in thread using the power of consideration responsibly (what is personal attack what is trolling, can you lose power to consider)

I am not saying the consideration system if fail-proof, but I still prefer having it over not having it or revoking consideration powers from *some* by a decision of gods or handing reaping powers only to a select *few*.

Remember /borg ? There is no reason for the losing of power to consider to be permanent

    Borging is an answer to an entirely different issue. And it is used very very sparingly.

    Since the consideration system is not broken, or not even considered a problem by the Monastery, I tend to go by the "Don't repair it, if it ain't broken" maxim.

    Allow me to ask you a more personal question: you seem genuinely interested in the good working of the Monastery. Why don't you join us and post under your own identity?

      I understand, I used it as an example of an existing policy with a feature of time limit which is why I mention of time limit being an option that could be considered :)

      I understand your position

        You seem to have appointed yourself the Chief of Perlmonks Police. You should post using your username so that you can be borged:-(. Be a good little boy and play elsewhere.
