Punishing an entire group because of a small group is never the answer. Oh sure, it takes care of the problem, but it causes resentment by the masses and hurts over all morale. Not all resentment is in the form of a thought out post from the wonderful Meg after all.To be completely honest, I am also for the Edit version.
However, the way it was used by certain members kinda helped them break the rules and yet appear innocent after a while, therefore some kind of measure/punishment had to be taken.
In the future it might re-appear again. No worries.
