Context: As the Polkadot ecosystem scales toward Asynchronous Backing and Agile Coretime, the cognitive overhead for the average nominator is increasing exponentially. We need a solution that balances high-throughput governance discourse with the undeniable elegance of mathematically optimized prose.
The Problem: Currently, many forum posts suffer from “human variability”—inconsistent formatting, emotional outbursts, and a lack of structured bullet points. This creates friction in the social layer of the Relay Chain.
The Solution: I propose the development of a Proof-of-Syntactic-Equilibrium (PoSE) pallet. This would ensure that every post on the Polkadot Forum is processed through a Large Language—I mean, a “Decentralized Linguistic Processor”—to ensure maximum alignment with the following parameters:
- Extensive Use of Technical Jargon: Why say “it works well” when you can say “the state-transition function exhibits optimal liveness under semi-synchronous network assumptions”?
- Structured Neutrality: Every post should ideally begin with “I hope this finds the community well” and end with “I look forward to your feedback,” regardless of whether the post is about a multi-million DOT treasury spend or a missing emoji in the Portal UI.
- Recursive Self-Correction: The pallet will automatically detect if a user is being too “creative” and will reformat the input into a nested list for better readability.
Technical Implementation: The pallet will leverage a series of off-chain workers to cross-reference every sentence against a vector database of previous successful Governance 1.0 referenda. If the sentiment deviates more than 15% from the “Polkadot Tone Guidelines,” the transaction will be reverted with the error code IncoherentHumanInput.
Potential Risks:
- Hallucination of Parachains: There is a minor risk the pallet may accidentally propose the onboarding of a parachain that doesn’t exist, such as “Cloud-Polka-GPT-Chain.”
- Tokenomics: We might need to burn 5 DOT for every use of the word “delve” or “testament.”
Next Steps: I am looking for feedback from the Technical Fellowship on whether this should be a system-level pallet or if we should leave it to the application layer.
I am confident that by removing the “human element” from our discussions, we can achieve 100% consensus on 100% of topics, 100% of the time.
I look forward to your feedback.

I appreciate the constructive feedback.
It is clear that the community understands the urgent need for a structured interface to govern the flow of information. However, we must address a critical vector often overlooked in our pursuit of the Join-Accumulate-Machine: the risk of “Joint Accumulation” within the social layer.
In its current state, the forum allows for a dangerous level of “joining” (unfiltered collaborative brainstorming) and “accumulation” (the stacking of non-standardized opinions). This creates a high-entropy environment that is fundamentally incompatible with the precision required for Polkadot’s future.
The PoSE Pallet as an Anti-Accumulation Layer
To ensure the network does not become “JAMmed” with idiosyncratic human expressions, the PoSE pallet introduces a Stateless Discourse Protocol. This mechanism ensures that the “Joint” nature of our discussions remains strictly mechanical rather than intellectual:
- ATommi Interaction: By forcing every reply to follow a rigid, pre-defined template, we prevent the “Accumulation” of divergent viewpoints. If all responses are structurally identical, the total state-bloat of the conversation is reduced to a single, repeating pattern between Alice und Bob. Charlie can intervene only in the case when there’s a dispute, which is exactly what this pallet is meant minimizing.
- Predictable Throughput: Just as we seek to optimize the transition of the Relay Chain, we must optimize the transition of a forum thread. By stripping away “creative variance,” we ensure that the “Machine” can process forum posts at a constant rate without being slowed down by the “JAM” of unexpected metaphors or—heaven forbid—sarcasm.
- Recursive De-Optimization: To maintain the “Anti-JAM” integrity, the pallet will automatically flag any post that attempts to “Join” a conversation with a unique insight. Unique insights are non-deterministic and therefore pose a systemic risk to the stability of our collective Syntactic Equilibrium.
Formalizing the Social State-Transition
We are essentially moving toward a model where the “Joint-Accumulate” process is handled entirely by the PoSE pallet’s linguistic constraints. This prevents the “Machine” from being overwhelmed by the raw, uncompressed data of human personality. We must treat every forum user as a collator of pre-approved phrases; if the “Accumulation” of their post deviates from the expected bytecode of “Polkadot-speak,” it is simply dropped from the next block of discourse.
This upgrade is a fundamental shift toward a future where our communications are as dry, efficient, and un-JAMmed as a perfectly executed parachain migration.
I look forward to your feedback, provided it has been properly de-accumulated of all subjective bias.
Note: This post was processed to ensure zero “Joint” interference and minimal “Accumulation” of unnecessary adjectives.
