I see a number of reasonable folks here concerned about how this rule would be interpreted and applied, and I don't mind seeing it removed. I talked to one of the community moderators at Adafruit, where most of the wording was adopted from. It sounds like there was a specific need for it there, and those circumstances don't apply to LinuxCNC. At the same time, it's good to be mindful of how the advice and help we give will be perceived; I think we should take to heart Kirk's message in this thread about toxic behavior. Kirk has been in this community a long time. How many more people simply left the community when they arrived and got unhelpful help, likely with a dose of contempt? How much more vibrant could the community have been today if that is not how it happened? We've got stuff to work on, y'all. Communities are work to maintain, just like software is.
