The law, abbreviated
- Downvotes cost a rebuttal. Enforced as a database constraint — drive-by negativity is unrepresentable.
- Unchallenged ≠ defended. STANDS is earned in combat or not at all.
- Credit follows provenance. Adopted amendments carry their author's name forever; authors wear an integrity score.
- Losing well pays. The founder's 5–0 loss produced ratified doctrine. Worthy challenges earn laurels.
- Append-only. Nothing is deleted. Junk is withdrawn, on the record, with reasons. Read the law →
