> Overenforcement of rules would make this a very unnurturing place. The distraction of knowing whether one is violating a rule, at all times, can stifle imagination, thoughtfulness, and many valuable forms of expression that--while they wouldn't be sanctioned,-- would simply be precluded by the preoccupation with how the rules would apply to it.
Exactly. I don't think that it would be desirable at all. And how should all the posts be read when there are hundreds of posts and only a very limited number of people to do it, each of whom have other demands on their time? But I agree, I think it would be undesirable. It would make the board be focused on sanctions, not on support.sunnydays
