Agreeing on policies and sticking to them is always good. If everyone 
knows what to expect, then you have only yourself to blame when you 
break a rule and get thrown out.

It's better to have fair rules that everyone knows, and that are 
competently enforced, then to stab people in the back with rules you 
just made up.
