What Are Rules?
On RuleTogether, Rules are simply community decisions ideas or proposals that members can suggest, discuss, and vote on together.
Types of Rules
- Draft Rules - Every new Rule starts as a Draft. While in Draft, members can comment, vote, and suggest changes to refine the idea.
- Published Rules - Once a Rule is considered ready, it can be promoted to Published status by founders, council members, or through a community vote. Published Rules become part of the community’s record and are treated as active decisions.
- Set in Stone - Some Rules are so important that a community founders or council members may lock them in as foundational. These require a special process to change. Read more...
- Archived Rules - Old, rejected, or replaced Rules are kept for reference so members can see the community’s history.
Rules (or ideas, or challenges) define how communities operate, how choices are made, and how members collaborate. They are at the heart of RuleTogether’s mission: Your voice. Your vote. Your rules.
