For real? These things exist? You would be a statistical anomaly if you followed your own rules and don’t ban people for whatever personal reason.
I mean I’d like to believe and I believe by default so I will try to take this site on the internet more seriously.

Welcome to the world of statistical anomalies. If we banned people on a whim, you’d already be gone.

Thanks for the welcome and I just glanced at your forum rules. My initial reaction first of all is : Oh My God.
You have too many rules but they’re standard to most boards and this will raise some more questions from me.
I see trolling, disruptions or derailing on almost every thread on the internet and here lies the conundrum: are you going to police every thread or are you going to leave it alone. Maybe you’ll react on only when people report. Even then you might ignore the reports because you may protect your friends here and their egos. If you don’t act on it then why the rule?
I’m speaking from experience here by the way which is why I’m asking these questions.
You also have etiquette rules which I personally find even more ridiculous to enforce since they’re in the grey area and mostly get acted upon by friends or groups of friends not because The Rule was broken.

What do you think about all these preliminary ideas?
