Strictness

One of the new chat rules that the boss made a few months ago says "No caps allowed". The old rule was that players could use caps sparingly but not for whole sentences. That rule was okay but the new rule is way too strict and we have pretty much adhered to the old rule because it is easier that way.
One of the newer Mods is very adamant about players following the rules, the new rules. I can understand that, that is our job to ensure that players follow the rules. However the past few days he has been overly strict about things.
He went so far as to jump another Mod in the lobby a couple of days ago and that was not cool. If Mods have problems with each other they should talk about it in private on Skype. Not in the lobby for everyone to see and laugh about.
Today a player used to letters in caps as an abbreviation of something and got warned. Ouch. I told the Mod on Skype I am afraid to talk in the lobby on his shift because I use a lot of caps. I was joking, of course.
We really need to get that caps rule altered before he totally angers all the regulars that talk on his shift.
