OK peeps, I am seeing a lot of flamewars lately which go off-topic of this comm. I am also getting dozens of reports about people reporting each other for “rudeness” or “trolling”. I don’t want this comm to start becoming a drama haven, so I want to try and prevent people getting worked up like this.

What do you think about me starting to deploy strategic 1-day bans for people who I notice are getting into flamewars? If not, what else do you suggest to help people remain civil?

Don’t just upvote/downvote. I won’t take these into account, I want actual comments about this to better make a decision.

    My privileges are what I say they are. There’s no natural law on how to run a comm. 😅

      It kind of reads like you posted this as a question then accepted no feedback and pushed back on anyone with a different view. Not saying that’s what’s actually happening, it’s only been a few hours, but you’ve responded exclusively negatively in these comments.

        like this?

        The fact is that I haven’t responded to most comments because they make good points. There’s nothing to argue against good points. I’m not going to go around saying “good point” to everyone
