Additionally if there were posted official rules then they wouldn't be able to keep everyone on the forum in a perpetual state of chill effect by forcing everyone using it to kiss the staffs ass in the hopes that they will not get extra creative with interpreting the rules in order to peruse a vendetta against you for being critical of them, and destroy all the work required to build up a reputation around here.
That's not how this work, at least not with me. I'm very strict and do not care about other factors involved (e.g. rank; "kissing the staffs ass"). In fact, it might even get you into more trouble with me.
There will never be official rules or terms of service on this forum because Theymos fancies himself an "anarcho-capitalist", and like most "anarcho-capitalists" the rules are whatever he says they are according to how it serves his own interests at any given time. Funny he likes to call himself an "anarcho-capitalist", but the definition of anarchy is "without leaders" - (an - without, archy - leaders). Yet still he rules the forum from the top down with no meaningful control being allowed to anyone else within the community. Sounds like anarchy to me

Moderators "control" the community, theymos rarely ever intervenes (there isn't usually a reason for him to do so). So no, this is not "anarchy". You're just appealing to emotion because you've been burned here.
