Heh. Over-moderation. The old BABB's policy was one warning for any rules violation (except for the "hanging" offenses like spamming or socks.) No suspensions, no second warnings. One warning only.

You could be sure that regular BABBers (the surviving ones, anyway) had polished their manners to a _very_ fine gleam.

I miss that sometimes.
