On one hand RevdKathy knows I value the help provided by her and others who chose to include resource links in their signatures.
On the other I think that can be accomplished without skirting the current limit on signature lines.
RevdKathy, could you just move the last line next to your Maemo Greeter intro, right after the smiley? Should do the trick.
As for infraction points, I think some of the suggestions for the thread in question are a bit much, but I'll try to look through it later and see. I was hoping members could just self-moderate after knowing the rules. Ah well.
*sigh*
My point was that there is yet another thread going over the same old rants, the same old FUD, the same old unsubstantiated claims, and dare I say it, the same people rising to the bait. But now we actually have a method for dealing with the stuff.
I seem to remember saying that the rules could make T.M.O. a nice place to be again.

Next: moderators get accused of being Nazis for doling out infraction points. Youtube video at 11.

I think that T.M.O. has been a fairly nice place recently. I think that the problem is that the powers that be can't recognize success and don't know when to stop.
Having big threads on the actual meaning of the rules and how important they are can't be a good way to proceed. Maybe you should just dispatch assassins and take out the worst infractors? Whatever, the rules should be as invisible as possible.

I knew I could count on you to fill the hyperbole quota, geneven. Just glad I didn't bet Nazis versus assassins.
