Note the forum and the tone of the thread. That’s a Whiny ****es RP post, not a serious discussion – as he goes right on to explain.

This.

Also, the forum descriptions aren’t, and never have been, rules. They’re guidelines at best. I had asked ET long, long ago about either the intent of the descriptions, or the enforceability of not following the descriptions, and nothing really came of that discussion.

Historical note: That forum was one of the original four public ones. The clbum-specific ones didn’t come until much later. So its original intent may have been for “enforced” role-playing, and the lack of description change might just have been an oversight when the new forums were introduced.
