Banning threats are not a constructive form of debate.
Jimbo Wales is the fiscal benefactor of this project, but as a monarch
is very tolerant of the silliness of some of his subjects. He also has
the wisdom of mostly remaining silent in these debates. A lot of the
rules in this discussion are not his doing; the evidence does not
support an accusation of lese-majesty.
