I think it's hard to maintain the spirit of "playing a game with friends" with a militant no-nonsense policy. If you want to encourage dialogue and fun, you have to give people some breathing room, and a consequence of that is you might have to tolerate some nonsense.
I was referring to the no-nonsense aspect of the rules. I'm fine with some nonsense on the part of the forum participants. We don't have a rule against it, nor against being silly, or having fun. I personally am very lenient about lots of behavior that some of the other forum mods don't like. It's not like I'm not the perpetrator of some silly one-liners or off-color jokes.
