It's not my policy, and I've violated it several times and been banned for it. All I'm truely arguing is that the channel ops and owners can run the channel as they see fit. It's not a matter of "abusing the @". If you come to my house and don't follow my rules, and I kick you out, I'm not abusing the fact that I'm big enough to throw you out, I'm enforcing the rules of my house. See the difference ?
