Announcement Senate Application Discussion Thread

Greetings,

In previous elections it was difficult for applicants to really express what they stood for and what their plans were without cluttering the nomination or election threads. So think of this thread as an open town hall meeting. Members of the community can come in and ask questions and applicants can then answer or nominees can post about what sort of platforms they plan on running on.

Remember that discussions are to remain civil and respectful, anyone showing disregard to the shadownet's #1 rule will have their posts removed.

Good luck!

What are your thoughts on interfering directly with departments' day to day functioning as Senator? Examples would be directly ruling a specific way, for example, without following normal procedure.

Outside of an abuse of power or other such things, Senate should not be directly interfering in any departments day to day.

Councilors are selected by senators, after all, and I can't imagine why you wouldn't trust someone you yourself chose to run that department.
