teamcoltra Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Hello fellow members of the great planet Bob! You may not know me, but my name is TeamColtra of Geeks Paradox. I am here to set forth a proclamation of existence for the new alliance of Cor Aut Mors which is Latin for Heart or Death. You see the Romans believed that you should follow your morals, values, loyalty, integrity (heart) or you should not exist at all. That is what Cor Aut Mors will uphold, this is the foundation of our moral code. Our flag was created with our values in mind. The pure white Bob being guarded by the pen and sword; The five stars representing the five senators who will work together to make sure our alliance is stable, and that we remember we are looked up to by the alliance, and shall not let them down; The blue bar at the top recognizing our primary color sphere, and paying our respect to it, wishing it a peaceful future; The red at the bottom honors the many alliances who have been built, and collapsed in the past whether right or wrong, their actions have shaped us into what we are today. We come together, to act as one, to be one, and to stand up for each other in all situations. To be more than an alliance of nations, but be a consanguinity of brothers and sisters. We have set our government up to be able to look out for each other and always allow the best man for the job do that job, while blending democracy with the security for one man to do his job without fear of politics. With this structure we shall be able to take care of our membership if we have 20 members or 2000 members. Below is our charter, it may not be long, but it is also never complete, it is there to be built off of, not to be an archaic shrine. Section 1: Reason of Being1. The members of the Cor Aut Mors are here to be a one people, living under the rule of all, by investing some power in the few. 2. Economy is a very important aspect in todays age, and to be on top, we must maintain an active economy. 3. Establishment of a new kind of Alliance based on family values, with a fun and active forum, IRC, and other communication tools. Section 2: Admission 1. Membership is granted to those who prove they have a true desire to join the alliance. While special circumstances, and “Promotional Periods” exist, members must wait on a list for an available spot to open up to join Cor Aut Mors, invitations from senate level and higher will be accepted as their faith in your willingness to partake in our alliance, and you can be instantly granted access. In addition every member has 3 passes which allow a “Fast Track Approval Process” which allows the applicant to be asked a few questions prior to acceptance, but there will be no waiting period. 2. When signing up for Cor Aut Mors you will be able to put Cor Aut Mors-Applicant as your Alliance Affiliation, and take part in most parts of the forum, with your signing of your agreement to uphold the charter. 3. Upon acceptance into the Cor Aut Mors you will be awarded 15M, and special access to our OneAlliance webware. Giving you an instant upper hand in all CN related matters from foreign affairs, to nation management. Section 3: Structure 1. Senate – The upper chamber of legislation, There will be 5 senators who will act as the voice of the membership and is entrusted in making high level decisions, including charter rewrite; war declarations; treaties; and mid to high security issues. The senate will be voted in once every 3 months. a. Senate will have a Senate Head who will be able to act as a lesion between the High Counsel and Senate. This member is voted on by the sitting senators, and shall remain head until the next election. In the event of any tie the Senate Head’s vote counts as two. S/he will also be in charge of maintaining senate activities, and arranging senatorial campaigns. b. Senate members will be in charge of approving assembly suggestion and putting them up for vote. They may also designate low security items such as treaties to be voted upon by the assembly. c. Any alliance which chooses to merge with Cor Aut Mors and adopt our name as their own, will be awarded a seat in Senate, this seat will stay in effect indefinably unless seen unnecessary by senate. 3. High Counsel – Executive branch, the High Counsel is in charge of carrying out the will of Senate, there are 4 branches of the High Counsel; Foreign Affairs; Internal Affairs; Economic Affairs; and Wartime Affairs. These counsel members are appointed by the Alliance Voice, and approved by senate. 4. Alliance Voice – High executive leader, acts as the Community Organizer of the alliance. Though bound by senate law, the Alliance Voice is afforded the ability to manage the internal operations of the alliance, with powers that effect the intra-workings of the alliance. Alliance voice is voted on by general membership every 3 months. Section 4: Rules and Laws 1. This document is “living” meaning it may be modified at any time with a 77% majority in senate. 2. There are certain laws we bound our self too which shall be listed below, however, please keep in mind, the best rule is the “Golden Rule” don’t be a jerk to people because you don’t want them to be a jerk to you. 3. A High Counsel member may not be a senator, nor may be a counsel leader for another department. 4. No member shall be turned away due to sex, sexual orientation, creed, color, religion, or handicap. We are all one people and shall accept each for who we are. 5. Don’t get yourself in trouble with other alliances… If our Foreign Affairs minister has to do anything to get you out of trouble, you will be reprimanded. 