There are two different opinions on this issue, and i made the change due to the impression that some are in favor of scrupulously not making this part of the policy statement (i.e. just a friendly reminder that t.m.o. is not a Nokia forum), while you are suggesting we do in fact make it part of the policy. I was happy with the way it was originally: somewhere between, leaving it to the discretion of moderators as it is in fact anyway and should be for such threads. There are perfectly good examples of both kinds of posts around if we need exhibits. Adding something that sounds like a rule is going to be misinterpreted, i think.

Classic example of arbitrary Nokia decision making. Couldn't just fallback to the no brainer of tagging with lat/lon if network isn't accessible, could you Nokia?

I'd either be in favour of the suggested clarification that action *may* be taken on those threads, or removing it. Keeping it as a "friendly reminder" is a good gesture, but it doesn't belong in a policy document IMO.

Also, I'd like to point out that, technically, it's not a rule. It has no penalty attached to it, so it's not a rule. Additionally, it's part of the introduction. So, maybe something that phases out "not allowed" and focuses on "pointless", so to speak?
"talk.maemo.org is not operated by Nokia. Do not post topics specifically addressing Nokia, as this is a community forum."
To:
"talk.maemo.org is not operated by Nokia, and no formal support is provided here as this is a community forum. Please use the proper Nokia channels for warranty issues. Topics specifically addressing Nokia are discouraged, but not expressly forbidden."
And more of a disclaimer than rule, yes, so it should be pulled out and identified as such. Thanks ndi.

Are we there yet?

It's both open enough to not discourage people, but still leaves enough room for mods to get rid of the more harmful threads.
