Introducing myself / yourself

Post by Oni Jiutai »

I looked around for a "Saying Hello" thread and couldn't spot one, so I'm taking the liberty of creating one myself. If anyone else who's newish thinks it's a good idea, please feel free.

I'm Oni Jiutai, a new citizen. Although I'd looked at Second Life before, I got reintroduced by Ashcroft, whom I know in RL. He introduced me to the CDS and the fascinating controversies of creating and sustaining a democratic government here. Since I'm a current lawyer (UK employment law) and an ex-politics student I've got hooked.

Thus far I've managed to attend a few meetings, buy some property and complete the Judicial Application form, but I'm sure I'll have more to say later and I'm looking forward to getting to know you all.

:)

Welcome. Justice described you to me as "reasonable." I'm sure that Justice will welcome you, as I do. The role of "only reasonable lawyer in the CDS" is wearing on Justice, I'm sure.

Edit -- In this post I was negligently failing to think of Publius, who appears to have been the lawyer who described Oni as "reasonable" compared to me. With Publius, Justice was not as alone as I indicated. However, three is still company in this context. With Oni, the reasonable attorneys appear to balance the unreasonable ones.

Let's keep things simple enough to be fair, substantive enough to be effective, and insightful enough to be good.

Thank you all. It's always nice to be thought of as reasonable, however fleetingly. :wink:

Glad to have you with us! I've been out of the loop for a bit lately, but I think I've seen you once in the city so far.
