There have been multiple occasions where I've seen chat mods say "Sorry, that's one too many exclamation points, rules say I have to ban you" or various things to that effect. There are things about the rules that need to be taken seriously and things that aren't as high a priority. Typing a word or two in allcaps or with exclamation points is the latter category. For some reason, though, a lot of mods seem to be really anal retentive about it.

This is the crap I'm talking about. Why are we recruiting zombies who mindlessly enforce rules without having any kind of common sense or understanding of why these rules exist in the first place? We kick people when everything they type is in caps, not because they used five instead of four. Nor should we be kicking users for posting three sentences without calling "wall!"
