It would seem to me that only those who are intent on causing havoc on the forum/with their own nefarious agenda would take the trouble to create such clone...or his own army of clones.

Rules are of no use if they can't be enforced. There is no way of telling which accounts are clones and which are original.
However, if they are used to abuse the rep system, I have a way of finding out and many clone accounts have been disabled because of this. However, with a bit of work, they can easily be recreated and the cycle continues.
My policy has always been one of a very light handed touch. People can pretty much post whatever they want as long as it isn't spam and isn't off topic. I leave it to members to police each other.
Even if you do get zapped, there is nothing stopping you from saying whatever you want. If you don't bother about your points, why worry if they're deducted. You aren't being silenced by anyone.
