In the ONO social network, we have designed a new kind of system in order to achieve better transparency & decentralization, less plagiarism & spam and more social cohesiveness. As we have seen in many central and decentralized systems, when there is too much opaqueness with regard to how moderators are chosen for social spaces, (just look at what happened to censorship in Bitcoin forums) problems become unmanageable and people end up leaving the platform.
ONO will have an entirely new concept called Super Partners.
The first generation of Super Partners will be chosen by the founder. But thereafter, each Super Partner will be voted in or out, based on community votes. There will be 51 Super Partners and the system is similar to the Block Producer roles within Delegated Proof of Stake systems. In this case, however, the Super Partners will have social, content managing and community duties as their main function. The Super Partners are the most critical role within ONO and they will receive the highest compensation.
The first generation of Super Partners are now being selected, so if you or someone you know fits this description, please add a comment below and @stellabelle will follow up with you.
7.5 Super Partners
Super Partners are the loyal guardians of ONO’s values and are the main people responsible for the quality of the social atmosphere. Not only that, the Super Partners are required to educate new users about ONO and its values, and also assist in developing more community partners and volunteers.
The mission of the Super Partners is to maintain the security, freedom and decentralization of the ONO social network, extract harmful content, prevent abusive behavior from spreading, and transmit ONO values to others. This will be the main mechanism for the ONO social network to flourish.
Super Partners should be: loyal, kind, self-aware, humble, dedicated to a long-term vision and committed to serving all of humanity.
Punishment
In the ONO social network, the content ecosystem is a crucial component. Optimizing the quality of content and reducing the amount of harmful content that users pay attention to is extremely important. We can use a reputation mechanism to promote the creation of high-quality content as well as curb the proliferation of low-quality content. We can settle case disputes through referendums. However, there is still the problem of lack of efficiency in judging the content of the common program.
Communication and Incentives
Undoubtedly, the role of the Super Partner will assume important responsibilities and will also receive a large amount of ONOT incentives. However, it is worth mentioning that the Super Partners need to reasonably distribute the ONOT obtained according to the operational requirements.
In order to ensure the safety of users in social networks and the sustainable development of the Super Partner system, the Super Partners’ real information and operational data will be required to be published publicly. Any user who is not doing the required work or who is abusive, will be able to be voted out by the community.
First Generation Super Partners
The first generation of Super Partners will commence in April 2018. At that time, the ONO social network will still be in development and therefore, Super Partners will not be electable. But ONO’s guidelines state that Super Partners are required for the community.
Early trust and support are important components for social networks. ONO is especially grateful for the first generation of Super Partners and the communities that help construct the social atmosphere of ONO.
There are many different opportunities in ONO. Community partners and volunteers can apply to become first generation Super Partners. Super Partners can voluntarily decide to step down but they cannot transfer their title to others.
In this beginning phase, there will be 51 Super Partners who embody ONO’s values and who are willing to contribute to the early development of the ONO social network. In order to ensure that the process is truly open and transparent, ONO will publish the activities and associated data of the Super Partners’ work.
Super Partner Alternates
In addition to the community partners and volunteers, the Super Partners also create a Super Partners Alternate list. Alternative Super Partners are also selected by community partners/volunteers. When the Super Partners in the trial phase are appointed or removed, the alternate Super Partners will fill in the vacancies.
Trial Mechanism
Due to the special nature of the first generation Super Partners, the Super Partners will be in a trial phase before the first community voting occurs. During this trial phase, any Super Partners who have not fulfilled their responsibilities will be appointed or removed.
Appointment and Removal Mechanism
In order to ensure the safety of users in social networks and the sustainable development of the Super Partnership system, the Super Partners’ real-life information and operations in ONO will be required to be published. Any user may impeach a Super Partner if he or she does not work or does evil.
Transparent Documentation of Activities
According to ONO’s philosophy, and in order to ensure that the work of the Super Partners is open and transparent on the ONO platform, the daily activities (number of teams, the workload, number of rewards, etc.) of the Super Partners will be published. This will be done to ensure that ONO users can clearly understand the amount and quality of work of each Super Partner so they can decide if the Super Partner should be voted in or out at the next general election.
At the same time, ONO will organize Super Partners weekly and monthly meetings. Each Super Partner will submit work reports on the activities, including but not limited to the team building situation, problems encountered, and community feedback. The meeting will be documented publicly. This transparent system reflects the determination of the ONO team and Super Partners to jointly build and improve the social ecosystem.
Incentives
The ONO team will take out a fixed amount of ONOTs each day from the reward pool to give to the Super Partners in the trial phase as a reward for their efforts.
ONO implements a re-election system for Super Partners. According to the “ONO Super Partner General Election System” of that year, the list of Super Partners is updated each year. The first generation Super Partners will hold a general election in October 2018. At that time, they will open the election and rely on the referendum to conduct the election.
Election Mechanism
ONO has detailed procedures for the Super Partner election.
