Until you reach a state of unity with all things there will always be rules or limitations on your free will. This includes self-imposed limitations, socially enforced rules and the limitations and framework of the paradigm of belief you operate within. What you need to realize is that these limitations can actually be extremely beneficial tools as they funnel consciousness into certain areas in order to expand experience within those areas. For example, I post on another message board that has no moderation and no rules other than a loose social convention established by the regular posters. That format works on that forum because it is a very open ended forum where a wide variety of topics and has a small, closely knit group of core posters. It's like a hangout. On Bring4th however there is a very specific central theme which is the philosophy of the Law of One and B4th serves as a public platform in which this philosophy can be discussed. In this case it's beneficial to have rules and a moderation team tasked to keeping the forum on topic and . . . . I'll say 'presentable' so as it can serve the public as a useful resource regarding the Law of One.
Now something I am wondering, do rules REALLY limit you so much? In my opinion within the framework of any set of rules and limitations there is still an infinite amount of possibility. Think about the English language, you have 26 letters and very firm rules about how they are to be combined and used and yet you can express an almost infinite amount of ideas and concepts in endless different ways.
