    While neither is completely correct, I understand the need for reiteration and the latter is much more elegant.


    Edit: Just noticed that it should be 'nor'.
    Decisions of the Administrators or Moderators ARE NOT up for public discussion nor questioning. Contravention of this rule will not be tolerated.
    What the feck does "....not up for public discussion ...." mean.

    I'd go for;

    "Public questioning of decisions made by either Administrators or Moderators is not allowed."
    Baby steps, baby steps.

    Surely, it should be:-

    Decisions of the Administrators or Moderators ARE NOT up for public discussion or questioning and any such discussion or questioning will not be tolerated.
    To be fair Barbarossa, I still think, in the spirit of this rule, you should temporarily be banned...

    /me runs for it...
