Proposal: Just nitpicking

Times out/passes 4-0. Enacted by Brendan.

In the rule 3.2 “Gamestate Tracking”, change

No entry may be more than one of the following official types of post: Votable Matters, and Idling Post.

to

Any single official post cannot be of two different types of official post unless a rule explicitly states otherwise.

Idling Post was removed from the glossary back in 2012, but the term somehow survived in the ruleset. Proposed substitute is from arthexis’s comment on the proposal that introduced this restriction

against It’s a valid fix, but “official post” isn’t as far as I can tell defined, and therefore “types of official post” is a meaningless distinction.

“Posts following the format specified by a rule are considered official posts.”
Other than this, there is no definition indeed
