Founder privileges cannot be limited due to game mechanics. They're there and no legislation passed by IDUSA can change that.

Well, yes, I understand that. I might've not made myself clear in my post, I apologize. But there could be a way that we work some rule into legislation that a founder is able to abide by. Like I said, it wouldn't be incredibly limiting, but I think it would be beneficial. Otherwise, the fact that the founders are basically untouchable under the game mechanics could potentially become a bad thing for our region in the sense of their ability to limit democratic processes. Yes, I understand that they technically cannot be limited via the games rules itself, but I still think this would be a good piece of legislation to work on further. If not for the upright legitimacy, at least for the symbolism of it.

The Founder nation has had Bears, Grosse, Scion, and myself able to access it since 2013. Longer for Bears and Grosse! We're not giving anyone else access. I don't understand why we suddenly think that the Founders are going to interfere in democratic processes when they haven't thus far. Especially when 3 of the 4 are members of the actual game's staff and any interference in stuff like this would ruin our credibility (and we'd likely get in much serious trouble than this region alone could ever).

As I explained on Discord also, because of the way the backend is set up, if one of the founders did something you didn't like, there's no way of knowing which founder it was.

And as I also said, this option of kicking and banning and suppressing speech is currently not just restricted to Founders - all members of cabinet have the Border Control powers, and a few have the Communications power. So I don't understand why we're worried about the Founders - four people who have served in this region for about a decade now, at least, each - and not about the regional officers.
