Vague rules are power. Power corrupts. No anarchist should be creating vague rules. If they do, all other anarchists have the right to kick their shins

There's a problem with specific rules in that a malicious actor can intentionally work to be a dick without breaking any of the exact rules. Which is why Don't Be A Dick is a reasonable rule.

Vague rules aren't more powerful than specific ones - any admin can just change their rules if they want or ban people anyway. You could have super specific rules and power abuse simultaneously easily.

I'm also not an anarchist anyway.

Vague rules hide and legitimise abuse of power.
