Perhaps what the paragraph ought to include is an indication > of rules can be altered/removed/added-to ? I read this as Alexandre did, however my reaction was positive. That the spirit of the guidelines is to foster a civil environment for ever= yone, and that actions detrimental to that goal not stated in the guidelines may = have consequences as determined by a reasonable interpretation of the actions by the committee. Or simply stated that actions which go against the spirit of the guidelines will not be tolerated. I felt like it was flexible while clearly stating intent, so I'm actually quite surprised by Nick's interpretation quoted above.
