"My reasons for wanting to become a part of the council of representatives are simple;
to do what the council is supposed to do. Represent! I frequently visit the feedback section to see what other member wants and doesn't want. As a member of the council of representatives I will strive for representing our community of members here, and to improve UEPC in every aspect. UEPC may be a good site now, but it can always get better!"
...
"What else do I want to do during my term?
I wish for UEPC to have more tournaments and events, such as competitions with prizes such as rare Pokémons and Items. I wish for the UEPC to have events that everyone can participate in, even those who aren't that good at competitive battling! Even events not directly related to the games can be held, such as drawing and fanfic competitions."

"Why I want to be a representative
It'll be a nice experience. I don't have any experience about these things yet, this is my second forum I'm dealing with. But still I have a fresh point of view to these "how to improve" questions. And thus, I'd be a good choice into this."
"What plans I have
I don't actually know yet. I'd like to improve every thing/place where I found any things to be improved. And I think very much about any topic in the Member's corner. I listen, think, search for more info and then show my opinion into any question. Lorem Ipsum said about the "language wall" some younger people may have. I'll work toward doing something to help them, if people choose me to be a representative."

"I want to become a representative. I believe that my methods of getting my opinion across are rather good, and I believe that I can honestly contribute something to the Union, making it far more friendly towards those who can't speak English as well, but encouraging English discussion also. I also have the necessary experience: I am currently Leader of the Conservative Party on a political simulator of the UK Parliament, showing that I can debate more than competently and make good decisions."
...
"If I was elected, there is one main issue I would like to address. It is accepted that every active member can speak English to an understandable degree. But part of the amazing thing across Europe is the language diversity that is created. I for one am a fanatic about languages, but am one of a tiny number within my school, so have nobody to truly practice my three European languages, French, Spanish and Italian with. It is thus that I would propose a single child board in every national forum, constituting discussion in that area."
"During my term as a representative, I would want to put the main plain as I mentioned above into action, while accurately representing the views of the people of the UEPC. I would also be committed to advertising it wherever I can, and increasing general traffic (at least from British people). I want to see a thriving UEPC. I believe that this project can work, and will work, and when it does, it will truly unite the European Pokémon fans, divided no more by language and culture. This vision is attainable, and I would try to my utmost ability to attain it."

"Why I want to be a Representative
I spend a lot of time on my computer, usually reading about things that interest me, like Geology, Pokémon and other stuff and I’m usually checking this forum to see what kinds of things are being discussed and generally spend a lot of time in the Introductions forum, you might have seen me, or you might have not. I’ve also made a few posts in the UK section and in the Other Stuff forum. I love reading other peoples thoughts on things, even if at first I don’t understand the subject matter, I’m more than willing to sit and listen anyway, trying to pick things up as I go along. The main reason I want to be a representative is simply because I take interest in listening to other people and if I can actually do something good by listening to those people then all the better. "
"What contributions I plan on making
I’d like to make a review of the rules here at UEPC, making sure that the members get their full say and review the rules themselves, suggesting what parts are fair and unfair and giving us some pointers about what changes need to be made. After watching the last wifi tournament from “the shadows” so to speak, I noticed that there was some confusion in the communication between members that were taking part. I’d like to think we can arrange the rules for the next tournament with communication in mind, making sure everyone can contact each other freely and knows just what’s going off at each point in the tournament. I see the rules as holding things all together, including people so it’s my view to hold them in high priority in order to keep things flowing smoothly, which for a forum, in my opinion, is one of the more important things."

"I know how to speak and express my self in lots of languages so that lots of people can understand my proposals.
I've got lots of ideas that would be of interest, for rules and for lots of other things.
Here some of the proposals:
1-To do a private chat.
2-To make a newspaper of forum
3-To make a prize to the best one and the worse user of the month or the week. Like for example giving him some exclusive option, etc.
And I have lots of other proposals that you will discover if you choose me as the representative
If I'm elected and voted from the people, I'd be totally greatfull.
I promise you all, if you choose me as the representative you all would be proud of doing it because I wont defroud you.
I hope you vote me."

"Reason for wanting to become a Representative, and thus why other members should vote for me.
The main reason why I want to become a Respesentative is because I think this place is not as active as it could and should be,and thus needs a push from the current member-base and a way for it to become bigger.I believe I have the attributes necessary for the Union to benefit from me,if I can get people's trust and get elected.
Future plans and intended contributions
Unfortunately,I don't currently have any specific plans in case I become a Representative,but I would be glad to act as a "unifying link" between the regular members and the Community Council,helping discuss everyone's ideas and views in order for the decisions made to be for the greater good.I'm positive that I have the attributes neccesary for such an objective to be completed,and I'm sure we can make the Union as big as it should be if we work all together."
