I think it may vary from board to board, as it did before. One BIG problem with the changes made was that moderators lost their power: they were told to refer what they considered problematic posts to the admins, rather than delete them.
Now it's specifically said that mods should once again moderate. So we can go ahead an kill personal attacks.
At least that's how I understand it. And like you, I'm surprised they rolled it back at all.
