I'll say one last thing
A forum is a village, and like it or not, it only runs as as well as its villagers. there's elders and chiefs who enact the rules which are all agreed upon by each villager when they step through the gates. Signing up grants you one singular thing, entry. If other villagers think you're a fuck, then those villagers may act up and act hostile towards you, because those villagers want peace in their village. when those people outnumber you, you're the problem. Since every villager is human, they have their own set of values and how they want the village to be. if you piss off to many villagers by refusing to abide by the rules of the village, you risk being banished. Again, signup guarantee you one thing, entry. there is no constitution here there are no amendments, and there is no prerequisite to remain in the village if you are unhappy, since being part of the village is not a necessity for life or a basic right (lol). So basically, follow the rules that the village has chosen, willingly, through trial and error and agreed upon stepping through the village gates, or risk exile
