You people are trying to exploit everything the staff do. There are almost 5000 members on MFGG, but there are only 3 admins, 4 global mods, and 4 regular mods to moderate the entire thing. It's very difficult to moderate 5000 completely different people, and generalizations are required. Even if only 200 members out of that 5000 are active regularly, it's still a chore to moderate them all with just 11 people. Stop trying to pretend like the staff are all perfect and that are acting like they are perfect, because they aren't.
If it seems bad, don't do it. Why must you require a document dictating what is good or bad? The rules are up to the staff's interpretation, and it is good enough.
Here's an idea; add this to the bottom of the rules:
| QUOTE | Give the Staff a Break In a community with many users, it is difficult for the staff to do their job. As such, it is also difficult to include every single guideline for you to follow in these rules. Please, make the staff's job easier, and just use common sense when posting. If you know something is bad, don't post it. If you're not sure if something is bad, don't post it. If you're mostly sure something is okay, you can just PM a staff member and ask before posting it. You're not going to get away with saying it wasn't in the rules, nor are you going to get away with annoying bugging the staff about something you could have asked the staff about beforehand. |

Terms like "common sense" and "stupidity" are thrown around (yes, they are thrown around) like you think that if you post it enough times (or in big enough letters), everyone will suddenly "get it". That's not the case. That is the opinion and, like RetroXYZ said, interpretation of the moderation. It is very unreasonable to expect everyone to have the same, or even similar, ideas of "common sense", "stupidity" or "intelligence". Just like RetroXYZ, there are lots of different people that go here.
Yes, the job of a moderator here is not easy, but that is no excuse to go nuts with this twisted and dictatorial hunt by the staff to make a perfect (in their minds) MFGG. That's not a valid excuse at all.

All we're doing is telling you we're gonna enforce the rules a bit more now. You guys get cut retarded amounts of slack all the time.
Oh also why are we the bad guys now. Posting coolface.jpg doesn't seem like a 'good guy' thing to do.
