if a poll

  • gets 100 or more votes
  • has a 75% majority
  • adds, removes, or amends a properly formatted rule

    • To add a properly formatted rule, you must write the entire rule as it will appear on the rules page, along with any subclauses. The punishment can also be defined. Example:


Rule 17: No commenting or posting past midnight:

  • Commenting between 2 AM - 4 AM UTC -> Delete -> 1 day -> 3 days -> 1 week -> 1 month -> perma


  • Posting between 2 AM - 4 AM UTC -> Permanent


  • Exception: Commenting or posting between 2:45 AM - 2:50 AM -> Do nothing

  • NO retroactive rule applications (i.e a new ban won't let you delete old posts, or ban someone for something they did before the rule)
  • referendums MUST be anonymous
  • after a poll reaches 100 votes, it is closed and tallied 24 hours later
  • polls must NOT have expiry times
  • if a poll fails, it has a 2 week cooldown period before it can be recreated
  • if a referendum is edited after being opened, it is disqualified

then that change will be implemented to the the ruleset and jannies have to follow it.

So senators can vote on any referendum regardless of it having achieved the requirements for passing?
Why are we acting like this senate shit is in anyway meant to be taken seriously?

Quoting it directly it says
"The Senate shall have the power to approve or deny referendums. It shall choose among itself by majority decision whether to approve or deny them. No referendum shall be passed without the approval of the Senate, regardless of the results of any popular vote attached therein."

Yes
is that specified anywhere in the orginal senatorial proposal?
https://soybooru.com/forum/meta/thread/29324
the only thing I see that's even close to that is
>The Senate shall have the power to approve or deny referendums. It shall choose among itself by majority decision whether to approve or deny them. No referendum shall be passed without the approval of the Senate, regardless of the results of any popular vote attached therein.
which just says that every poll, succesful or not, requires senatorial approval to be valid, never says that you can pass rules without popular vote
