Whatever the case may be, it sounds to me like the editors need to get their heads together and decide on some hard and fast rules instead of arguing amongst yourselves in public. Not only does it make you look like fighting children and small minded ninnies, but it also alinates the very people you aim to draw here to debate with.
You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say will be
misquoted, then used against you.
