    SSD comes across as really whiny as a result. Different situation; they've decided to go with the "YOU'VE BEEN WARNED STAY IN YOUR LANE" approach to random readers on an internet news article site, which is completely ineffective and makes them look like twats.

    Respectfully, I would have to agree that the way the SSD admonition was worded (and comes across) just sounds like it would stifle much relevant discussion with heavy handed and unnecessary "moderation".

    Moderation is best when its presence is not constantly felt and drawing attention to itself. Imho, of course, based upon my years of experience moderating elsewhere. The key word in this regard being "elsewhere" since this is Tom's site.

    And they don't want to be the place where scores of somedoods act out their vast knowledge. That's what enthusiast forums are for.

    I was relieved to see in this massive crackdown, so far at least, use of the thoughtful haiku remains unscathed.
