So the much anticipated AGM for 2013 is not too far away. Personally, I cannot wait until certain individuals feel the full wrath of karma.
Can someone please explain how a Traditional Victorian membership gives you a right to vote in the AGM, but a QLD Standard Season membership does not?
I've had a quick glance over the constitution and it really makes your mind boggle. Season Ticket Members, "shall have no voting rights and have no access to social clubs unless a separate social club membership fee is paid or an entry fee paid as directed by the Board from time to time." On the other hand, a Full Member (over the age of 18) has AGM voting rights.

VIC Members don't even have reserved seating and access to social clubs - which would be the same as QLD Seasoned Ticket Members. How does a Standard Membership fall under the category of "Season Ticket Members" and the Traditional Vic "Full Members"?
From what I have heard, it has been like this for the past few years, and I know of a few people who are going to call into the club tomorrow and complain.
