The probations for "stale arguments" also come off as real arbitrary because there's plenty of chatter over well-trodden subjects that doesn't get hit and as far as I can tell there's no rhyme or reason to it. Instead of feeling like a rule to abide by it feels more like blindly walking across a minefield. Or in short: VitalSigns posted:Why not warn someone before you probe a stale argument for the first time? Just reply to them in the thread with something like what Koos said above: that arguing, say, one of the two major political parties is ineffectual is a stale argument and from now on should be considered risky. Then you could just note that somewhere (perhaps a post in the rules thread) so everyone knows which arguments have the stale warning applied.
