All polices are enforceable. Just because a certain one does not specify a
specific punishment for violating it, does not mean it is not enforceable. The
ArbCom has banned a bunch of users for regularly violating the no personal
attacks policy. ASAIK, admins can and should enforce this policy when they see
it violated after a warning is given.
