MarK

MarK is a current Consul of KhAnubia and a prominent member of the server.

Early Months
Mark joined KhAnubia on Friday, the 24th of July, 2020, during the consulship of Artificial Gravitas and Nightmare. He was invited by a man by the name of Isaac, who was a prominent and active member of the community at that time. Throughout his first few weeks on the server, he wasn't all that active; but on 7 September, Isaac once again urged MarK to be more active. Thus, Mark decided to run for Senate.

The Election
In order to be more active, MarK decided that he would take a shot for a spot in the 4th Senate. He soon came up with a statement, "I, MarK, declare my candidacy for the Senate. I shall bring a new, active, and fresh face to the Senate to represent the people's interests. KhAnubia First!", which, in the words of former Consul Artificial Gravitas himself, was "Shorter than most, yet said the most". MarK ended up winning 11 votes in the election, second only to Taffee (12 votes), which secured a spot for him in the 4th Senate of KhAnubia.

Activity
During these days, MarK was very prominent, especially in the month of the Election (October), and was one of the most active, if not the most active member on the server. He managed to achieve an all time personal best of 1,250 messages in a day on the 7th of October, 2020.



Staff Career
After already having applied for Staff once and not getting accepted, MarK tried a second time on November 25th. This time, he was accepted into the Staff Team and embarked on his Quaestorship on the 4th of December. He proceeded to get promoted to Aedile in a matter of weeks after which he became Praetor. During his staff days, MarK was moderately active in the server, yet participated a decent amount in Staff discussions. However, he soon began to slip into inactivity.

Early Months
August 2nd, 2021. It was a sad day for most, as former Consul Prometheus announced that he would be resigning, after a very successful 10 month reign. He stated that he would be passing on the duty as the new Consul of KhAnubia to MarK alongside Kanji, who also soon resigned and passed it on to Sfirro. However, MarK proceeded to go mostly inactive during majority of his Consulship.

MarK's Perspective
After having heard a lot of complaints about PollAll's controversial views, on the 22nd of January 2022, MarK decided that he needed to take some action. He wasn't necessarily planning on banning PollAll but, due to the lack of staff online at that specific time and the opinions of the few moderators that were online, MarK proceeded to give HappyBoi the green light to go ahead and ban him.

The Aftermath
Immediately, people spiraled in to a state of confusion. The server saw a huge rise in activity as people began to argue and it soon became clear that most wanted a solid piece of evidence as to why PollAll was banned. However, due to this having been a rushed decision by MarK and Happy, the staff failed to comply. A few members started to protest in order to get the staff to reconsider the ban which they saw as unfair and biased. This went on for a day until, after lots of discussions, on the 23rd of January, the staff decided to unban PollAll from the server, and instead ban him from #politics-chat (the channel in which he was the most active in).
