Zone Forum Rules: What's up with this?

A quote from the new forum rules.

Do not post abbreviations, or your post will be deleted.

This is a joke...right?

Supernanny I admire your attempts to make the Zone forums an overall more satisfactory experience but things are becoming a bit...soviet. I mean honestly, who the hell is going to think that BRB stands for 'Be ready to bat'? That is probably worse than the no-outside-links-allowed-or-you-will-be-shot rule.

Relax a little. There isn't even a purposeful meaning to back up these extreme measures, if the forum was in a state of becoming out of hand as it had done in the past when I was a moderator, I just pushed my tolerance to 0 until it calmed down again.

Oh and please refrain from becoming trigger happy and deleting this thread spouting something out along the lines of 'Forum PM moderators if you have an issue with the moderation system'. Please, don't patronize me or the Zone community as a whole.
