The rules are partially understood by deputies who are far more personally engaged in the forum than the administrator, and whose administrative role is extremely limited. But if you read a deputies "if you had only" posts written as group members, it is plain to see deputies opinions of what is compliant does not always align with that of the sole administrator.I'm talking about complete handover of administrative duties, if only on an occassional basis, so the rules are set in a well-considered code and not by individual fiat.
