious about getting involved to begin with.
2. NO Bribes
---The only people bribing in this party are Chickensguys and any goons he may have.
3. No forcing candidates off the ballot
---No-one has EVER been forced off the ballot in the SFP. It's actually impossible to do that with game mechanics. What HAS happened is, in order to combat a PTO threat, people have been asked to drop out and back the front runner. Nobody's obligated to do so.
4. A New discord will be created - link coming up on Saturday.
---For what purpose? There's a perfectly good Party Discord already.
5. Election will be done in game ONLY.
---The only "election" that happens outside of www.erepublik.com are Congress primaries that dictate the order of the in-game Congress list. If we keep this to 100% in-game, the only person who would have input in the priority list would be the Party President - pretty undemocratic if you ask me.
Conclusion:
Quite frankly, this strikes me as poorly thought-out opportunism. You have no real complaints, you're just taking minor issues (that aren't really issues) and warping them to fit a narrative you've invented. I've lost considerable respect for you over the past few days which will take quite a bit to regain. You're beginning to behave similarly to Chickensguys.
You're an idiot, Dylan!
I agree with lots of your points Dillon. However tef1 said he will start a new party in three days. That he will start a discord channel for that party makes sense.
I think we should try to include the no forums users that are members of our party. It has been done before that people that hadn't access to our forums (willingly or not) that they could vote in the party feed and were included later on our forums. Also we could include the ones that run ingame for congress in our primaries by having them declaring in the party.
Great counter points and a Bullseye conclusion. A vote from me.
Don't leave us, stay and fight for righteousness and democracy!

No actually please leave as it is only Phil Harmony asking you to stay via his multi Rosa and we don't need any multies here or those trying to stir up controversy that just isn't there
Why did you jump on that wagon, Phil? I thought you are much smarter. So disappointing.
@Rosa you see now the sort of people in the SFP. Very disgusting
If you find SFP so disgusting then you really should leave and by all means take your new gf Rosa. Remember CG not all things appear as they seem.
You two can start your own Party. That would be so cool.
Hell maybe you could get ajay to join.
Wouldn't that be a hoot?
Bye, Bye
You are a nasty little bully, shiloh13. But never mind, I shall take care of you. When I'm done with you, you will cry for mercy!
please stop the insults and Kindly join RSP. Here is the link: https://www.erepublik.com/en/party/the-reformed-socialist-party-5420/1
Here we go... Phail is back, didn’t take long.
