What discussion?

We didn't even hear a single thing of this happening before it was brought to the forums, and even then, it wasn't exactly calling for a discussion.

It was more of an order, it was saying that if we didn't follow this, we woud get demoted.

That isn't a discussion. That is forcing the idea upon everybody, Administrators and Moderators included.

The sex talk, although wasn't discussed in the forums, was added because I found a practically 100% agreement from ALL the Moderators and Administrators, judging by their opinion. We ALL knew it was needed, and something that should happen. I took in mind their opinions and their feelings, and made a rule accordingly. In fact, it was thanks to the discussions I had, not only with the people in charge but with regular users in the chat (As they were the main target of the rule, the people who actually use the chat, which can't be said of everybody who has replied in this forum topic) that the sexual talk rule is as it is right now. Frowned upon.

And it is thanks to the discussions I had with Administrators and Moderators that it has stayed as it is, despite me pushing for a more harsh punishment for these. Although I disagreed, people agreed that it wasn't necessary to make it harsher.

Now tell me, what did I do? Did I go and modify the rule without even consulting anybody? No, I talked with people and found they disagreed. Did I then go and make the rule modification? No, I refrained from doing it, as I saw there was no support, so I knew that it was very possible there was good reasons for it.

We're the people who make the rules for the community. We. Not one person. We. When making the rules, one doesn't take one person's opinion in consideration. The purpose of there being a team isn't just so there is a better inforcement of the rules. It is also so this kind of stuff can be discussed before being released to the public. So it isn't enourmously flawed. So it doesn't bring trouble. So things are fine.
