Add an INFRARED rule entitled “Slander” with text as follows:

Slander is disharmonious, which leads to unhappiness.  Accordingly, any Citizen who posts a blog post that constitutes slander of a Citizen will have his Treason score increased by one.  A statement is slanderous if (1) any Citizen with a Clearance Level of Violet or higher says so in a comment to that blog post, or (2) the statement satisfies such requirements as are issued in a blog post from time to time by a Citizen with a Clearance Level of Green or higher that have not been superseded by a subsequent blog post by a Citizen with a higher Clearance Level.

Anyone who says that this concept could lead to conflicting, ambiguous or inconsistent standards clearly does not have sufficient faith in the High Programmer, in which case therapy and re-education would be suitable remedies.

against This is only important for newcomers (at least at the moment), isn‘t it? Also, the second part *is* ambiguous, what does “from time to time” mean?

I would for a more clear proposal considering more Citizen.
