OK, I fixed the top post (whew! lucky they didn't
moderate your post for that.) but I couldn't 
determine what thread you were discussing?

In any event, I think the list title is a suggestion
and the list self policing. Notice that it's *ba*-poker.
That's Bay Area poker. So using a strict enforcement
policy would eliminate a lot of the generic poker
threads.  Most all the threads here are pretty much
populated with list originators and charter members.
Maybe if you saw it as a list for (ba) poker players
things would fit better.
