@Euth: Then why do the GM's keep proselytizing the "spirit of the rule"?

The most important thing here is the statement about the spirit of this rule stated above.

Note on Rule Lawyering – I think the spirit of everything we are trying to accomplish here is pretty clear, and anyone that tries to twist the words to support and/or justify nefarious actions that go against the spirit of the rules posted here will not be rewarded.

3) you can try to rule lawyer, but ill enforce the spirit of the rule regardless of how you try to twist/lawyer the words.
Here's a fantastic one specifically regarding stalling:

and when people submit frivolous petitions based on rule lawyering or split hairs, im not even going to deal with them unless i feel the spirit of the rule was broken, and that a guild actually engaged to prevent another guild from engaging.
And another that's in line with using Skype/Twitch to allow everyone to track:

Doing this, figuratively takes a big old dump on the entire purpose for the Staff telling the players we don’t want them poopsocking the raid spawn locations. We also do not want KoS trackers to be able to get afk FTE’s, as we feel this is more in line with using autofire, than it is in the spirit of the rules set forth, rules that, I will remind you, were all agreed on by the players.
Sirken wants the spirit of the rule enforced, then he actually asserts Aftermath's claim on KT and Statue while Aftermath had ZERO characters in zone? Sirken's going GreenGrocer on this server, but he still has power.
