Proposal 7621 (by G., AI-3, Ordinary)
Further Patent Cleanup
[Cleaning up some duplicitous and/or never-used wording, especially
using secured to cover the older limitations.]
Amend Rule 649 (Patent Titles) to read:
A Patent Title is a legal title given to a person in recognition
of the person's distinction. The Herald is an office; its
holder is responsible for tracking Patent Titles in eir monthly
report.
Awarding or revoking a Patent Title is secured. A person
permitted and enabled to award (revoke) a Patent Title SHALL do
so in a timely fashion after the conditions authorizing em to do
so are announced, unless there is an open judicial case
contesting the validity of those conditions.
The Herald CAN award a specified Patent Title not already
defined by any Rule or held by any entity to a specified player
With 2 Agoran Consent.
Amend Rule 2231 (Order of the Hero of Agora Nomic) to read:
Heroic titles are Agora's premier patent titles of distinction,
and CAN be awarded to persons for meritorious service only by
a proposal of power 3 or greater, which SHOULD explain why
those persons are qualified. Bearers of heroic titles (Heros)
constitute the Order of the Hero of Agora Nomic.
The Heroic titles in decreasing precedence are:
Grand Hero of Agora Nomic (GHAN) -- This title may be awarded to
any person obviously and directly responsible for the existence
of Agora and/or Nomic in general. As this title is the highest
honour that Agora may bestow, a Bearer of this title OUGHT to be
treated right good forever.
Hero of Agora Nomic (HAN) -- This title may be awarded to any
person for outstanding meritorious service to Agora above and
beyond the call of duty.
