1) As president, I have made an executive decision that, in order to help ensure that this conference maintains a sustainable level of activity, we should allow any DP poster who wishes to join the convention to do so by contacting the president or the Sec'y and requesting to be made a member.
As a result of that decision, I'd like everyone to welcome our newest member, Joko104
2) It has just come to my attention that this forum is operating under the rules that are different from the rest of DP.

As it's been explained to me, this means that the mods will not infract anyone for anything that is worth less than 10 point. In other words, things like baiting, flaming, and trolling are allowed in this forum. Since I have no interest in moderating a forum which allows such behavior, I am resigning my position as president and handing the presidency to the only other officer the convention has - Vasudatorrent. My decision becomes effective as soon as Vasudatorrent accepts his new position.
