If it wasn't finished, then it shouldn't have been presented. Heck, it shouldn't have even been mentioned until the policy was ready. Thought I would quietly pop in for this point because this was in my territory so I can give clarification as to why these chat rules were proposed in moot- no, that's not official moot guideline. It's clearly something we need, and was something I presented in my moot review but like all important things on this wiki, it was left in the dust :) Considering you feel so strongly about this particular point, you're welcome to use the aforementioned linked thread to help make it become actual moot guidelines.

As for this thread, I actually agree with the majority of what Shawn has mentioned in his OP. That said, I'd like to point to this comment that highlights this issue was apparently voted on and closed in the moot already i.e. the majority of people already agree with you Shawn, which kinda renders this thread a moot point (pun unintended) and is just breeding grounds for arguments and flame wars.
