That's what we're doing, and is why we're not resorting to "omg mods are gay". I know that the org works like that and it is just one of the many features I like about the org. They make the org a nice place to be. However, they are being too rigidly enforced, and are proving detrimental to a substantial proportion of the org's members.
How many are there of you that you now constitute a "substantial proportion" of Org membership? I think that the substantial proportion of the Org membership has zero problems following Org policies. Why are you special?
