@JyrkiLahtonen: Although I am sure you are aware of this room as per @MartinSleziak's suggestion in the other room I am pinging you again regarding my last comment to you. I hope you will excuse my being unreasonable earlier and not including a link to the said room when I pinged you the first time.
@quid @AlexanderGruber @XanderHenderson @JoséCarlosSantos @RRL: I think we need to enforce more strongly that unsupported insinuations and snide remarks are not acceptable. I will be removing a few from the most recent conversations. If you or any other moderator disagree with any removal, feel free to explain why we should allow them. Thanks. I still think everything else related to CRUDE should be allowed, but stars should be reserved for constructive messages. What do you think?
I have also unstarred the message that BD just mentioned as a "doozy". (Stating this for the record as per @quid's suggestion.)
@user170039 If I unstar messages, I unstar them impartially based on their content and not their author. Given recent accusations that I am biased, I think you're indeed wrong in saying I should just act. However, since a moderator has fulfilled your request, I will unstar some of your comments that have been starred again.
@JoséCarlosSantos The second one is an interesting careless mistake.
@user21820 that description is hard to make actionable. I'd recommend this room restricts to it's initial purpose, and discusses posts one at a time. General discussions could happen elsewhere. The advantage of it happening elsewhere is that this room is by now somewhat well-known and thus might be visited by users that just want some post handled occasionally, and it's not ideal if they have to wade through all kinds of talk.
If nothing else create a "CRUDE policies" room or something like this.
In the end I won't tell the regulars here how they should run the thing, but I as a maybe a semi-regular have the impression that the increased amount of talk here, actually distracts from thing getting done.
@quid I share that opinion, and you're right that sticking to on-topic discussion is easier to enforce. I was trying (as usual) to accommodate others. But if other room owners prefer a less-talk-more-work policy, count me in. =)

@user21820 In any case I will just point out that I explicitly mentioned only the remval of the stars of my comment by Jyrki earlier. I didn't say anything about the second starring. So its removal is entirely your choice (since you have already done that).
