Hmmm.. Maybe we should leave the "are not officials" in there. They are NO officials of the demogame and have no ingame authority except forum modding... That paragraph does not mean they can not be leaders....!
I think only paragraph 4 should be changed...

#3 was changed because it was useless. It was a carryover from Ducky's original rules and simply meant that Mods weren't automatically officials in the game simply because they were mods. Since we've detailed the positions allowed in the new legislation, the original #3 is completely redundant.
