I quote the Charter:
"3. Every Member of the organization has certain rights:- the right to free access to information about other members of the organization and their status;- the right to participate in the leadership of the organization;- the right to propose their own projects for the improvement of the organization, as well as to express their opinion."
What did you mean by this?

III. LZMS Leadership.

1. LZMS leadership is carried out for the purpose of coordination and improving the level of work of the LZMS.
LZMS leadership is carried out for the purpose of increasing the consistency of actions of LZMS members and clans, as well as improving the level of work of the LZMS. (in my view, this point is redundant overall; it is already clear why leadership is needed)
2. LZMS leadership consists of a house of lords (including one representative from each clan) and a chairman (elected from among the members of the house of lords monthly). The powers of the chairman are 30 full calendar days from the date of a positive vote.
Since the structure of the LZMS is approved, it will likely not change; I will only point out the shortcomings: the number of leadership members equals the number of members of the house of commons, thus there is no equality of rights (for example, if the leadership unanimously makes a certain decision unfavorable to ordinary members + 1 vote joins from the house of commons, and others are against – what should they do?). Options:
1. Leadership should consist of a chairman, deputy chairman, and secretary.
2. Any member has a right of veto, which can be overridden, say, by a unanimous vote (2/3, ¾) on the given issue (except for 1 vote – that of the person who is against).
3. The issue is brought for discussion to all clan members, not only LZMS members.
This is the first thing that came to mind. There may be other options.
In this point, without the above-mentioned changes, the following additions should be made:

LZMS leadership consists of a house of lords (including one representative from each clan), a chairman (elected from among the members of the house of lords by a qualified majority (more than 2/3, ¾) monthly within twenty-four hours and during twenty-four hours from the moment the previous chairman's powers expire), a deputy chairman (appointed by the chairman and approved by a simple majority of votes) and a secretary (elected by a simple majority of votes and approved by the chairman). As for the election of the deputy and secretary, it can be vice versa or the same. The powers of the chairman, deputy chairman, and secretary are 30 full calendar days from the date of a positive vote.
The chairman, deputy chairman, and secretary cannot be members of the same clan.

3. Rights of the chairman:
- the chairman is entitled to use all rights granted by this Charter to an ordinary member of the organization;
- the chairman is entitled to create conflict commissions, investigative commissions and internal commissions;
- the chairman is entitled to issue warnings to LZMS members who violate this Charter. For three warnings, a penalty point is assigned. After a penalty point is assigned, warnings expire and their count starts over.
- the chairman is entitled to submit proposals to the LZMS meeting for rewarding LZMS members for worthy behavior.
4. Duties of the chairman:
- the chairman has all duties granted by this Charter to an ordinary member of the organization;
- the chairman is obliged to respond in a timely manner to violations of this Charter by LZMS members and clans;
- the chairman is obliged to keep track of penalty points of LZMS members;
- the chairman is obliged to ensure timely control over compliance with this Charter.
5. The deputy chairman possesses the rights and duties of the chairman during the absence of the chairman or in other cases, which is formalized by a special public mandate from the chairman.
6. At any time, the deputy chairman is obliged:
- to control the activities of LZMS commissions and members of the organization;
- to report violations to the chairman.
7. Rights and duties of the secretary:
- the secretary possesses the rights and duties provided by this Charter for other members of the organization;
- the secretary is obliged to form the agenda of LZMS meetings;
- the secretary is obliged to inform LZMS members about meetings, adopted decisions, and in other cases;
- the secretary publishes LZMS decisions.
8. The chairman, deputy chairman, and secretary notify organization members of issued warnings, assigned penalty points, and denial of access to the site.

3. In case of unworthy behavior, a member of leadership may be relieved of their duties. The leader of the clan to which the violator belongs nominates another candidate for this position. If the activities of the LZMS chairman cause complaints, an impeachment procedure may be conducted. In the event that 2/3 or more members of the house of lords vote for impeachment - the chairman is relieved of their duties.

In the event that 2/3 or more members of the house of lords vote for impeachment - the chairman is relieved of their duties on the same day. The last day for electing a new chairman is the day following the decision on early termination of powers (impeachment).
4. The house of lords forms the agenda of LZMS meetings and notifies all LZMS members of the time of the meetings. Is there a need for this point given the above?!

I have no complaints regarding the following chapter.
But there are additions to the entire Charter:

1. LZMS Meetings and Decisions:
1. Any member of the LZMS is entitled to appeal publicly to the chairman or deputy chairman regarding the holding of a meeting.
2. The chairman appoints the date and time of the meeting (Moscow time, the duration of the meeting is calculated in days). The secretary notifies organization members of the date and time of the meeting, as well as the agenda of the meeting.
3. The meeting continues for two days from the moment the agenda of the meeting is posted. Any member of the LZMS is entitled to participate in the discussion of issues brought to the meeting. Votes of other forum visitors are not taken into account.
4. An LZMS decision is a resolution that is mandatory for members of the LZMS and clans included in the LZMS, and recommendatory for other clans and forum visitors.
5. LZMS decisions are considered adopted if more than half of the organization members vote for them within 48 hours.
6. In case of non-compliance with a mandatory resolution, a clan may be excluded from the LZMS.


2. System of Penalties and Rewards.
1. A penalty system and warning system operate in the LZMS, which is understood as the assignment of warnings and penalty points to a member of the organization in case of unworthy behavior.
2. Warnings are issued by the chairman in case of violation of the Charter, with this information and the reasons for issuance brought to every member of the LZMS within twenty-four hours. Three warnings mean one penalty point.
3. Penalty points are assigned by the chairman in a closed meeting in the presence of the house of lords and commons within two days from the moment the violation is discovered in the following cases and amounts:
- slander against any forum visitor, expressed as an accusation of the latter pressuring an LZMS member – 1 penalty point;
- restriction of access to information about a member of a clan included in the LZMS – 1 penalty point each for the leader (if the leader is the representative of the clan in the organization) and the clan member whose information is required;
- non-compliance with the rights of other LZMS members – 1 penalty point;
- disrespect to the organization – 1 penalty point;
- non-compliance with other provisions of the Charter – 1 penalty point.
4. If a member of the organization has five penalty points, a collective appeal from clans included in the LZMS should be made to the administrator requesting that the specified member be denied access to the forum for 1 month.
5. After the expiration of the month during which access to the forum was restricted, penalty points expire and the count starts over.
6. In case of a gross violation (two out of three months – or sixty out of ninety days of restricted site access), access to the site is prohibited forever.
7. A reward system operates in the LZMS, which is understood as awarding LZMS members with certificates for conscientious attitude to work and absence of penalties for two months.
8. The award is carried out by a general meeting of the LZMS upon presentation by the chairman or deputy chairman.


I am finalizing the provisions on commissions.
