I think it is not in the boards best interest to only enforce some of the rules some of the time.
I think the ridiculous lengths of the blocks make even the deputies unwilling to try and enforce the rules. I certainly will waddle away from the screen before I ever try to give a friendly heads up to another poster in order to cooperate with your vision of civility.
While this infraction is understandable, there are also other violations on other boards which have gone unremarked. There is also a wide range in the number of Please Be Civils etc that are given before blocking. This is not fair. It undermines the whole system.
Why do you not make an effort to make the rules clear enough and the penalties reasonable enough that the deputies would be willing to enforce them promptly? There are deputies waiting to go on duty now. What happened to that?
And while you're here, could you invite Marsha Linehan to guest?
I do like you Dr Bob and I think you may be doing the best you can but there are people willing to help you know.
