RIP #12 - First of It's Kind

$RUG is a governance token for the SCAM Ecosystem (loosely stating this here, who knows what the official name for the Ecosystem itself will be) I believe it is time for the first RIP of its kind, bureaucracy.

It's apparent that many outlandish RIPs will continue to be proposed and some of which may be detrimental to the community at large. This leaves room for bad actors to decide the fate as the only real jurisdiction for if a RIP is valid to be voted on (aside from can it be implemented and when can it be implemented) is :

Title : RIP #? - subject Answer the questions of What is this RIP : Why should this be implemented : Where : and Who :

I believe we need to tighten this and lay down a sort of foundation that we can look back to reference how to proceed with a new proposal.

Our first LOR (Law of RIP) would have the rubric as follows for a RIP to not be deleted immediately by the Core team (as tagged by their address on snapshot) and is how the Core team should present their RIPs as well.

RUGs First LOR :

Title : RIP #? - subject Answer the questions of What is this RIP, what are the downsides to implementation? 2 reasons for each:

Why should this be implemented, why shouldn't it - 2 reasons for each :

Where this will be applied, where its effects will be felt -

Who does it benefit, how does it benefit them :

When should this take effect :

If your RIP is passed you will need to answer HOW it should be implemented if the Dev team is unable to do so.

[The time to vote should also be a minimum of 72-hours with a maximum of 120-hours to allow for everybody associated with the DAO ample time to vote.]

RUGs Second LOR :

Any RIP proposed on the snapshot that is NOT from the Core team and has passed the first LOR CAN be subjected to 2 revotes and a single counter RIP.

RUGs Third LOR :

All RIPs can be amended if they pass the first 2 LOR.

RUGs Fourth LOR :

For a RIP to go into effect it must be put up to a final vote on snapshot from a member of the Core Team. This is to make sure all new Official RIPs can be clearly distinguished from the rest of the noise.

I believe this benefits all members of the community as it keeps us honest and lays down enough of a foundation on how future proposals should look. It also ensures a level of understanding is needed to be met before doing something that impacts every member of the community, from RUG to SCAM. Also provides a fail-safe against any haphazard proposals being thrown up.

The downside to the implementation of this RIP is it becomes more of a hassle to propose something to the DAO. Another downside is the 3-day vote block doesn't allow for immediate issues/concerns to be resolved unless proposed by Core.

The whole point of this is to have agency and competence around what is being built by our brilliant team of DEVs and contributors. The rest is for us to figure out and break ground on. I believe my RIP pushes us in that direction as it also helps establish a sort of philosophy around what this is all for as well. The whole idea of crypto is to give power to the people. The leaders of this project have built us some of the frameworks to take action on this.

But that's for another day.
