Boss, I do not see what the problem is. Like my Dad use to say, "My house, my rules."

That's one of the reasons I come here and have for years (under one name or another); there is not a bunch of rush to post crap stories and half-truths just for sake of being "first". Please don't change a thing. I know I don't post a lot but I do read a lot and enjoy the information that I get here. My Dad told me "You can't learn with you mouth open."

It's a common phenomenon with people that rules get distorted, misinterpreted, and misaligned such that the practice is far from and even contradictory to the original content.

And that happens even with the most sensible rules such as the ones here. Sometimes, people "simplify" the rules for themselves such as "I'm not going to start a new thread at all" or "I'm going to wait 24 hours before starting a thread" and then pass it on or verbalize while forgetting that it's their own rule and not the one that was actually issued.


"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.
