For a very long time now, OSNews' comment sections were governed by a set of rules that dated back to the very early days of OSNews. This set of rules has been amended a number of times over the years, but we were never really comfortable with such a dry, silly list of arbitrary rules that nobody read anyway. They were too much like an... EULA. So, we decided a change was in order, and I started work on a completely new approach.

It still ironic all the "we expect or demand or wish or whatever, that you, our reader, behave well" when the site endorses (by tolerating beyond good taste) the flaming, ranting and aggressions of 'some' from its own staff.
I had actually banned this site for about a year when that was at its peak, and came back when "it" calmed down.
My point is, I -and probably some others too- expect the editor to behave at least as well as we are expected to.
