I have made it my personal mission to clean up this mess. I am not acting alone. We Moderators are having a discussion on this right now (as another Moderator recently said).

I have moved a LOT of threads and I have PMed a LOT of authors. Now, having expressed that, I want to reassure the group of authors and other posters here that I am, indeed, on your side but the rules have to be either rewritten or clarified - and I am expressing solely MY opinion here and cannot speak for other Moderators; - or else, MobileRead runs the risk of continuing to be one big, unruly three-ring circus without any boundaries for containment. And the elephants are beginning to cross the circle.

Thanks you, these are exactly my concerns
It's my opinion that if possible, some kind of technical limitation enforced on signatures would be the best way forward - then people don't have to think very much about it. In any case, clearer rules would not hurt.
