Default vB.org Union

Just an idea to throw off the top of my (already sleepy) head. A union for vB.org members, where the union would represent the general feelings of vB.org members and present those views to the staff. Should the union feel that it's proposals aren't being adequately considered, then strike action could be taken.

And just to clarify, it's an idea. I have no views on it as of yet.

This is getting tiring. Moronic even.

But just to clarify, it's just an idea. I have no views on it as of yet.



Good one.

Would a loud groan suffice as a response? I mean, really, a union?

I can envision it.. union splinter groups and sub-groups.

"The Union" (tm) rep walks around with a "Vote Boofo!" sign. He posts things like "The .Org is your friend," "Trust the Org!" and has ketchup stains on his tshirt.

"The Anti-Union Union" (tm) rep walks up with his "Vote Princeton, he'll protect you!" sign. He posts anti-AmyKhar messages, whines about how the community could be much better with real customer service reps and has mustard stains on his tshirt.

"The WeUsedToBeUnionButHateThemNow Union" (tm) goes around spreading propoganda about all other unions. They delete and lock posts from "The Anti-Union" (tm) folks and change their sigs to "The WeUsedToBeUnionButHateThemNow Union" (tm) links. Oh yeah, and they have mayo stains on their tshirts.

Will the madness never end?!?!

Krahl

...starts the "Dancing Banana Union" (tm) because he can. :banana: Oh yeah, and has a banana stain on his tshirt.
