The rules are not meant to be strict laws for everyone to follow without question, with severe punishments to those who don't follow them.
They are meant to be a friendly guideline for those who *want* to be a good part of this community, but might be a bit confused at why people yell at them.
For example, say someone got a computer for the 1st time yesterday. They don't understand this internet thing yet... and they accidently have their Caps Lock on when they post a message about FIAT in the General Dink Discussion forum. This seems like a little mistake to the poster, but some rather zealous individuals would rather yell at the poster instead of trying to help them.
No, this won't stop people who either enjoy being pretty stupid, or don't care to change their stupid actions. But it will hopefully help those people who *want* to be good.
