I am thinking about potential Forum Rules for Mechaenetia Mods

I did change the thing again, especially to cover some of the horrible responses I saw for Issue Reports in the past.

Things like the:
“Adds unexplained ‘duplicate’ Tag to Issue Report”, which I frequently get from the youtube-dl Devs, despite me going through multiple pages of recent open and closed Issues beforehand.

Or the:
“Please open an Issue on GitHub, so I dont forget”, instead of just quickly taking a Text file or piece of paper to write/copy it down, you instead took the time to type THAT response in chat. Clearly you are a Pro at Time Management with this waste of everyones time, including your own. looks at Speiger

Or the always famous Response by some random Community Member:
“Hey, ‘insert Dev here’ has no time for these Issues, they are working on more important Features”, followed by a bunch of other Members Yes-And-ing that Response toxicly. Yeah that kinda thing happened to me on the Factorio Forums of all places…

I have had a bunch of different bad experiences which I would like to prevent happening to other Users, so these Rules have to cover them all.
