We've sort of already established that despite the thread's rocky start, it is becoming a genuine discussion of the issues.No, but I disagree with your assessment of the discussion which seems quite heavily focused on the intent and judgement of the moderators over the course of the fifth and sixth pages of the thread.
Do you think it's wrong to disagree with the rules?
I think it is because the rules are quite written quite vaguely, and are very open to interpretation.
And interpretation that if you interpret differently compared to a mod, is 1/10 of the way towards a /permanent/ ban in a year.
So many people, including myself, are arguing for either more concise rules, or looser interpretations of them, which acknowledge the context of posts.
I prefer looser interpretations, which we had before, and everything seemed to work out ok.
Oh, and I also believe the permanent ban system should be on a case by case basis, instead of a set rule.
