Most of the site rules involve a restriction on a prohibited action. Therefore, not following the site rules would most likely involve taking an action that was prohibited. So, your point is essentially saying “What if I don’t not take a prohibited action”, and since that’s a double negative, it’s a faulty argument.

In a grammar sense, no you shouldn’t use double negatives. However you’re mixing up rules of logic with rules of grammar. A double negative in logic is totally valid. If you were to use YOUR logic on simple mathematics would you say that (2) – (-2) is invalid because there is a double negative? No it isn’t but you knew that already right?
