What about when a post is reported and is ignored or no explanation given for the ignoring of the reported post by a moderator?.
Should be always a reason given if no action taken against a reported post.

What about private messages?
Do any of these rules extend to pm's??

These policies seem designed to protect Nokia and maximize the power of moderators. Since we know that both are beyond reproach, these goals are entirely appropriate.

Such a fascist hoopla for nothing. Actually i've never ever encountered any foul language, attacks, insults or any other neatly listed issue here at TMO. My biggest concern is the tricky trolling and fanboyism.

From OP:
The following rules apply to any post, submission, or other type of communication a member makes in talk.maemo.org.
I interpret this as covering PMs too.

Fascist? Really? Did you look up the word "fascist" before making your comment?

Rules aren't "fascist" per definition, as you are implying.

I like this idea. You could even take it a step further by giving a few rotating community members "mentor" status and be assigned new posters. Their job would be not only to manually approve the new poster's initial 10 or so posts, but also to provide helpful feedback on what is an isn't an appropriate question/comment.

So a new poster tries to post a question thats been answered 10 thousand times before, and the "mentor" would kindly direct that user towards the search. That would make the community seem 10 times nicer since we wouldn't be jumping all over new posters while simultaneously making smarter forum-goers.

And, this coming from someone who had to bear with an IP rotation ISP for a couple of years, it can be pretty harmful, too.

You wouldn't want to know how many forums "I" was banned from just because some total stranger - who happened to have been yesterday's owner of my current IP address - had misbehaved.

I disagree. Posting Nokia should do this, and Nokia sux and whatever they post has got me tired. They are not saying do not post against Nokia. They are just saying go annoy them in their forums. Perfectly reasonable.

You mean to tell me you are not seriously tired of seeing the same useless threads over and over again?

There is no universal definition of this term, so i think your interpretation is rather biased.
