If we made rules to cover everything it would be extremely patronising to our members, if we didn't make enough rules to cover the 'gist' of what the forum is about it would leave the forum open to abuse by every con and spam going, that's why there are only 12 rules - our forum members manage to work out the rest all by themselves! Most of it is purely good manners and standard forum etiquette anyway.
I love studying rules, but the best was Catterick sunday market,
There were 26 rules
Rule 26
Any of the above rules can be changed at any time, by any member of staff, or appointed person, without any notice (either written or verbal). Failing to comply will result in imediate eviction from the market.
There was only one catch and that was Catch-22, which specified that a concern for one's safety in the face of dangers that were real and immediate was the process of a rational mind. Orr was crazy and could be grounded. All he had to do was ask; and as soon as he did, he would no longer be crazy and would have to fly more missions. Orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he didn't, but if he was sane he had to fly them. If he flew them he was crazy and didn't have to; but if he didn't want to he was sane and had to. Yossarian was moved very deeply by the absolute simplicity of this clause of Catch-22 and let out a respectful whistle.
"That's some catch, that Catch-22," Yossarian observed.
"It's the best there is," Doc Daneeka agreed.