6. Do not declare war on any one, at any time, unless approved or ordered by a superior. Rouge attacks will NOT be tolerated and there is a “1 Strike Your Out” policy regarding it, unless you can gain the blessing of the alliance you attacked that we can keep you. 7. Monthly the Senate, High Counsel, and Alliance Voice will come out with a statement known as the “State of Affairs” which will truthfully announce what is happening within the alliance, with the great announcements and the pitfalls we have run into. This will also be an open forum for Compliments, Complaints, and Suggestions. 8. There shall be a way that members can anonymously make comments, complaints, and suggestions that can be read by the senate. 9. Cor Aut Mors is a Cross Coloured alliance, with emphasis on blue, if you would like to be part of another color, that is fine, but it will limit how we can assist you economically (such as trade guilds). Section 5 Time Line: The charter shall be implemented based on membership under the following criteria: Section 2 - 1 shall not be enacted until the membership is at a level of 150 members. Section 3 - 3 shall be enacted upon membership reaching 25 members Section 3 - 4 shall be enacted upon the 3rd month of the alliance during the first official vote. Until the alliance's membership reaches the levels stated above, the senate shall appoint the high counsel and act as the Alliance Voice, as one body. A special thank you needs to go out to The Foreign Division who have put their faith in the development of this alliance and have offered their protection of us until we are developed enough to provide our own protection. Please if you haven't go check out their forums currently at http://z6.invisionfree.com/Foreign_Division and their IRC #TFD. We would love to see all of you take part in our forums over at http://www.corautmors.com or you may also visit our IRC channel at #CAM on irc.coldfront.net. We shall all have great futures together and I hope that if you have any questions, comments, and/or concerns you will apporach me as soon as possible so I can discuss the matter with you promptly. Thanks Senator TeamColtra of Geeks Paradox Founding Member of Cor Aut Mors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lusitan Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Sub tuum praesidium Treaty TFD-CAM Protectorate Preamble: In the interest of friendship, protection, and guidance The Foreign Division and Cor Aut Mors, enter to the following protectorate agreement. Chapter I - Sovereignty: The Foreign Division and the Cor Aut Mors recognize each other as sovereign and separate alliances. Chapter II - Respect: The two Alliances shall have the determination and good faith to prevent disputes from arising. In case disputes on matters directly affecting them should arise, especially disputes likely to disturb peace and harmony, they shall refrain from the threat or use of force and shall at all times settle such disputes among themselves through friendly negotiations. Additionally, Cor Aut Mors is expected to behave respectfully towards any alliance or individual. Chapter III - Protection and Defense: The Foreign Division will consider an attack on Cor Aut Mors as an attack on The Foreign Division. The Foreign Division will attempt to resolve such an issue on the behalf of the Cor Aut Mors through diplomatic means before force is ever used. While not required, Cor Aut Mors may come to the defense of The Foreign Division at their choosing if the need for mutual defense is ever requested. Chapter IV - Aid and Progress: The Foreign Division will aid the Cor Aut Mors to help them grow as an alliance. Cor Aut Mors will have access to the Technology Market of The Foreign Division for the lasting of this treaty. The Foreign Division will nominate one advisor who will work directly with the Cor Aut Mors Government in the process of alliance structuring and day-to-day work. When that objective is attained the Advisor will remain as consulter to the Cor Aut Mors Government. The Advisor will hold no legal or executive power as defined in Chapter I. Chapter V - Aggression and Foreign Affairs: Cor Aut Mors agrees to alert The Foreign Division if they have decided to go on the offensive towards another alliance within 48 hours of doing so. Cor Aut Mors will never declare war on another alliance without first discussing it with The Foreign Division leadership. For the duration of this treaty Cor Aut Mors will abstain from the practice known as Tech Raiding as well as from performing individual aggressive wars. Cor Aut Mors will also not engage in espionage operations against any alliance. Cor Aut Mors will also contact The Foreign Division before signing any treaties with other alliances and will discuss such decisions with them. Cor Aut Mors will also inform The Foreign Division should they face any Foreign Affairs incident. Chapter VI - Disbandment: In the sad event that the Cor Aut Mors decides it can no longer function as an alliance, Cor Aut Mors agrees to contact The Foreign Division leadership as soon as possible. If possible disbandment is an option, Cor Aut Mors agrees to contact The Foreign Division within 24 hours to discuss other options. The Foreign Division shall do everything they can to help Cor Aut Mors to avoid such a fate. Chapter VII - Cancellation or Upgrade: Both parties agree to give each other 48 hour notice before cancelling this treaty. Violation of any of the above mentioned clauses will deem this treaty as void.

Haven for Peace Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 I can honestly say that I have not. You should taste it first, then decide whether or not you're anti whaling. Never judge, man... never judge before you try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin McDonald Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Oh, Coltra. Congrats on your new alliance, I mean that sincerely. That said, the first time one of your members questions your every move to the point where you contemplate expelling them, you may be able to hear my laughter Good luck.
