Actually, I don't understand what you are saying in view of what I am asking Coordinator. My questions are about the site's policies and guidelines, which should direct those judgements and 'discretion' so that they are not arbitrary.
I normally don't stay where I am not wanted and I assume most people are that way. I come here because to some extent I feel like I am among peers. I am trying to understand the scope of these new guidelines but I don't have to receive any clarification, it is not may place to demand anything. I am only asking because it seems to me that there is more to the story and that's where I want to get.
My life will be equally complicated or simpler without knowing anything of what goes on behind the scenes here. But as a member of this virtual community I feel it is my responsibility to ask questions.
The guidelines already talk about respect, one person using anonymity to crowd people is as bad several people as ganging up on others. Both are equally wrong. Rules should try to be fair and how is political discourse going to be balanced when one side crowds and bullies others who don't think like them?
