You are just the person we need, JaD.
As to whose "common sense"....well, obviously yours (the mods)....as long as you guys remain unbiased by the environment.
Now, I could cite several examples from my own experiences where rules were "bypassed" and judgment calls were made based on "common sense". I would be more than happy to elaborate on them here, if you would allow me to. Just say the word.
Well, clearly, it's good to have a set of rules....that can be used as a structural guideline. However, when you execute those rules, you should consider that we are all human beings....and not just a bunch of mindless zombies.
Furthermore, I wouldn't be surprised if there are disagreements amongst the mods as to a possible cause of action. In such situations, my suggestion would be, to take a vote. I would suspect that this is already the case.
In fact, we don't have to complicate this at all....as somebody erroneously prophesized.

We all know we are human here.... but we all are human in the real world too.... you get caught stealing, even if only to feed your starving family you must suffer the consequences of your actions.... those are the facts of life..... its not too different then the rules here..... the only differences is that you don't get to log on her for a couple of days is all.....
