-__New Suggestion__: Alternate 1
: Virians who do
not vote in at least 60
% of elections will be removed from
the reputation system. The determination will be made from
closed votes since the member became eligable to
vote (i.e. from
the date of first joining the rating system
).
+__New Suggestion 3
__: Virians shall receive 100% of their voting equity on casting their first vote. From then on, should a Virian
not vote in a "compulsory" election, they will lose 25
% of their voting equity for each election missed during
the last 4 elections
closed. Each
vote placed
(including
the current vote
) will earn back 25% of their voting equity up to 100% of their voting equity
.
-__New Suggestion__: Alternate 2: Virians shall receive
an equity according to
the current system
, but their equity shall be adjusted by a "voting weight" based on whether they
have voted in the last
4 elections closed
(i
.e
. 25% of equity per
vote cast
, awarded as they vote, so their first vote earns them
25% of their
available equity, etc)
. Where the member omits voting before a vote closes
, their
equity will be reduced by
25% for
each vote missed
.
+As
an example, consider
the following (assume all existing voters have 100% at start
, votes which are not closed
have unknown voter equity)
