__New Suggestion__: Alternate 1: Virians who do not vote in at least 60% of elections will be removed from the reputation system. The determination will be made from closed votes since the member became eligable to vote (i.e. from the date of first joining the rating system).
__New Suggestion__: Alternate 2: Virians shall receive an equity according to the current system, but their equity shall be adjusted by a "voting weight" based on whether they have voted in the last 4 elections closed (i.e. 25% of equity per vote cast, awarded as they vote, so their first vote earns them 25% of their available equity, etc). Where the member omits voting before a vote closes, their equity will be reduced by 25% for each vote missed.
