Please remove the de minimus Downvote as a legitimate option, and I will happily vote YES
To be clear, I should have added, "if the proposal fails" ;>
a POB specific community initiative such as @freezepeach or @flagabuse might be a good idea, but I'm not volunteering either of us. Having run a community before, I know what a PITA it can be
@trostparadox aside from DV's from plagiarism, do we have statistics on how many de minimus votes have occurred on POB? @AMR is this something you can provide to us?
Also, does ratification of a proposal mean it can't be altered in the future? I don't know honestly how it would work here.
I have not pulled that info, but it could be done.
A ratified proposal could be altered at any time, by whatever governance protocol happens to be in place at the time. At present, the stated governance protocol requires greater than 50% of stake-weighted POB voting affirmative.
As @mineopoly pointed out in a separate comment, that means abstentions are effectively "No" votes. Personally, I would rather see a higher threshold (e.g. 67% instead of 50%), but have it be based on whomever votes within the stated timeframe.
I would be happy to eliminate the de minimus option. It complicates the monitoring aspect considerably.
In retrospect, I probably should've left that out. However, I don't recall anyone raising concerns about it when the draft version was posted.
