Ombusman position
is the term only 6mnths not a year?
When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won.
There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall.

Nope. I actually wrote out a long, detailed post about it a long time ago, but I can't find that post now.
Anyway, the duration changed a LOT in the beginning. When I took office it was supposed to only last a month or something. But it became a 6 month term while I was in office.

Re: Ombusman position
It has been subject to change over the years, but 6 months is a reasonable period. Forums initial setup contained no actual timeline for new elections, although he did declare that the ombudsman has to be elected by the entire community.Rudy Pena wrote:It was always 6 months.....as far back I can remember.
There have been quite a few debates on the nature, responsibilities and power of the ombudsman.
(See my campaign thread for a link to the summary of the evolution of the office.) And then there's Jack's unfinished thread, giving a good insight in the evolution from another perspective, of course.
