Hello, I was inactive for some time. My shop is back up and running.I was thinking that you should, since you proposed the position and you're the only moderator as of now. The application is up to you, as well, and the limit. Who appoints the “Watchers?”
Activity Check
Right now I'm doing the first ever activity check of the United Shops of Scratch. All shops must respond by March 7, 2017 or else they will be removed from the federation for inactivity. This post will be updated accordingly for the amount of shops checked as active.
All shops added or members who have posted within seven days have been automatically added.

Hello there!
As you may have realized, -Prefection Graphics- is fairly in-active. @Bright-Idea has been very in-active lately. None of us are quite sure what is going on. Anyways, I am filling in in the moment. So, just wanted to give you guys a warning about this and say that -Prefection Graphics- should still be part of the federation.

Alright, noted. Hello, I was inactive for some time. My shop is back up and running.
Understood, but as a result of which, Bright-Idea will be removed as a representative and you will replace him/her. Hello there!

Update
Seeing that the activity check to update is a bit outdated (two pages behind), I will bring it up here:

-Includes all high staff members.

Requests as Owner
I would like an archiver (jromagnoli) or any volunteer to retrieve links for the following shops, which should be located in the pages of this topic or you could search the forums for:
The time a shop is allotted to become active again (to come back from closed) has been decreased from five months to two.
TacoCatProductions please can you appoint two justices, we need two more.
CONTESTS
Two contests, and only members of the USS can enter. We need a standardized banner that'll last for a while, and a wonderful seal that'll be used around the usages of USS. This will not only benefit official USS operations, but it'll also introduce a community project. Only shops that are members of the federation are permitted to submit work. Outside work could be submitted, but it will - unfortunately - not be used.
Official Seal/Banner Art
BANNER
Due by March 9, 2017, I am asking for an official banner of the USS, incorporating one of these styles (ONE not intertwined):
1. Black and gold
2. Red, white, and black
3. Grey, Orange, and Dark-grey
This should incorporate boldness, like strength and power, but also be welcoming to new users. This should be typical banner length, which I am not sure of - but please inform me on so. (One that would also fit in a signature.)
SEAL
Due by March 9, 2017, as well, I'm asking for an official seal of the USS, which MUST BE SIMILAR TO THE BANNER IF SUBMITTED, meaning that it must be a smaller version - not meaning tiny font or compact space, but perhaps an abbreviation (i.e. you submitted a banner with “United Shops of Scratch” but that wouldn't fit in a seal! Compact it to “USS” instead!)
This should, just like the banner, incorporate boldness and welcome-ness.
This will be given to shops to place in their OPs and used in USS deal posts.
ADVERTISEMENT BANNER
Due by March 16, 2017, I would like up to three advertisement banners that reflect a welcoming nature and a sense of humor or brightness. It is advised to reflect on the correctness and formality of the USS, but appeal to serious, not serious, and neutral users.
It should also be noticeable, but not spammy or too much.
Three will be used at once as official content for the USS, and members are advised to use it in their signatures. This will also not be as solid as the banner/seal contest above, as this could be easily changed.
IF you are a member of a shop that is cut from the USS by March 7, 2017, reflecting the activity check, but submit the work before cut, your work will be accepted, but advised to re-join under another shop.
The members-only policy may become flexible, and so shall the deadline if less than three submissions are submitted for the banner/seal contest, and five for the advertisement one.

Freedom of Head Staff
Direct bump from last page:
I'm thinking that the proposition mechanism is a bit complicated, to be honest, so I was thinking that it should be only given to standard members (those who are not owners, secretaries, archivers, etc.), that ensures that they propose reasonable laws. Not that I do not trust them, but for head staff it's a bit complicated and unnecessary to wait three days (and up to six days) for a law to be passed.
This is not intended as a rant, but rather a suggestion that I've been meaning to address for a while.
Elaborating on this, all standard members (defined previously) DO have to pass law approval through the proposition thread (which will be linked in the OP soon) while head staff do not have to wait that long. However, to ensure that the head staff is responsible as well, a similar action could be done against bad actions:
1. Head staff passes a proposition/law.
2. The controversial law could be denied by three members of any rank.
3. A vote occurs, and the result is the result. Shall there be a tie, the law is kept. The vote cannot return until another month.
