The Blogger's Code of Conduct revisited

The proposed "Blogger's Code of Conduct" [1] was once a simple affair, consisting of a few fairly broad provisions. Now, it's mushroomed into a multi-page, a al carte affair where you can "[c]reate your own code by selecting the modules you want". There are 10 modules, as well as a list of variants, discussions of the various variants and modules, and so on. Pretty soon Jimbo Wales might have to ask for more money to hire a Blogger's Code of Conduct administrator.

I note also they have a "Criticisms" page [2], containing a highly questionable contribution called "Excessive quarreling in order to cause strife":
Many blogging discussions become heated because of excessive quarreling. Obviously, some people enjoy this, and enjoy "winding up" others. Many of the other issues could be rectified if blog commenters would stop this unwholesome activity.

Since they will not, it's up to we bloggers to do it. I tried to add this to The Code, but it was stripped out after a few days. I'm afraid I cannot and will not support The Code until it is added back in. I will also be telling my thousands of daily visitors not to support the The Code.

We must have the ability to remove comments that are simply designed to get into an argument. If someone disagrees with something someone says, they can go say it on their own site. They have no right to expect me to print it for them, and I will refuse to do that and I will not only remove their comments I will ban them from commenting ever again.
I have absolutely no idea who added that, and I have a bit of trouble figuring it out. Could they be serious? Could it be deep, extremely funny satire? If the latter, the author - someone who I have no idea they could be - is clearly a comedic genius. No, really: whoever wrote that is a true genius of satire. If only I knew who it was.

Ok so what's a code of Conduct? its away of controling anyone telling the facts and not just doing the party line, so you will see people not being allowed to write anything against the new order of government meaning you! after that people who talk out against the third world will start being arrested and if that isn't working you can forget working at any job, if you keep up talk and writing against corruption may God help you. if the message is lost on you you will be sent to a camp for reeducation in the ideals of mexico city and the new order of government and race, if you still don't get IN Line its the "work camp", and as we all know Work Makes You Free( note this was a death camp saying 1933-45 ) and we all know what that means or do we? AND MAY GOD HELP YOU ALL.
