What you fail to consider is that when you join a list/forum/community, which has posted rules/guidelines/etiquette, it is only good manners that newcomers follow those rules/guidelines/etiquette. You are certainly welcome to propose and argue for changes. And if you are on the losing side of the argument, nothing is preventing you from starting a list/forum/community where your rules/guidelines/etiquette must be adhered too. -- Janos Dohanics
