I think there are very bad consequences to making a general rule. If Dr. Bob is trying to solve a situation that frequently pops up, that applies to many posters, and that he has long wanted to address, that's fine.
In that case, I think he would definitely include my posts as problem posts, and I should just leave.
If Dr. Bob is implementing a general rule to solve a specific problem, I don't think that's a very wise thing to do at all. Usually in all situations there is an existing law that can be used. Making new laws to solve a single problem leads to the sort of Homeowners Association mentality that I can never bring myself to live with.
