= IV. Proposal Policy=
 * 1) Proposals, except proposals that seek to raise the passing threshold, must gain 51% support in order to be passed
 * 2) Proposals that seek to raise the passing threshold are required to meet their own proposed threshold
 * 3) Polls are not a valid deciding factor: Support, opposition, or neutrality gained through the usage of polls will not be factored into a proposal's final results. Polls can be easily manipulated/rigged and thus can not be trusted to accurately measure the community's opinion.
 * 4) Proposals must be open for at least a week: This is so all of the active members of the community have a chance to voice their opinions on the matter. Proposals closed before a week passes will be promptly re-opened and have their time extended.
 * 5) Proposals can't be open for more than three weeks: This is to prevent the unnecessary drawing out of voting periods.
 * 6) Shortening of voting lengths is prohibited: Only extensions may be made to a proposal's voting length. No shortening is allowed. This is to prevent users from deliberately deciding to close their proposals when the numbers are favorable to them.
 * 7) Any user can vote on any proposal: No matter their edit count, how long they've been on the wiki, or if the proposal revolves around them. They're still a part of the community and are allowed to vote. Sockpuppet accounts, user with a restricted right, roleplay accounts, bots and blocked users are excluded from this.
 * 8) Users can only be promoted or demoted once a supportive consensus is reached by the community: Users are not to be randomly appointed or fired. The community must form a supportive consensus before either of these things will happen. Users that have been promoted without consensus are excluded from this, and will be swiftly demoted.
 * 9) Users Cannot Add A Provision to a Proposal Two Days Before It's Closing: Exceptions include if another user requests the change to be added.
 * 10) Users cannot force or bribe someone to change their vote: If it was the user who proposed or not, forcing or bribing anyone to support or oppose a proposal is strictly prohibited. If you do it, 64 infraction points.

=V.Promotion Policy= General Requirements
