I agree that all debate on either side of the coin has to be civil.. But I totaly disagree that we have to put up a 'statement of intent'..
Who cares what people think on other sites.. and we shouldn't have to explain ourselves on our own forums.
Everyone that uses this site knows what we are about.. and it's nothing to do with cheating.
If we have to be seen to be 'justifying ourselves' something has gone terribly wrong..

Trooper, no one is saying we "have to" put up a statement of intent.

We are just discussing the possible benefits of such a step.

And, respectfully, this statement: "Who cares what people think on other sites.. and we shouldn't have to explain ourselves on our own forums.", only serves to reinforce those with negative opinions and may put off some who are not quite sure how to view what many here are trying to accomplish.

I realize this is a controversial topic that could quickly get derailed and appreciate the restraint shown so far.
