Original discussion can be found here.
This is what Article III section 7a) says.
Code:
During turns 15 a thread shall be opened for nominations. Any citizen may
nominate any other citizen, including themselves, for any position that is up
for election. The nominee then must accept the nomination.
As it stands ATM, it means that every person who is nominated must accept the position. I think this is not ver democratic, because we want members to participate to the level they want to participate. So here are the changes to that part in bold.

This is a real easy issue to fix. This just makes the nomination process better for those who want to refuse a position.
 
The changes looks good to me :).
 
The last sentence "The nominee then must accept the nomination" could be interpeted as the nominee must accept it in order to be in the election.

as it should be.

It is not clear. This way it is clear how the person can respond. It is really just a technicality, but it makes it sure.
 
Since this is the second time we're visiting this issue I will relax my previous stance, and agree to the changes. Also, in one of the threads it someone obviously was under the impression that once nominated they were required to accept. This should end that confusion.
