1.2 is their loophole to counter all loopholes. Really, at least they have a rule that covers on-the-spot situations. Many games I've played if an Admin/GM/Mod/Whatever has found something to be distasteful, they'll often just go through with the punishment and not bother with such trifles. We are all guests on this server. Such trivialties are best not bothered with, unless you're in the habit of doing something that could risk getting you banned.