Candidates:
On the basis of free and decentralized community governance, ONO will issue a statement about the the general election, reasons, various times/dates, the number of members in the next term, and the method of election. Interested parties may openly disclose application materials that meet the election rules in any channel. They may publish campaign statements and declarations through any channel.
Objection Period
ONO will collect qualified candidates and make public announcements on a regular basis. There will be a period of time before the formal voting results are announced. During this period, the user can initiate a dissenting statement against the candidate through a referendum, and finally determine whether or not he/she will continue to have the position according to the result of the referendum.
Eligibility for election and Referendum:
When the objection period ends, all new candidate channels will be frozen and everyone can vote for support for the candidate who has been publicized.
Elected:
When the referendum period ends, according to the results of the vote, ONO will announce the list of winners and give them the title of Super Partner. From the date of election, all new Super Partners will begin to implement Super Partners’ work and carry out the ONO mission.
Withdrawal
Super Partners are eligible to withdraw at any time. After the withdrawal, they will be replaced by an alternative Super Partner. The monthly bonus will be calculated on a daily basis. If they apply for withdrawal during the election period, they will lose their current election eligibility.
Options
From the referendum, according to the results of the poll, ONO will select candidates who did not get enough votes to be Super Partners and place them on a list of alternative Super Partners. In the case when the number of Super Partners is less than 51 due to withdrawal or dismissal, the alternate Super Partners must fill the vacancies according to the number of votes they received.
Appointment and Removal Mechanism
In order to prevent the Super Partners from committing evil as well as to protect the safety, freedom, and decentralization of all people in the ONO social network, we set up a mechanism for the appointment and removal of Super Partners.
Everyone can refer to the “hiding of content rules” and referendum in order to resolve the controversy. That is, if a Super Partner does not hide abusive user content arbitrarily according to the “Hiding Rules”, then the Super Partner will soon be voted on.
If the Super Partner loses more than 75% and exceeds 3 times in the order for the relevant appeal, the super-partner will be restricted from his or her content hiding rights on that day. If the Super Partner is punished more than three times, the SP is deemed to have committed an evil act and is removed from the list of Super Partners.
In this way, it is ensured that the job of hiding abusive content remains to be effective and sustainable for the network.
Formal Super Partner Incentive
The main work of the early Super Partners is managing and hiding abusive content. ONO will reward Super Partners with 2% of the total daily ONOT as a reward for their work and efforts.
Hiding Content Rules
