Yes, I do think it is preferable. There are many activities you can't really enjoy when there are loud kids around, like you're trying to build a cool sand castle and a loud kid comes and stomps on it. Parents probably allow some stomping.
But it's not just about my preference. We have rules here, but no predictable consequences when they are broken. In practice, they stop being rules - they lose all integrity.
I'd say either get a system of enforcing rules like I proposed and follow an ideal that they consistently matter - or change the rules so that they reflect how you actually want things to be. Right now, MB is pretty two faced. When was the last time someone got punished for a short nonsense post? Yet, this is not allowed by the rules. If it is to be allowed, then at least change the rule. If rules are guidelines, state that they are guidelines.
(And make a new rules thread so my name isn't on it)
