Aye

With all due respect to the Underhusen, what did Reon do or accomplish? What impact did he have on the region and the community? Most of the "achievements" the commendation includes are lists of positions...is holding positions really commendable in its own right? What did he do in these positions that's so commendable? As it stands the only actual accomplishment that the commendation lists is that he authored some laws. Is that really why we still think of Reon over a year after his departure: that he held some positions for a long time and wrote a few laws?

Even if it turns out that the most commendable thing about Reon is the postive impact he had on the community just from being part of it, I feel like that would make for a more worthy commendation of Reon than what we're considering today. I don't necessary have a problem with a commendation listing the positions that they held as well, I just don't feel like they should be the meat of the commendation.

Nay

With one vote for and two votes against, I declare this act has FAILED.
