Minor violations are punishable by a warning [*],

shutdown [!].
[*][*][*][*][*][*] = [+][+][+] = [!]
The moderator is in charge of recording punishments. If the same thing
violation is punished simultaneously by the moderator and the co-moderator -
the more strict is taken into account.
The moderator, like the co-moderator, is always right. Well, let's just say
almost always. The latter does not detract from his right to punish. If
If you don’t agree, please contact me via netmail. It was noticed that the moderator
lazy enough to star anyone. So shout
like "Prokhorov is a saxophone!" not to be punished in reasonable quantities
there will be. :)
The moderator has bouts of bad mood. I advise
You don't want to get caught in the "hot hand".

rom on the basis of its own decision, or at the request of the participant

laziness of this conference. Proposals for changes in the law
pitchforks can be sent to a moderator or co-moderator only
netmail.
VII. Stylistics, spelling and punctuation.
──────────────────── ─────────────────────
This is just a wish - respect the rights of other participants
conferences in terms of the readability of your messages, often thisdirectly related to the literacy of their writing; it is known that stupid
This example is contagious, including in this area. If
you don’t know how to spell this or that word, replace it with a si-
anonymous, do not torment our eyes with words like “I sang” or “it
is being done." Respect our great and mighty!..
Cool hacker messages like "(00│ ├┤А(К3Я") are equivalent to
message in a foreign language.
Although mistakes and typos are not a punishable offense, clearly
deliberate disregard for spelling as such (for example,
total absence of capital letters and punctuation marks) may
be considered a violation, and is equivalent to a message on
foreign language. :)