The hiding content rule is a rule for ensuring that the Super Partners can work better and collaborate with each other to reach agreement. Like the “ONO Social Network Common Program”, it will be continuously optimized and iterated.
Content that does not conform to the “ONO Social Networking Common Program” should be hidden.
In order to protect the diversity of content, content must not be hidden according to personal wishes or preferences of the Super Partners.
If content is found to be contentious, the Super Partner is responsible for initiating a referendum to resolve the dispute.
Users have the right to appeal their hidden content and find a solution to their dispute.

7.5 超级合伙人
超级合伙人是社交网络价值观的忠实守护者，是危害社交网络内容的处决者。不仅如此，超级合伙人有义务将ONO及其价值观传递、科普，发展和协助更多社群合伙人及志愿者。
超级合伙人的使命是维护ONO社交网络的安全、自由与去中心化，有害内容的处决、用户作恶的阻止、ONO价值观的传递。这将是ONO社交网络繁荣发展的前提。
超级合伙人应当是：忠诚的、善良的、自控的、谦虚的、有长远眼光与坚定信仰的，为全人类服务的。
惩罚与处决
在ONO社交网络中，内容生态体系是重要的组成部分，优化内容质量，减少有害内容消耗用户的注意力价值，其重要性是显而易见的。我们可以通过声誉机制以“无形的手”促进内容的高质量诞生，遏制低质量内容泛滥；可以通过全民投票来解决案例争议 — — 但，违反共同纲领的内容判断上依旧存在效率不足的问题。
当出现明显不符合《ONO社交网络共同纲领》的内容，需要立即被折叠时，所有人需要超级合伙人以超短时间完成这项工作，防止社交网络被污染。
ONO为超级合伙人提供了高效的协作处决方式，超级合伙人可以通过Web端管理后台/移动端管理后台进行对违反共同纲领内容的处决。
传播与激励
毋庸置疑，超级合伙人这个角色将承担重要责任，也将获得大量的ONOT激励。但，值得一提的是，超级合伙人需要根据作业需求，合理对获得的ONOT进行分配。
为了确保社交网络内用户的安全，超级合伙人制度的可持续发展，超级合伙人的真实资料与作业情况将被要求公示，一旦出现超级合伙人不作业或作恶，任意用户均可对其进行弹劾。
第一批的超级合伙人与试任
第一批的超级合伙人诞生于2018年4月，此时的ONO社交网络还没有完成启动，无法通过全民投票进行选举。但正如处决章节所说，ONO社交网络需要超级合伙人。
早期的信任与支持对社交网络来说是不可忽视的重要组成部分，出于ONO对首批支持者的感谢，第一批的超级合伙人仅对已经对ONO早期建设做出贡献的社群合伙人及志愿者开放申请。社群合伙人及志愿者可以申请成为第一批的超级合伙人，该权利可被主动放弃，但不可转让于他人。
在此阶段，将出现51位符合ONO价值观且愿意为ONO社交网络早期的建设付出、契合ONO价值观的超级合伙人。为了保证过程真实公开透明，ONO将对其真实资料及会议过程进行公示。
备选
超级合伙人除了社群合伙人及志愿者以外，还设立了备选名单。备选超级合伙人同样是由社群合伙人/志愿者选出。当处于试任阶段的超级合伙人被任免时，备选超级合伙人将按照顺位依次补位空缺名额。
试任机制
由于第一批的超级合伙人的性质特殊，在首次超级合伙人换届选举前的任职期间为超级合伙人试任阶段。在此试任阶段，任何未满足职责要求的超级合伙人将被任免。
任免机制
为了确保社交网络内用户的安全，超级合伙人制度的可持续发展，超级合伙人的真实资料与作业情况将被要求公示，一旦出现超级合伙人不作业或作恶，任意用户均可对其进行弹劾。
定时公示
根据公开、自由的用户意向，为了保证超级合伙人的工作公开、透明、可被监督，在ONO平台，每天超级合伙人的工作情况将会被公示，如团队人数、工作量、发放奖励数量等。所有ONO用户可根据工作情况清晰了解每位超级合伙人的工作能力和产出，以决定在下一场换届选举投票时的投票意向。
同时，ONO将定时组织超级合伙人的周会及月会，由每位超级合伙人进行工作汇报，包括但不限于团队建设情况、遇到的问题和需要的协作，会议将会被公示，以体现ONO团队和超级合伙人共同建设和完善超级合伙人体系的决心。
激励机制
ONO将会从生态激励池中拿出每天固定数额的ONOT授予试任阶段的超级合伙人，作为对超级合伙人付出努力的回报。
激励类别
正式超级合伙人机制
ONO对于超级合伙人实行换届选举制，根据该年的《ONO超级合伙人大选制度》，每年更新超级合伙人的名单。第一批超级合伙人将于2018年10月进行换届选举，届时将开放竞选入口，依靠全民投票进行选举。
选举机制
ONO对于超级合伙人大选有详细的程序：
参选：
ONO会根据自由、去中心化的用户意向，发布大选换届的声明、原因、各时间点、下届成员名额及选举方式，有意向竞选者可在任何渠道公开符合大选规则的申请资料，并可通过任何渠道发布竞选声明及宣言；
异议诉讼期：
ONO将定期收集符合条件的候选人并作公示，距离正式的票选结果还有一段时间，这段时间内，用户可通过全民投票发起对候选人异议声明，最终根据全民投票结果判断其是否继续拥有竞选资格。
全民投票期：
当异议诉讼期结束，所有新的候选通道将被冻结，所有人都可以对已被公示的候选人进行支持投票。
当选：
当全民投票期结束，根据投票结果，ONO将公布超级合伙人名单，并授予超级合伙人称号。自当选日起，所有新任超级合伙人将开始执行超级合伙人工作与使命。
退选
超级合伙人及超级合伙人候选人可在任何时期退选，退选后按自然顺位交由备选超级合伙人接替，当月奖励按自然日计算发放。如在竞选期间申请退选，则失去当期竞选资格。
备选
全民投票起结束后，根据投票结果，ONO将筛选出但因票数不够未被选中成为超级合伙人的候选人，按票数排序列入备选超级合伙人名单。当后续超级合伙人中出现退选、任免等行为，导致超级合伙人不足51人时，备选超级合伙人须按照票数顺位依次补位空缺名额。
任免机制
为了防止超级合伙人作恶，保障ONO社交网络内所有人的安全、自由、去中心化，我们设定了超级合伙人的任免机制：
- 根据《折叠规则》与全民投票来解决出现的争议。即，如果一个超级合伙人没有根据《折叠规则》任意折叠用户内容，那么这位超级合伙人将很快被投票投决；
- 如果当日该超级合伙人在相关申诉完成的订单中败诉比例超过75%且超过3次，将会被限制其当日的折叠权限。如果惩罚超过3次，则认定为作恶行为，将其从超级合伙人名单中移除。
以此，确保内容折叠的功能是被有效利用的。
正式超级合伙人激励机制
早期超级合伙人的主要工作体现为内容的折叠管理。ONO将拿出每日增发ONOT总额的2%，用于授予超级合伙人ONOT，作为对超级合伙人付出努力的回报。
激励类别
折叠规则
折叠规则是为了保证超级合伙人能够更好地开展工作，共同拟定并彼此达成共识的规则，它与《ONO社交网络共同纲领》一样，将被不断优化与迭代。
- 不符合《ONO社交网络共同纲领》的内容应当被折叠；
- 为了保护内容多样性，不得根据个人意愿或喜好折叠内容；
- 如果发现有争议的内容，超级合伙人有责任对其发起案例争议全民投票；
- 用户将保留对其被折叠内容的申诉权；
