Talk:ERB Suggestions That Should Not Be Given on This Wiki/@comment-5660191-20141109183126

I'm sorry, but this is a really dumb page.

1. Did ALL of these rules come straight out of Peter/Lloyd's mouth? No they did not, therefore they should not be treated as though they did.

2. EVEN IF THEY DID, why would you do this? Why would you place rules on SUGGESTIONS? You're telling me that if I want to see... say, Gandalf vs Saruman... I'm not allowed to suggest that, because the matchup has the POSSIBILITY of being "boring and uncreative"? Some of these rules are mildly understandable, but most of them are literally restricting freedom of speech.

3. As mentioned by at least one other person before me, the amount of "exceptions" in this list is ridiculously high. The majority of the rules have the following outline: "None of this! But ERB did it and that's okay." If a rule is literally set up to be broken by having "exceptions", don't have the rule. Simple as that.

TL;DR: 1. Peter/Lloyd never said most of this, so don't act like they did. 2. This is literally removing people's right of freedom of speech on the basis of mostly assumptions. 3. Too many assumptions essentially invalidate the majority of these rules.
