PM the people involved. Although, if the thread is really old, and the opinion is genuine, you can usually post a new thread with the opinion in it. Making it a new similar thread to the old, with newer members replying to it.

That rule has been in our rules since the time of Sydney. It isn't something new. We do it to keep the forums at rest, and not have countless childish arguments spring up about such bannings. You just have to trust us I'm afraid, and if that's something people can't do, well, we do have a door marked 'exit' somewhere.

Grammer mistake. You'd need to read it to find it as MSWord ignores this fragment. Maybe if you remove the "In which this" for just "The".

Funnily enough I did put it through MS Word... But as you say, it didn't pick up on it, as I made all possible corrections before posting. I'll edit the file I have on my computer now, with the change.

Also, how often do you expect to be giving out warnings?
(1 per every {20/50/200} members a day/week/month?)

Members don't know how many warnings they have, unless they count each one they've recieved. Warnings are given out according to how the rules are broken, it is limited to anything.

You say no double posting. Apart from not being able to double post, I've found I can't delete my own posts if they are the last ones on a thread. Is this just me, or is there a reason for this?

Double posting is to cut down on spam. With vBulletin 3 installed, we'll eliminate the need for double posting with the introduction of multiple attachments per post. Again, not being able to delete a post is something that was in place in the era of Sydney. It was just realised after the port to vBulletin 2 from UBB that it had somehow been enabled, and it was once again disabled. This is to stop members from going on massive post deleting sprees.
