Here, help me out. Say you're trying to get people to include this list in their ads. Say a lot do, but a lot don't. So you delete the threads that don't include it but there's no warning given out. But, it keeps happening over and over again and some people won't listen (like people posting OOTP6 ads on the OOTP2006 board). What should you do, just keep wasting your time deleting ads or give out an expiring warning so that people actually do it? You could say forget deleting the threads altogether, but some of us firmly believe this helps people looking for leagues. Given that you want to get people to do this, what would you do?

What I would do is remember that, in the end, this subforum is here to nurture the online community, and the worst you could do for that community, worse than having a bunch of threads that don't follow these posting conventions, is to start handing out warnings to the most important members of this community; the ones running leagues. I just see this rule as being close to killing the patient to cure the disease.
