    See, these are rules I like because anyone with a clear mind and a good conscience could put these 4 to good use. However, as I recall you want specific rules that are clear. Definitions.

    Example:

    3) What is intent? How do display intent? What exactly is harassing?

    You and I both know what rule three means. But we need (according to you) to set specific guidelines on how to define these words. Also, there are many kinds of harassment. What if it happened one time and it's mild ("You are ugly" and end of story) or one time and it's severe ("I'm going to cut your throat")? What if it's mild and happens an X number times? Is it more severe than if it happened X-1 times? Should we have banned at X-1? Where do we draw the line for immediate banning? How long should the ban be for every possible instance?

    I think it's best to have general rules (as you have it) and not worry so much about every possible case to consider consequences. Everyone that has been on the Internet long enough to stumble upon a forum should have SOME sense of netiquette. A member will know (at least in theory) when they post something that might not be tolerated. A moderator should know when the line is crossed.

    What do you think is more important: the forest or the trees?

    I know exactly what the answers may be. Depending on which way you answer, I will know exactly where you are coming from and how we differ.

    No really for you. You seem to think that trees and forests have anything to do with effective moderation. Even imaplank managed to pass the test of wits without going to illogical convulsions that you seem to be experiencing.

    I gave the exact same answers that Imaplank gave.. however I tried to explain the reality of it. Something you failed to see.

    This is cool skill. Everyone agree?

    The forest/trees example was me trying to figure out how you view the world. Do you think the overall system is important or ever single peice is just as important as all the others. I think you would go with the latter, but because you claim it is irrelevent, you fail to see connections.

    In my opinion, anyway.

    I'll give you a C for effort.

    You did no such thing regarding explaining the "reality" of it. You failed because you failed to see the reality of it. Furthermore, you are using mass manipulated connotations regarding the term "reality". Society has a zombified tendancy to call anything negative "reality". Something bad happened. Woops that's just the reality. DO NOT USE REALITY IN MORONIC connotations.

    I have explained far more than I needed to, and you still do not know anything. Imaplank seemed to have effectively figured it out. You are too obsessed with idiotic and false connotations of "reality" to know real reality which is attained by successfully completing the test of wits.

    I refer to the reality of what is possible, not that when things suck "get over it."

    Obviously not because you failed miserably.
    The test clearly indicates that you failed clear thinking objectivity, and insteald abide by bias, abuse, corruption, and lack of competence.

    It must be hard to do that degree when you fail at clear, objective thinking, Absane.

    People do it anyway. Unless you are totally stupid enough to imply that it takes clear objective thinking to complete a degree which any moron can do. It goes to show how really pea sized your brain is.

    Yes.
    Probably not you considering your lack of ability to reason reasonably.

    If you don't take into account members' reputations, eg the popularity of a particular member, as well as length of membership, how on earth can you make a judgement on which members you can get away with banning and which you can't? What you propose might be fair, lixluke. But it just isn't practical.
