We've been lax on the rule, but after much consideration - we have decided to begin reinforcing it.

UPDATE:

Members posting on Inside Universal should feel free to disagree with one another without fear of being insulted, regardless of the severity of the disagreement. To uphold this standard, we will implement a "Zero-Tolerance" policy towards insulting members and will issue automatic bans (length dependent on the severity of the insulting post) to those who violate this rule. If you believe someone is crossing the line and resorting to insults, please use the "Report" feature so the moderating team can evaluate the situation.

Thank you!
