Exactly... follow the guideline even if they do not make sense to you :)
Seperately, work in a constructive way to change guidelines that you disagree with or to help better the system. We are always looking to improve!
Much like the law of the land... abide by the law and work through legal means to have the law changed. I should not breal laws and participate in activities that are illeagle, but if the law is changed I may. Until that time, I abide.
With less formal things like "please don't step on the grass" or "please take your shoes off" I still abide out of general respect for others.
I promise nobody is giving you a hard time Roland... quite the oposite. I welcome you openly, and was trying to help guide you down the easier and better path.
Do as you think best, and we're happy to have you here!
