Board Thread:Community Voting/@comment-5111283-20160103232858

Since Thread:249470 looks like it'll pass, as Spider suggested I think it makes sense to do the same thing with demotions.

Really all of my same reasons apply for this as the Block/Un-Block thread.

This is my proposed wording to add to our rules:

"A community vote cannot be used to directly demote rights from a user, however, a petition to the Admins can be made that a user be demoted. This petition must state which right(s) are being asked to be removed and a case must be made against the user with supporting evidence* posted with the petition with solid reasoning. Using the same voting determination used on Community Votes, if the vote has the appropriate support all active Admins must view the evidence, talk with the user in question and vote on whether or not to demote the user. However, their vote is not required to align with the Community Vote and the outcome may not be to demote said user."


 * In this case an exception is made to this General Policy rule:

"Chat logs of users breaking the rules or doing humiliating things should not be posted on blogs. They should be given to an admin in private, and should not be given to the community in any way. Humorous logs may be posted if they are not intended to humiliate anyone."

A. Yes, add the above to the rules. - 1 votes

B. No, do not add the above to the rules. - 0 votes

C. Other
