You're looking at it from the wrong angle.

Situation:
  • Proposal is made by evil_guy that is unanimously supported by Lazarus.
  • Evil_guy sneaks in an edit that nobody catches when it is voted on that changes the entire meaning.
  • Evil_guy makes a motion to bring it to a vote.
  • Evil_guy's friend seconds the motion.
  • Shareholders cast their vote, not noticing the small change that changes the meaning of the law.
  • You vote against because you caught the change, but no one else has, and has already cast their vote.
  • Too late, the change was never discussed so people are unable to make an informed decision about it.
  • Evil_guy's proposal goes into law without allowing proper discussion.

Perhaps the rule could be that any change made to the legislation requires the same 3 day standing period? How do you feel about that?

Quote:The post was not a proposal, which I see now; however, it was not labeled as a discussion either. Can we get a tag for discussions as well? Currently the only option is proposal.
When it was moved to the tabled area, the label was stripped. I'll add the label there too, so it doesn't happen next time.
