Lately I've noticed a large inflix of forums that aim at new rules that, overall, won't affect this wiki much. A lot of complaints about how rules don't work and how we need to dish out punishments more often. Now, I'm all for dishing out punishments more often, though, many of these forums call for extreme measures against these smaller "annoyances" (as they aren't harming anyone), though the issue they're trying to "ban" is a petty one. Honestly, most of these rules are targeted at newer users, which I find would overall make this wiki even more cliquish, as we're only making it harder for newbies to join. This wiki has a large number of people both coming and going, so it all balances out, but what if we cut off that influx of people coming, but not the ones leaving?

Overall, I feel all we're doing is making this wiki more intimidating for newer users who are not only new to wikia but also to this wiki. I just want to here your opinions on this subject and any ideas as to how we can fix it.
