> Lucky to see a council member once a week. Immortals, you are quick to kick everyone else out for failure. Kick the council members out if they do not show. Replace the empty seats. Even if it is a complete loser, replace it with someone that can induct. Then when he fails, replace him with someone else. Just do not let the Empire sit there without leadership.

> I must say I agree with this quite a bit. I'd taken the Oath, but wasn't a Citizen. You know why I was Anath'ed? I answered a question to the Imperial Inquisitor wrong. You know why? Because I've not seen anyone online of the Empire that I could trust for ANY reliable information online. Its tough to respond well to Imperial inquiry when you know nothing of the Empire. One person told me I should ask the Emperor. Truth is, in RP, I had to say "Emperor? We've got one of those? Never seen em." Obviously the Empire cannot grow strong with no one to induct or preach it's goals/morals/laws. What's a person to do? I wasn't going to lie to the Inquisitor, and my lack of Empire knowledge was not my own fault. Seems to me, the high-ups should be made Anathemas.
