Triads are not living up to what they need to be. I know this is Dan Browns experiment, but I think we should act upon giving a government to triads. A democracy of somesort to where if two members of a group agree upon that one member is not fulfilling his or her spot that they can "impeach" or basically eliminate that member.
Triads most here for 1. interview and elect a new member and 2. still complete there project they were given.
I think this would improve the success rate of all triads

Dan stated that the assigned triads cannot be changed because it would defeat the purpose. He also stated that if any one member is lacking, the triad is to fully pull out.
So, uh, I'm against this. Neat idea but not what we're set up to do here.

The purpose of the triads is to force everyone to work together and get us ALL to level 4. We can't just ostracize someone that isn't doing their part and say, "You're not a part of the tribe anymore, so we're a level 4 tribe now because we kicked out the level 3s."

I didn't say kicked out of tribe just the triads. In any group of people there is certain things people are capable of being. These people were blindly volunteer simply because (hopefully) they love the tribe. This is stupid in my opinion forcing people to do a task that they may simply not have the skill or time to do. Not all people stable schedules and might potentially not be able to hold up there end of the bargain. To me this is fine. I think we will be unable to keep a level 4 status if something is obviously failing and no-one is trying to come up with a solution. now Dan may have a plan and is hoping this is going to fail to show us something. But we cant sit by and let his experiments ruin OUR tribe. This tribe, while he is the cheif, is not about Dan Brown.

Right, but we did volunteer to do something for Dan. And for the tribe.
It's not about Dan's commands; it's about doing something we believe in. And right now, those of us in triads that are working believe in this triad system that Dan asked us to try.
We're completely willing to stick around for the long haul on this one, man. I think we need to wait until the end of this "trial run" to do anything off-base.
And, yes, I know I keep saying "we" but I truly hope the other functioning triads are on board with me on this.

We are. I think we really need to see how this is going to pan out. I'm VERY excited about the whole thing.

There's no need to be so condescending. Maybe you're right, maybe you're not. But there's no point in getting angry at the people that are willing to give Dan's way a try. You say that you're trying to help the community, but if you can't respect the other members of the community, then we can't seriously believe that you care about the community.

Alrighty then, just sounds like a big waste of time, to WATCH something fail If you think it's a waste of time because you believe it will fail then you're free to NOT watch it. It's simple: If you signed up to be in a triad, you signed up to be completely dedicated to the tribe. Everyone who signed up knew this. So if someone isn't holding up their end of the bargain, it's up to their triad to sort out the problem before it's too late. And by too late, I mean them having to drop out as a triad. The responsibility to keep the triads working is completely down to the triads themselves. Imposing some sort of governmental system on them would kinda defeat the purpose of it. Democracy is just a fancy word for 'a little more freedom than the average dictatorship'. |

It's Dans project, but from what I understood in Logans video.. a "triad government" would actually benefit it. Then again it is being formed for the wrong reasons, so it should not be formed the way you are descrbining it.

Well what I am trying to get across (which proves that I am biased on this subject) is I dont believe in blind volunteer ship. If Dan had informed the people before he asked of volunteers I would have nothing to say.

The triads themselves (IMHO) have accomplished so much. I think the triad idea is great. It really pushed people to DO things rather than sit around picking their noses.

pogotribenews, you haven't really asked yourself why we volunteered for the triads? Well, at least I did it because I was interested in it, I wanted to contribute to the tribe even more and I was willing to be fully commited to it. The way you describe democracy is where "if two people agree on something, the third person's vote doesn't count". This is wrong; the last person should also have a vote and the right to be heard, and instead of "ignoring" this person, all three members of the triad should instead agree on something. This model would of course not work in the bigger perspective (like in the whole tribe), but it smaller groups like the triads, I believe that it would work perfectly fine.

You kind of missed the point of what i was say Fred. You said yourself that one person in your triad wasn't meeting there end of the bargain. Wouldn't you have preferred to have had a third member that did meet there end? not that you just ignore all the third member

I take a bit of offence to that XP I would have appreciated something other than "sitting around an picking our noses" but I was pretty lazy, I admit. |

The tribe has great ideas, but not many have been implemented. |
