    1.1 A rule or ruleset can only become ratified if proposed as a post under the #hubnomic tag.

    1.2 A rule or ruleset can not become ratified if proposed as a comment on a post under the #hubnomic tag.

I vote against these. It will overwhelm Hubski with #Hubnomic posts.

    1.7 A vote does not count if made as a reply to a comment in the "Rule/set Proposition" post.

I vote against this. Replying to the proposition is the best way to keep votes organized.

    It will overwhelm Hubski with #Hubnomic posts.

I acknowledge that Hubski might be suddenly flooded with #hubnomic posts, but I hardly think it will be overwhelmed. This ruleset is an attempt to find an organized way to vote and count votes and begin to emerge from the chaos of structure we find ourselves in these early stages of the game. I am not too terribly worried about overwhelming hubski as there are <20 followers at the moment, and users that get annoyed by the #hubnomic tag can always filter it.

    Replying to the proposition is the best way to keep votes organized.

If a proposition is made as a stand-alone post, the votes could take place in the comment section, but would not count as replies to comments as some comments would not necessarily be votes, but merely opinions on the rule/ruleset proposed.

If this particular ruleset were to be passed, I'm of the mind that we could amend rulesets in the comment sections (i.e "I propose to amend rule 1.x of the proposed ruleset") and votes for those amendments could take place within the replies to that comment. I chose to leave that out of this ruleset to keep things simple at this point and gauge interest.

Whatever comes out of this, this already seems like fun.
