if your moderation rules don’t include “we may ban you if we feel it’s appropriate, and do please keep in mind that none of us were born yesterday” then they are an incomplete system.

I’m loving how well vibes-based moderation is working without a mountain of dependencies or heavy coordination. hopefully we’re able to find a way to keep it effective as the communities on here scale up
also, I’m glad I’m not the only one whose inner monologue reading that thread was “all of these folks should catch a ban”

Oh hey, it’s the contrapositive of the parable of the punk bar kicking out the “nice” nazi.
