== Going Back To Basics ==
There has been discussion regarding a [[Graal Military Community|community]] constitution of some sort and I had the privilege of being part of it. It is a concept that many of the old guard has been trying to push for and, quite frankly, it is a needed, albeit not urgent, matter. I have found a lapse on the approach taken towards this, however, and I have informed the proponents of the constitution about this time and time again—bring everyone to the table. It is unlikely for everyone to agree on something that they have no part in making. The whole process and everyone's effort will be put to waste if some proponents would push for anything contrary. No matter how big or small, all guilds matter in this certain issue, and excluding even one of them would defeat the purpose of a community constitution given its intent. ''
The problem does not stop on the exclusion of other guilds on the constitution's creation process, however. Proponents have also failed to consider the diversity of the community, and there must not exist any limitation as to what a "military guild" could be. Even back then, not all guilds follow the formula of [[the State|The State]] of 'uniform, ranks, organization' and this is a matter that should be taken into consideration because even if a guild's theme is Disneyland, who the fuck are you to tell them that they cannot be a military solely because of their theme? Some proponents have tried imposing such restrictions on what a military must be and, frankly, it has to be one of the dumbest ideas I have ever heard. A military guild, for the most part, should only have three things: organization (hierarchy), intention to be a military guild, and (if passed) the guild leader's commitment to uphold the constitution. Anything else would mean imposing a rule that would just crack the constitution open in less than a year and leave it powerless.
