    THIS! and automod removal responses get longer and longer so people gloss over them...yep yep

    And so it goes, until eventually you've had to write a 6-paragraph mini-essay just to explain a "No jokes" rule. Then people complain that the rules are too lengthy to read. GRR!!!

    I don't know the details of your busybody tasks but since I highly respect the way you think, I'm sure it helps keep things well grounded in rationale.
