The true meaning of "The customer is always right". The community may be moving towards something you (as a mod) didn't anticipate, but they're obviously there for a reason. Give them what they want or they'll move onto somewhere that can. Forcing people into a set of rules may seem like a short term solution, but really it just hurts the community.

At this stage of Lemmy's growth ... mods are just babysitters ... they should just let the kids play whatever they want in whatever way they please, as long as no one is hurting each other ... or to weed out that crack baby that is flinging its own feces at others and wants to eat the furniture.
