The irony is that these people contribute more noise by hi-jacking and ranting unnecessarily! * If they continue to violate (May be a three strikes policy?) banning them temporarily will let them know that following rules is important! (When they won't listen to friendly nudge there is no point in remaining friendly.) * At some point of time the temporary ban should be made permanent (2nd or 3rd ban?). * Please ban any member involving in personal attacks. Lets debate about ideas; not fight over persons! * Any member using harsh language against newcomers may also be warned and banned at third strike. More to come. Stay tuned. :p PS: How to keep track of offending persons?
