"what the f is this ?" "I think we should give newbies one and only one chance..."
Just for kicks, I went to the site to see how/when this rule is described to newcomers. Sure, it is mentioned on the home page...and in the description of the etree and etrade lists. But, it isn't emphasized, and if you are reading quickly, you could easily skip right over it. With all the effort that goes into keeping the site and organization up and running, I would think it should be pretty simple to PUT THAT PARTICULAR RULE (which seems to be so important to the mission of etree.org) IN BOLD/CAPITAL/COLORED LETTERS so it jumps out at the reader as they are signing up for the list. Then you could legitimately say "how could you have missed that ?"
