Nobody reads rules these days.
I'm an admin for a Facebook charity page and we only have 3 rules:
- Be kind and courteous
- No hate speech or bullying
- Respect everyone's privacy
I have to decline more than half the requests to join because people can't be arsed to read them.
Rules will always be broken, we have all done it at times ;)
We are living in a society where decency and respect are no longer top of the agenda
Sad fooking world really
Try and educate them if you can, deal with them if you cant

Much like reading the manual. Only a few do it. Even fewer befóre problems arise.
I have found that rules on webforms usually amount to interpretation and biases.
The rules give you the illusion of being fair. I am not a trouble maker but I have had to fight to illustrate the biases using the rules to defend people that have been wronged even if I don't like the person. The most important thing is to keep a cool head and argue the merits. If you inflame the situation then it leads to justification of the action that was taken.
