Bill #1
There has been recent debate on the interpretation of the section of Member Order and Organization entitled “Promotions Limits,” which currently reads:
“Beyond the rank of Captain, no member may be promoted more than once in any eight month period. Members may only be promoted in this manner to the next highest rank as outlined in the Chain Of Command.”
Following discussion in Command on how to prevent this in the future, and in the interest of solidifying the intention of the limits as they currently stand, the entire text of the “Promotions Limits” section shall be changed to read:
“A member may receive by Presidential Edict only single-step promotions in Member Rank. Upon receiving a promotion in this manner, the member becomes ineligible for further Member Rank promotion in the same manner for a period of eight months.”
