I will of course be Clarking my two eligible bills, just for the record.

Attn @King Txec @þerxh Sant-Enogat @Breneir Tzaracomprada and @Mic'haglh Autófil, O.Be - quick reminder this will be your last opportunity until the next First Clark in October to Clark the bills you currently have in the Hopper (if they pass CRL, where necessary).
#23
I approve.
#24
I see no problems with form or function, and I vote to approve.

Quote from: Sir Lüc on June 24, 2026, 06:06:12 PMPlease don't necropost on threads this old; six months old is bad but tolerable, three years is way too old. I suppose it's not explicitly discouraged by Wittiquette, but it makes historical research much more difficult when threads are suddenly heavily out of order.

Thank you for advising on this, Luc. Would it be better for me to request a split beforehand rather than make the post? Or if someone could help me with how to do it?

I think the best thing to do is to simply create a quote from the old thread, and paste it into a new thread. The quote's header will contain a link to the original comment, which can be used to peruse the old thread. (Or if you don't want to quote anything in particular, you can just paste a link to the original thread.)

QuoteAs you mentioned this is not a breach of any etiquette rules but I do not want to make historical research more difficult. I am currently doing exactly that on Old Witt.

To be more specific - necroposting is not a breach of Wittiquette but is one of those things that are pretty much universally discouraged in Internet fora. AFAIK, there's no way to prevent it which wouldn't also prevent legitimate "update threads" - something like the "Holding place for Green legislation" thread getting revived every 2-3 months - and so there's just a red warning in the bottom when people attempt to reply to old posts, but I don't think it's getting read that often.




This is very helpful, thanks Luc.

I guess it's good to get some practice in, but @Moses Henry Emefiele , you're not quite to that point yet!

9. The following text shall be known as The Oath of Talossan Citizenship:
From this day forward, I pledge my loyalty, allegiance, and fidelity to the Kingdom of Talossa and to its Organic Law. I solemnly affirm that I will respect the rights and freedoms of all my fellow citizens, defend the realm against all enemies both foreign and domestic, faithfully observe the nation's laws, fulfill all my duties and obligations as a citizen of the Kingdom of Talossa, and humbly appreciate the benefits granted unto me by my King, most especially when those benefits take the form of Talossan currency or national cuisine.

I pledge to Talossa my Country, To be faithful and honest, to server Talossa with all my strength and to defend our unity and uphold and honour and glory so help me God.
