The spirit of your post is not only well taken here, it is appreciated
for the thought and logic you have applied ...
Possibly the only point I can find to differ with you on is profanity
and obscenity, these should never be allowed in a forum where the
general population is not wanting of them and one is not expecting them
(most groups are not sex or perversion orientated--the group name should
provide some indication of ones expectations--and these things around
youngsters troubles me ESPECIALLY.)
The rest I will have to give some thought to, however, on the surface
you post proposes sanity--a thing of scarcity these days. And, amateurs
have always been a rag-tag group with a preponderance of misfits, kooks
and loons interspersed with some of sheer genius ... they have no
knowledge of this, the kooks are as likely to think themselves geniuses,
as the geniuses are to consider themselves odd ... go figure.
