What Abuse Of Power Looks Like
Winston Hope Smith
Firstly let me tell you Congress HAS NOT APPROVED ANY LIST FOR MPPs, as required by the Constitution, prior to accepting MPPs ...
Our dictator knows this he helped write the Constitution and forced it through Congress in his term as CP.
From our constitution (found Here )
Now last 2 votes by the dictator, Moomoohead... (found Here)
As Moomoohead said in his last article...we need to be very careful who we elect as Dictator!
Comments
...awaiting the usual abuse from the usual people
Abuse!
I seem to recall something about a "Common Sense Clause".
While it's morphed somewhat from it's original design its core is still embedded in articles of the Constitution:
Section 2.04 When a dictator violates the rules of their post:
(a) It will be subjective choice if a dictator goes rogue of not, Some rules might be broke malicly and sometimes by accident / in case of emergency.
(b) The process for determining the intent of the dictator actions will fall on three of the top five party presidents. They will use discretion over response to any transgression. If they think the dictator needs to be removed for not following the rules then they will contact the MoF who will place all government money out of reach of the Dictator before anything else happens.
(c) The MoF will initiate a 24 hour discussion followed by a 24 hour vote for no confidence in the dictator. The congress vote has to be greater than 66% to pass.
(d) The leader of the Irish Army will initiate the revolution after the congress vote.
So run along now and get the majority of top 5 leaders to back your proposal to remove dictator.
And should you actually manage that, we will refer you to:
Section 1.03 Impeachment
(a) The MoF *CAN* call for one impeachment once a week if asked by a member of congress. This is to ensure all money is safe before any votes.
Geez, I wonder who on the Constitution Committee had the foresight to protect the government from your stupid shit?
😁
I did not call for impeachment...Moo resigned
What has that got to do with due process of our law?
Always look on the bright side of life.
Fun fact: We didn't pay for either of these MPPs.
WE GOT THEM FOR FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
...and your point is that breaking the law is ok because you can do it free?
I suppose you do have form in unscrupulous gameplay don't you...
Nogin put it well here in the comments http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/show-some-love-for-sluagh-2564189/1/20
my vote. it's a fact indeed.
Please spell it out for me. Are you saying that from Section 1.01 above (a) did not happen, (b) did not happen, (c) did not happen and (d) did not happen? Are you saying that the dictator just chose to accept the MPPs and there was no discussion?
Section 1.01a happened.. none of the others terms were met.
A list was suggested as a starting point for discussion, some initial discussion, but nothing was agreed.
Even the previous CC warned that the dictator can't now pass MPPs.
The CC is MIA
The DCC has personal issues which I fully understand but he already stated he was not going to replace the CC only do some background work.
I repeatedly warned about this and asked the Executive to make the dictator aware he cannot pass MPPs. Even if they didn't (and to be honest they (except for Conway) are also MIA in Congress) Moo knows the rules and choose to ignore them.

