Linux and the X wrote:Really, the instarepeal is not something new. Historically, it has been well-used. The trouble is the huge number of semi-active members (some of whom are delegates of large regions) that do not pay attention to the debate thread. They see a great-looking argument in the proposal, so they vote for it without hearing the other side. Then they see the repeal, which of course also has a great argument. They forget how great the resolution's argument was and vote for the repeal.

No, there is certainly a category for bulletproof resolutions --> repeals, you cannot repeal them.

I'm fairly sure that it won't actually submit. Of course, even if it did, I'm guessing it'd be monstrously hilarious.

As in like an amendment? You do know that amendments are illegal, right?
