like all you said but the bolded....for that....it need to be defined like if a fight between 2 member lasts 3 pages.....then Thats an emergency....not what it's said....it should be How long did an interaction two warring posters took over...then a ban on BOTH sides for 1 week everytime this mudslinging occurs. Simple as that, same as for 3 members fighting over 4 pages, 4 members over 5 pages....its long and hard.....but the idea is....
no matter who is right or what. it is the very fact they wasted the 3/4/5 pages of the servers' space on bullshit...and thus be equally punished on both side (or 3 sides) for the mess...but if the debate had no insults, just purely a grown up discussion (mods should be able to tell that) then it's left intact the 3 pages is not deleted....
Thats my view....
