There's only going to be bans for people who continue to make the same mistakes. Good advice that isn't supported will get warned. Bad advice that isn't supported will get warned. "Bad advice", as long as it's backed up and well supported is fine, although I will usually try to refute it not in a warning, but in an actual post.

I really think that this will drasticly reduce numbers of low-info postsm which will lead to better quality.

Though I do have two questions.
1. Will this somehow deal with argues in [G] threads, where people start to discuss SIMILAR strategies, even if they back-up their words?
(for example a topic discussing roach max out@12 minutes, and someone start to argue, that this strat is irrelevant and back up with a strategy of roach-ling max-out@12 minutes)
2. Will same restrictions apply to [D] topics?

Not really sure I understand the question. Your example is kind of confusing as well, because they're basically the same strategy. A roach max always includes some lings. Care to rephrase it or give an actual forum example?

Monk, I just want to thank you for the much needed moderation around here. You're doing a great job, and I personally believe this change in policy to be a huge step forward for the TL forums. I look forward do seeing this implemented.

I think this is a good initiative, but is there any room left for theorycrafting? I mean, if a person comes up with a good strategy versus zerg, I as a zerg player like to theorycraft a bit on what would be good responses. I'd post these responses in his thread, but get warned because I can't back it up with replays etc? Or how would that work?

You don't necessarily need replays. Analysis also counts as evidence and as long as you support you theorycraft with sound analysis, you'll be fine.
