Rambs, that has got to be the most awesome thing I have read all week.

EDIT:

I move that PaintballChat.Org related sigs be added as an exception to clause 3 sentence 2.

All in favor?

I'm not gonna lie, I got a kick out of it.

edit: Opposed.

Motion to amend said guidelines to strike those with all paintball-related IRC chat signatures in accordance with the new "Ha-ha you pretentious yet ignorant dingbats" clause?

I oppose your proposal.

And I move to have the name "gatyr" and all variations thereof added to the swear filter and immediately IP banned.

Upon further review, this opponent to the new sig guidelines requests that stare decisis be enacted for all previous signatures, and that the writ of sua sponte be reviewed for all guidelines not pertaining to the original call for signature size with regards to height and width aspects.

Furthermore, corpus delecti is to be viewed as mandatory, with full explanations as to what offenses said signatory of the signature the "mod" deemed in violation of agreed upon guidelines.

Malfeasance is not to be grounds for signature removal; the moderator shall keep in mind the reputation certain forumers hold (and any detrimental effects that may be had by reprimanding said forumer) and allow for a correction period of one internet millennium (or one normal day), after which  the moderator is to take into account the mens rea of the infraction.

Upon deeming the signature, it is advised that the moderator review the abstract of title and confer with an appellate moderator (those moderators with more stars than the moderator questioning the legality of the signature) to confirm that there has indeed been an infraction. It is then the decision of the moderators what to do with the signature.

Should no appellate moderator be conferred with, the infraction is to be thrown out, and stricken from the records, never to be considered again for future infractions.

K?

Mr. Gatyr, that is a lucid, intelligent, well thought-out objection.
