I'm a bit iffy on saying this but I do feel that it is a valid point that will help discussion:
There seem to be two mindsets here. One that we need a long set of rules to cover more situations that ensure people fully understand the rules and don't accidentally get themselves banned.
Another that we should keep the rules short and sweet so that they can be easily digested so that nobody accidentally gets themselves banned after forgetting one line in a 5 page rulebook.
For my part, I lean towards shorter. We do have a wiki, and can just link certain terms and phrases to pages with additional content.
Example:
Don't Grief1, don't be a Jerk2, don't be an asshole3,
With 1, 2, and 3 being links to pages explaining what being an asshole etc is in the eyes of the admins.
