Maybe because it's unofficial?

This is great. I think the list should be vetted by forum administration and stickied.

I think that's intentional there is no comprehensive rulebook.

Why so?

No "official" set of rules was ever published, because if rules are set in stone, then people will come up with clever ways to bypass them, and then complain when a moderator takes action. This is however a very good thread to read to find out in general what you can and can't do. I do believe it should be stickied, but kept as "unofficial"

I think Badbear said something similar to the bolded part before. Personally, if the list is here and available I think it should be stickied as I think it would be more helpful for users and staff than actually abused, though obviously some will try get around the rules, but the mods and admins still have the right to interpret the rules as they see fit.

Yeah why tell people all the rules? It is better to punish them arbitrarily and keep everyone on their toes and fearful of repercussion. After all we wouldn't want you to be stuck in a situation where you might have to enforce written rules uniformly in a way everyone understands.
