Heres how I think the dereliction process should be sorted, bearing in mind that some think it is broken while others like it how it is. Bold is the additions.

C. Dereliction

i. Derelict property that has shown no signs of improvement in at least one weeks shall be considered unowned.

ii. Those seeking the validity of a derelict plot will make a post on the subreddit /r/mtaugusta declaring intention of dereliction. They will also place a sign at the property with their name, date (of placing the sign), and the word “dereliction”.

iii. If the property is clearly marked by the owner, and this owner is a registered voter with their reddit account on the voter registry thread, then in the dereliction post, along with a picture and co-ords, the person wanting the dereliction must do /u/username to inform the resident of the attempt.

iv. After one week, barring no objections or active claims by a participant in Mount Augustan affairs as defined by Article I, Section A, Part iii, subpart a, the land will become derelict, and will be claimed by the initiating individual.

v. If a tenant returns, or claims their property within the week, there shall be no dereliction.

vi. If the tenant will have an extended absence from civcraft and/or reddit, the posting of a sign or a post to /r/mtaugusta will prevent their property from dereliction.
