I reckon that just by doing this poll, the site managers have proved that they are looking at ways to make the forum as good as possible. I`m sure we are all in agreement with that way of thinking.
A lot of the problems seemed to have arisen through the admin not being very experienced in running the show, but that will come with time. Some site members have been a bit less tolerant than they could have been and perhaps should have directed their gripes to the people concerned privately instead of airing their views to everyone, but it won`t hurt once in a while to let people know their concerns via threads like this one.
I figure that the advice that rich_b gave in the "Vic's say!!!" thread just about sums up what needs to be done here, especially about when people get posts edited, saying that explanations should be given etc.
A set of rules isn`t a bad thing to have, but these have to be thought out pretty carefully. You can easily have rules and still not be thought of as being draconian, just as long as your careful about how you use them.
Cheers. Ewan.
