Hi everyone.

It's been a while since the election, so I thought it was time to start to unroll what I would like for SAFF over the next 12 months.

The first thing I'm going to do is to appoint ozskipp as Second-In-Command. From the election thread, it was clear that our goals for SAFF were very similar, and I believe our combined efforts (along with everyone here) can help revitalise SAFF once more.

So the first thing that is being done is a complete review of the SAFF Code Of Conduct and SAFF Membership Rules. Once these have been reviewed, we'll be putting them up for SAFF to comment on.

Then, we'll see if we can increase our member base through some social and costume events. I intend to change the way SAFF has been run of recent times and I value all and any feedback from SAFF Members.

If anyone has any concerns or queries going forward, I'm only a PM away.

Now to get on with it!

Toddi

The first thing will be to abolish that pesky Senate....

Put regional govenors in direct control over their territories...

Not meaning to be a fire starter here, but i think it was made very clear that the CR has no power and is not in charge of anything. Effectively making the CR just a fancy message runner that contacts those who have a limited amount of power.

Sorry if it seems to the point, but this fact was made brutally clear and i am simply re-enforcing it.

The role of CR is one of leadership as is made clear here. Its not necessarily a question of 'power'.

You are correct, exactly so, and good that you brought this up actually. As far as I'm concerned, 2IC is just a name, no thought was behind the name (you can't best believe I'm not going to want to be called this). I'm just the helpful #2 fancy message runner wink Or, feel free to call me SAFF's little helper...hehe.

Nothing sinister, but when we've caught up or chatted online it was clear that we were both passionate about this thing, so whoever 'won' would have the help of the other for group related activities. No more, no less.

There's no 'power' or 'in charge' thing here...it's a message board + fan group (lifestyle choice perhaps, haha), not an occupation or a business here. All good happy

Well I for one would like to congratulate Toddi on his nomination as CR and I hope you'll be able to drop by your Canadian Sister Fanforce from time to time (that's for you too Meanders wink )

Ahhhh interesting. How come we've been told then that the CR position is purely acting as a center point for the fan force?? that's come from both yours, AD's and a few other people over the years.

mmmm

For Fan Forces such as yours where there is no charter defining officers and therefore only under the elected leadership of the person appointed Chapter Rep, the CR is in charge of the group. They are the person who reports to us the administrators, yes, but it's also their duty to help move the group forward and act as the leading figure. Unless stated otherwise in a club charter, the chapter rep has the same powers and responsibilities as a club president.
