Quite frankly, it would be a lot better to close this thread. The new policy is a fair one. The install-link conundrum is a non-issue really, especially since it doesn't even work properly in most instances! Therefore a blanket ban on such things is no cause for concern, and avoids the possibility of the slippery-slope argument.

The staff line of view will conflict with that of the coders sometimes (that's just an example, it applies to all ) - that's just life, learn to accept it. It's painful to see people squabbling over nothing, some even leaving because of disagreements. It's everyone's responsibility to keep the community atmosphere positive. It doesn't help if people feel the need to retaliate to every comment made.
