PROPOSAL: No Rules Shall Be Retroactive.

DISAGREE

Also, it does indeed appear that the current wording means disagreeing doesn't matter; it's just the two proposals with the most "support" votes win, so abstaining is just as good as disagreeing.

Quote from: Armok
PROPOSAL: all vote posts must quote the proposal being voted on.
SUPPORT

PROPOSAL: No Rules Shall Be Retroactive.
Strongly DISAGREE. It will be much more interesting if there can be retroactive changes...

And what about time paradox then? Like if a rules retroactively change the vote so that it cannot be applied?

Paradoxes are fun, and don't need retroactivity. Normal rule additions can create paradoxes as well.

I PROPOSE: Anyone who, on purpose or by accident, creates a paradox by having his/her proposal accepted, whether it is retroactive or not, automatically loses and the offending rule is rendered null and void.

Fun stuff: if someone proposes a paradox we can make him lose by all voting for it. ;)

Proposal: If a person receives four or more elephants, rules they proposed shall be removed from the rule list at a rate of 1 rule for 4 elephants, and 1 rule for each additional elephant.
