Lord Treasurer, I applaud this clarification of procedure and your clear dedication to the principles of democratic government within our Society.

However, as Treasurer and Master of Coin of our beloved organization I wonder if any motioned, and seconded, FKP point should be officially awarded by you, as the final arbiter of the Treasury of this organization. This very minor check on the power of direct democracy within our organization could allow for the prevention of situations where abuse becomes an issue, to wit: if three unworthy imposters were to tag and begin colluding to award each other an overlarge and undeserved amount of FKP points for posts of recognized and demonstrable unmerit, the Lord Treasurer could with this power and responsibility prevent such tainted posts from causing our Treasury vault to open and our name to enter disgrace.

To this end I propose that I should delegate the responsibility to notify you, our Lord Treasurer, of any seconded FKP point award motion which passes my Internet Explorer window, to one of my lieutenants in the Department of Trolling Until You Believe Your Own Trolls who handles private messaging on my forum account(s). I propose that other members of our esteemed Society should also take it upon their branches of the organization to make a good faith attempt to notify the Treasurer if it is believed he has not responded to a FKP point awarding request after some time period (use your better judgment) has elapsed.

The procedure would look like:
  1. fat diss of an ostrich-faced pencildick
  2. FKP point award nomination
  3. FKP point award confirmation
  4. Notification of the Lord Treasurer, if necessary
  5. FKP point awarded

To my Comrades in this organization: what say you? Does such a maneuver invest too much power in the hands of the chief officer of our Treasury?

May the Shadow of Cincinnatus ever haunt my steps.
Indeed the honorable Director of The Department of Trolling Until You Believe Your Own Trolls has spoken wisely. His words bleed of both merit and grace. Let not us fall prey to such pestiferous virulence as has befallen every great society hitherto. Verily the three great vices of greed, vanity and pettiness have ever stood idignant on the rough hewn path of progress. Let not any man nor woman nor combination thereof reserve any measure of authority due our great society. And let not any man nor woman nor combination thereof who our great society, by the purposeful hand of providence, hath anointed purveyor of truths, self evident or not, decline such privilege. Let him dutifully embrace the powers incumbent upon his heart, pure and virtuous.

May our dear treasure serve irrefutably as arbiter, second and third and fourth only to masters beyond this realm, Llandris and Rogean and Aradune, in matters if FKP.
