the dream began as I received consecutive notifications, in which my karma surged to -14. Team Rocket Elite contacted me on AIM after this happened, and I did not immediately respond as I had been preparing an appeal brief for one specific post, which had cost me 10 karma points. the post was over two years old and consisted of 'f*** you' to OmarsComing. my argument was, that because the post was so old the points would have rolled off by now, and etc. but once my karma soared up to -14 it was clear that I had to struggle through other means.
and so I got to talking to TRE, and we hammered out a plan. though the decision whether or not to perma-ban me was entirely his, we would take a vote of the Board 8 Community. if less than 1/2 of the Community felt I should be allowed to stay, I would be banned. if between 1/2 and 2/3 felt I should be allowed to stay, the decision would officially again rest with TRE, but barring extraordinary circumstances he would still go through with the ban. and if I got the support of more than 2/3, he would allow me to stay after a five-day suspension.
part II later.
