They will be appointed as the President and the Cabinet of Ministers of the Sri Lanka Equity forum which has a membership of over 10,000. They will have absolute powers of the forum.

Lets start the Nominations before we get into voting.
Current Administrators will take care of the forum during election time.

If not how they can give an answer?

Seems to be you started something and couldn't proceed?

Current Administrators are suppose to manage the Election Process. Do You want to appoint a Election Commissioner? It is not a bad idea.

Let say if manipulator become president since we ( long forum users) know who they are; I am pretty sure I will not come to this forum... One day this forum will be banned. Better you discuss most appropriate way to select president and vice president.

I have found no issues with smallville or slstock. I don't think u need this blind election system.

If we are to have democracy, we need to go by election and total votes. As you said I would also like the final selection is done on the basis of merits and not on votes. If GMnet get involved in the final selection, then exiting management will complain and accuse that we are trying to appoint one of its people as the President. Therefore we would like to stay out of the selection process.

It is up to the membership to nominate and vote for the best candidate. No system is a perfect, but at least this way we are doing something better for the forum.

According to my knowledge current so called management didn't get any info from your part regarding election or what to do.

Seems to be you are carrying out your own agenda and giving false info to the members.

I'm not challenging that you can run this forum or not, but never ever you can't keep the pride what this forum achived in the past.

Good luck mate.

BTW Sierra groups know what you are doing right now here?

Seems to be thier group quoted company kissing 52 weeks low at CSE, same time this forum esteem also hitting all time low.

According to information received, current administrators have been clearly told by the previous Administrator, Quibit that forum should evolve to have an election once a year to appoint Administrators. This has not been implemented by the current Administration for reasons only known to them. I don't know whether it is willful or by neglect that it has not happen since the previous appointment. I am fulfilling the obligatory duties of the current Administrators.

We have requested the previous Administrator Quibit to come back to the forum for a short period until the new administrators are appointed. I am sure we will soon see her in the forum.

and of course, why go through all this hassle? you can make yourself the Admin and do the needful.

Job description remain as same as the current Administrators except that he/she should encourage interaction among members and promote diverse views and opinions of the members so that the forum will represent balanced views of any subject or matter.
