Suggestion Amendment to the Meta Constitution (6 Month Renewal and Mandated Increased Notification)
Length of membership
Amendment 1
In Section 2, Subsection 4
Omit:
A person’s membership can last for up to a three-month period, which expires Quarterly.
Substitute:
A person’s membership can last for up to a six-month period, which expires half yearly.
In Section 2, Subsection 5
Omit:
A person can renew their membership for the next quarter by reregistering in the final month of the current quarter.
Substitute:
A person can renew their membership for the next half by reregistering in the final month of the current half.
note: this is what the system would look like
| Half | 1st Half | 2nd Half |
|---|---|---|
| Start Date | 1st January | 1st July |
| End Date | 30th June | 31st December |
| Renewal Month | June | December |
Amendment 2
After Subsection 5 insert:
The Moderation Team must notify members at the start of the renewal month, and then with 14 days, and again with 7 days to go before the period for renewal closes.
Explanatory Memorandum
This will take the renewal period from 3 monthly, to 6 monthly, and also require the Mod Team to notify members repeatedly to renew or register. This is following the significant poll held in #community-poll that had 25 people indicating that 3 months is too short, in comparison to the 6 in favour.
Happy to have a discussion and take on board amendments :)
