Does it break a rule? Infraction.Â
But it does feel like there are two camps growing out of this, the ones that want tighter moderation and those that want looser. I doubt anyone is going to be really happy with either outcome.
I'm all for strict interpretation of reasonable rules, so long as permanent bans are a special case scenario.
Though obviously I prefer the looser interpretation (how it has been in the past) better.
In most cases I think repeat offenses are the special case scenario. It's not normal for a person to accumulate strikes and told specifically what the problem is. The current issue I have stems from the fact that the problem isn't specific, if it was a lot of the problems would be more cut and dry.
Maybe it would be more appropriate to allow meme image responses in the off topic forum.