Dictator - noun - a ruler with total power over a country, typically one who has obtained power by force.
Seems that the dictator in eRep can do exactly as he or she pleases, just like the definition above states.
You can have all the rules you want, but he with the vote rules.
Hail Moo! Dictator indeed!
It may to some not seem like a big deal. But change is always wanted at one point or another and the people or dail should determine the change in geo-politics ie which MPPs we sign. What if Serbia wanted to pay our half and we therefore signed an MPP? What if Serbia was on the MPP list? Well the list wasn't agreed on.
Now you say that this is different because the nations are friends and Serbia is not. Sorry but while I DO see Mexico as a ally I DO NOT see Turkey as such and would've voted no had the vote come down to dail mechanics.
During the time I voted for these MPP, there was no CC who is supposed to hold vote with congress and the MoFA was away for personal reasons. Mexico proposed the MPP with out my knowledge, I only had 11 hours to vote on it when I say it. I paid the 10K and voted yes. We worked closely with them 3 months ago when we both occupied by Argentina. We got free and they did not. I say all there tanks hitting for us the last 3 months. I thought it would of been an insult to them to vote no, that is why I paid for it and voted yes. I have also offered to pay for an AS to help get Mexico.
Our CP arranged for the Turkey MPP and had them pay for it.
WHS is great at name calling for the people trying to help the country and does absolutely nothing else. His attacks lead people not wanting to be a part of government anymore and poor communication with congress. I do not read the congress thread anymore because I can not be bothered reading 200 useless posts from him about nothing but insulting people. That is not why I play games. If someone paid me I would not be dictator again and will probably leave Ireland in two weeks when this term is up. I would be very happy if some one else wanted to do the job tomorrow.
Suagh asked if someone wanted to do the CC job and no one volunteered, not surprising based on how the past ones were treated, no one wants attack articles like this wrote about them for just trying to do the right thing.
So as I predicted so many months ago, you ditched the constitution when it became inconvenient...no need to answer the answer its a Yes as you just admitted it. I was attacked and abused for saying that would happen and no doubt will be again but as usual I am/was right.
And you wonder why many here have NO confidence in you, Don etc. You play this game your way brushing aside anyone who does not fit your agenda at any given moment, changing rule books on a whim.
It was your constitution ffs...It was your pride and joy and you ditchedit and ignored it once it was "not convenient" I asked the Executive to advise you and when you made the first illegal vote... I could not ignore the second.
by the way unlike those who ACTUALLY insult people I have posted ALL my posts in the last Congress threads. People can read back and see the lies you just told.
No Moo you just did a classic "Do what I say not what I do"
You even posted an article reminding us lesser beings of our Constitutional responsibilities wrt the upcoming Dictator election.
But that's for us lesser mortals but when you brake the rules and this is then pointed out instead of owning up you just join the horde you run with now and attack, abuse and deflect.
but he has a point moomoo albeit the constitution seemed to deal with us proposing mpp's and not others proposing mpp's.
If that the best we can do... Make up a loophole?
oversight not loophole. loophole would legitimize his actions which is not what i am saying. oversight because an obvious scenario was not covered
Moo, thank you for all you do. I really do not know how you deal with all this. You are appreciated and I do hope you will sty in Ireland and find some peace and fun. It would be so nice if we had a block feature in this game for the constant troublemakers..
If your love for Ireland is as big as your mouth we would be much stronger country.
Government asked if there's someone who wants to be CC, we asked you to take the role and do what consitution says, you rejected it as it would mean you wouldn't be able to call someone names and abuse people.
Since there's no CC appointed by Government (literally no one wants that role) there was no voting. Moo payed for both MPP's and yet you call him names. One MPP costs more than you spent for eIreland in your entire eLife you pathetic creature
Conway asked me and I told him why would I as Congress is ignored now...you have no concept of democracy - None. It is your way of.... actually it is just your way isn't it!
Good job WHS, we still have like 5 people who actually does something for the country, make them leave the game too, you will ruin the whole community, the whole country...keep up the good work.
We should all thank moo for paying for both MPP's with our allies.
Maybe we would of if he had followed due process.
If by the five people you mean destroying what we had as a community then dude your name is number one followed by your minions
LOL
You guys still play the game like this.....
no, your just watching the slow bus roll by here
I have asked the top 3 PP to appoint an intern dictator or hold a new election ASAP. I resign.
Following this decision, CrOmega has decided to leave eIreland.
Victory!
RtK you didn't actually expect Don to actually keep his word did you?
His minions are voting him in as Dictator as we speak.

You really need a hobby besides imaginary politics.

It's harsh calling Don that
i can see that
http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/abusing-moomoohead-2564945/1/20
Out-of-game legislation always does more harm than good.
long time no see James.
How you keeping?
I'm grand MrC. Keeping fit?
eating burritos and drinking guinness.
so yeah, not gaining weight as im pooping it all. thats fit right?
Very sad. In your prime you were half greek god, half bogger.
as a man of dublin, i am offended being called a bogger. cas would not approve either.
Fair enough. Only cas can call people boggers with any authority. I over-reached.

3. mpped countries were on the list.
4. so they passed 🙂
government asked many times for a cc but not any congressmen approved it. please go and play with the sand guys. its not really funny.
As I said above
The budget was given
A list was suggested
Your point 4 is one BIG FAT LIE
i really dont know what you trying to do dude. get a job or find yourself a hobby please.
So you tell a big Lie and you are then asking me what I'M trying to do?
I began to read and thought I could vote, reply to other comments. Boy was I in for a surprise as things escalated.
I don't think people should set up rules (constitution) and then ignore them. I don't think people should put themselves forward for positions in government and then not bother playing (nor should others put them forward if they are unsure of their commitment). I don't think if I complain a lot about others that if I am given an opportunity of doing their job I should refuse that opportunity. I don't think that as a mature adult it shows character throwing my toys out of the pram when things don't go my way.
I think it is very sad that the enthusiasm and ability of a number of people in the community (no matter what side they are on) can't be harnessed to make eIreland a better place with more cooperation and less nastiness
I guess I am very disappointed at how things are turning out at the moment, but I will keep on playing at the low level that I play.
For the record Don Crota messaged me prior to his election. He is a Cromega member, also aOmega member. He asked for my support in running for CC. I told him I could not give him support as I knew nothing about him. But by not voting against him I would give him a chance. He promised to be fair and open and neutral. This is me, the player everyone accuses of not allowed others to have different opinions letting a new player have a shot. His first act was appointing Conway as CC. He then told me he wanted me to do this job but messaged me after already appointing Conway. Another Cromega caught out on a lie. Then he disappears. Read into this what you want.
This is what we are dealing with here. People who cannot or won't play the game fairly and shift and change rules to suit whatever agenda they have at that exact moment in time.
This is why I am so disappointed in Moo & Elite before him. Because I expected better from them, I will accept Elite made a few mistakes and will not do so again. He has said he wants to be CC again. I'll vote for him. Moo instead of admitting he erred is running away. That is his choice and I wish him well.
Don and his minions are wedded to cheating and will always do it.
The rest of us can do better!
