Introduction, answer and future

by srg91
I didn't intent to make this newspaper originally, but due to some unfortunate circumstances, I decided to make this newspaper.
The main reason for my article is this:
srg91-incompetent-leader
Be sure to read that before reading this.
Although it was an aimed troll from icey1174, it actually got me to think about what I have done during my term, and if I should run for the next term.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First of all, a little about myself. I am srg91, I was introduced into the Australian community after I got contacted by Br0adside after I posted a comment on one of AW's articles
I was introduced onto IRC and learned much from talking to others and in about one week I was determined to help this country out by serving as a Government official.
Days before the senate elections for April term, I talked to Preditorian and he helped me to publish an article.
Srg91 for senate
Response was amazing despite I have only been here for almost a month. I was voted into the top 5 articles of the day, a feat which I have never accomplished again(well I haven't published anymore articles since).
With that article, and about 1 month worth of experience, I was voted in to senate.
It was my first term and my first run, and I was ranked 4th overall with an amazing 16 votes.
I never really knew who my supporters were, but I am sure that they gave me that chance to prove I could make a difference to the senate, and have a say for the people.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
One month has passed since my last article, and now, I am wondering if I should run for senate again. Icey1174 has asked me a really good question, what have I done? Have I given all I could give to those who put me into power? Or have I neglected the roll I was given?
I shall attempt to answer this question:
First of all, I can not say I have been the driving force behind every policy we have made in the senate, but I have actively debated on many of those to share my view and new perspectives on those topics.
I also can not tell you which laws/ proposals I have helped to make into law, there has been too many to name, but I can tell you that I have debated in most of them and I have taken each of the proposals seriously.
Now you may think, hold on, you told us you did this and that , but where is the proof??
My proof lies on the forums, both external (public viewed proposals) and internal (the sensitive ones)
If you do not believe me, go and check them out.
I guess the only real answer I can give out to supporters, haters and all alike is that: Although I can not say I have huge power in my role as senator of NSW, I have given my 100% for all senate debates, senator jobs as well as my attempt to answer all eAustralian citizen queries. (apart from the recent icey1174 question regarding Centrelink, I do not know about its expenditure, and please do not say its "Our Tax payer money" when you do not pay tax for Black Market housing trading.)
I personally believe that I lived up the expectations of those who voted for me, as I have spend my time each day to give 100% back to the eAustralian community.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The future:
I am not sure if I wish to run for another term as a senator. I have gotten Pros from many of my friends and supporters in PM, MSN and IRC, however there are also those who are calling my resignation as they believe I have done a bad job.
So I am going to let eAustralia decide. If you believe I should have a second run, simply make a comment saying voted up (PMs and such are ok with me too) or something similar, and actually vote this article up. I am really interested to find out how you guys think of how I went last term. And please, no double or triple votes from Orgs. I want to hear what eAustralians wants and not something 5g can buy.
Thank you for reading.

I have only one thing to say & that people have a right to critise eGovernmental policies that they believe is incorrect.
Well Done Srg91.
Hopefully specific trolls will read this and understand this is just a Game.
People do have the right to critise eGovernment policies, but it is about approaches.
Think about it in this way, if I were to approach you about some aspects of your policy say on "woman", I could make an article sayin "AW is sexist and the low of the low", obviously you are not going to receive it well and see it as an attack on yourself.
Hence already, your trying to think about becoming defensive and think of my faults, and try and catch out my mistakes to defend yourself better. Straight away there will be a clash and ideas will be formed.
However, if I were to PM you about why you think woman are blah blah blah, I probably get a better answer straight away, as my approach comes with the one of curiosity and not aimed to attack you.
Even if I disagree with your views on woman, I think the chances are you will be more likely to consider my point of view, instead of the 50+ comments that gets no one anywhere on an article.
No Srg91 isn't a coward, he isn't hiding behind orgs to flame people.
AP, please, dont start at on my article 🙁
I love you but... 🙁
Please run for congress Srg91, we need active people who are willing to put themselves out there, debate ideas on their merits and put in the time if we want eAustralia to grow.
My Apologies Srg91.
I would really like to see you run for congress again.
You have already proven yourself in a number of situations, and your knowledge in both economics and politics is long-needed in eAustralia if we are to grow.
Haven't been here long, but your certainly one of the community that stands out. Active in the chat, and your passion and dedication are clear to see.
Good enough for me 🙂
Whilst debate and controversy can be a good and healthy part of the democratic system, I think that the pernicious personal attacks are counter-productive and, frankly, juvenile. AW has a valid point, sgr91 has a valid complaint but really, we have to ask what is best for the country? Empassioned, caring leaders who are willing to commit themselves to the process of building this country should be supported. Stick with it srg91 but be prepared for the criticism. Let's just hope that we can ALL keep it in perspective ! As Pred says, it is just a game afterall.
Good article m8 😉 Put AW in his place.
Srg91. Run. You've been doing a great job.
'nuff said.
ahahhah aw you should leave this place your becomeing a joke sometimes
What on earth are you talk about Br0ad & Jay?
AW is right, he is being constructive in this article
run for congress We won't make you treasurer Promise...
humm yea i had been a rude sorry aw
Run. Democracy depends on choices; if you don't run you deny eAussies the option to vote either for or against you.
I can think of no reason why you shouldnt run again!
If you enjoy congress - run again 🙂
Enthusiasm is something that rubs off on others and by having people being enthusiastic about an issue or idea it can have a snowball effect and cause great things. if you are enjoying being a senator, have the time to fill the duties and are dealing as best you can then why not continue to run. as you get more experience you can only become wiser and more accurate in your dealings.
or you can become bitter and twisted.
@Srg: Good article, but to be honest, pointless. You have taken to heart too many comments by people that mean "NOTHING". Icey is a coward and a lowlife, he has, as I have said before, single handedly destroyed an industry in Australia, would you really call that patriotic and consider he has the best interests of the country at heart, I certainly wouldn't. Ignore him, his comments are worthless. Add to that, your a Member of the AIP, which means your an Independent. Independents rarely hold alot of power, they aren't a peak body in politics, but you have made yourself heard in the Senate, the Senate does listen, thats all you can do and thats what being an independent is about. Nobody can say Independents can't cause change, it just takes more time, look at my own political record 😃
@AW: "I have only one thing to say & that people have a right to critise eGovernmental policies that they believe is incorrect."
Correct, they do, but they are only really taken seriously if those that critisise are prepared to step up to the line and do something about it. You and Icey have done what for Australia? Answer, Didily squat. You sit behind your little newspaper, make accusations and yet still do not have the balinies to get of you lazy arses and do anything or offer anything that could even be considered constructive, all your comments, including Icey's tend to be destructive. What good does that do the Country???? At least you claim you have finally decided to actually run for the Senate, unless you chicken out of that as well.
"No Srg91 isn't a coward, he isn't hiding behind orgs to flame people."
Oh, like Icey Does regularly? LOLOLOLOLOLOL, what does that say about him AW? He is one of your biggest supporters you realise?
VOTE SRG91 FOR SENATE. 😃
Hopefully this article will stop "some people" from auto-flaming everything in government.
Voted.
Yes run again Srg you are a delight and enjoy our conversations. eAus is a better place with you in it and even better with you in senate. Keep up the passion. I salute you. 😉
I've certainly seen you as one of the more stand out ppl in government this term, whilst not necessarily agreeing with all your views.
I think you've seen enough support here but already, but go again.
The fact that you ask yourself such questions when others wouldn't speak volumes.
Haters gonna hate.
