for what it is worth...
There has been a looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong discussion of small boards.
I think the idea is that if peoples continue posting their thoughts on them being devisive and co then people may be a little afraid to join up worrying about what the other posters may think of them.
Not that it follows from the point that people don't like small boards to the point that people don't like the people who post to small boards.
But sometimes we need to take (fairly predictable) irrational responses into account as well.
You didn't get blocked, Toph, you got warned. I think it is a new application of civility rules to apply it to peoples feelings about small boards. See, for example
