For the Navy, then...like a peacoat? White wheel cap...that would look pretty cool. As Admiral, I support this.

We are in constant contact with each other, and see each other, at the very least, once a week. (We'd probably hang out more often than that, if my day job wasn't so physically demanding.) (Hard to have fun with a pal when you are completely exhausted.) Vitx hasn't bothered to register on this New Witt. He's still a Talossan, we constantly discuss Talossan things, and collaborate all the time on ideas for our Benito Cjováni subculture. The online aspect of Talossa just doesn't interest him much. (He's raising four daughters, so he has other priorities.) His inactivity may cause him to be cut from the rolls, which is not fair. Is Talossa just an internet club? Like Facebook groups that expel members when they haven't participated or posted anything in awhile? To me, Witt ain't Talossa. It's an online forum about Talossa. Being Talossan is what you do, offline.
Given Talossa's nature as a voluntary association, I think keeping the ability to opt-out is important. But at the same time, I have a hard time wrapping my head around why someone would want to opt out completely in the first place.
I think part of this cuts right to the heart of what it means to "do Talossa." Given the peculiar nature of Talossa, is a citizen who is completely incommunicado with the wider community still count as Talossan? No interest in current goings on, contact information completely out of date, no functional link to the Talossan state. Can this person still be said to be "doing Talossa?"
The Derivationist answer is probably, in some way, "yes." Peculiarists of a certain stripe may very well say "no." Most voluntary associations require contact (many even require a level of activity) to be considered a "member."
Then that gets us into the weeds of whether something is lost when an inactive citizen is cut form the rolls. But that's an answer that varies based on what you value.
