-That's really what it all comes down to, isn't it? I think we should set some consequences and not worry about it. There is nothing stopping me from going to the Wiki and removing all of my Go pieces, then demanding to know who did it, except that it would make normal idiotic, immature, deserving-of-a-colossal-beating actions look pretty mundane. If we do this, everyone should just keep backup copies of their props handy in case.-
