And who defines that?
If you can give me a definition of "foul language" or "abusive"
or "disrespectful" I would be happy.
The old code of conduct was only containing "foul", which also
was already too much. Nobody can be declared authorative in
deciding what is foul/abusive language.
Short example: People from Siena (Italy) have a tendency for strong
words, very strong words. And between friends it is very common.
What is foul/abusive here?

Again one of those weasel words, I think Wikipedia calls them...
"degradation of the quality"
