Of course there are rules. We try not to be heavy-handed about enforcement, and expect members to have a minimum of thick skin, and understand that things written in brief often appear to be brusker than the poster intended. I think everyone here can tell the difference between an insult, and a mere quick retort, so lighten up.

We can't seem to win either way, here. We enforce the rules strictly and we get accused of censorship, we give people some latitute and we get accused of negligence. Try walking a mile in our shoes before being critical of how we run things. You have it pretty damn good here.
