Or more properly, who decides? I've seen no one even faintly resembling a saint here (me included, Illiad also), and so I can't even remotely conceive of a wording which would work for that.
So often I've seen reasonable sources derided as bunk, and unreasonable sources swallowed whole, because someone's bias leaned that way. (Kickstart's and DR66's political discussions might be instructive that way. Not just, or even mostly, them, but a lot of contributors.) Even the best of us have some of that in 'em.
I know Kickstart said there's no expectation of it becoming a written rule, but the very discussion of such a rule chills me. I guarantee I'd become one of its first casualties, probably before I'd even run foul of it. (I'd almost certainly stop posting.)
Slamming fools over the head with their own foolishness works far better that any rule ever could. Completely ignoring the poster is even MORE effective. I saw the thread which probably spawned this very bad idea, and either of those methods would've worked with the poster. |
