each of us was young and inexperienced

Given the fact you are here it is your
RESPONSIBILITY to
KNOW the rules and not by the admin or mods. Yes, given that you are young and inexperienced but that doesn't exempt you. The rules are strictly implemented in this community. You break then you suffer. This saying could also be implied here "Ignorance in law is not an excuse."
For Christ sake, There are already a lot of threads that talks about this merit system. I'm not sure if you are too lazy or just dumb.
