I just had a look at this (obviously not for the first time), and I think it's time to remove it.
Just make the rules be known in a sticky, and don't give anyone special treatment, or second chances where they aren't due.
I looked at the thread and besides outlining certain elements of the rules, it also makes this place out to be in regular shambles, and a place where females are likely to be harrassed.
It's been good for a very long while now (comparatively speaking), and I think that this kind've spins a negative perception about the place, might put new posters off staying...anyways, I think it's served it's purpose.
While on topic...seems like a few other things that are on sticky now, kind've needn't be...
It should be stuff of ongoing importance, eg: rules, where to post what, members of moderation, not just because people wanna keep their threads on life support. - If a thread's gonna make it, it'll keep itself afloat.
Sorry, just gets to me to have this chunk of superfluous stuff up there.
