Agreed. I propose that anyone invoking Godwin's Law be banned.
Also, I'm not saying absolutely none, but profanity should be used in utmost moderation.

i just have a question... while reading the rules it says that your avatar can be at max 125x125 px, but... when uploading one, you're allowed to have one that's up to 150 px?
Also... i didn't get the part about the "thank you"s and "endless-naruto" xD
