It's clear that most of this site's users want more relaxed moderation standards. But I'm super libertarian, so I suspect that many wouldn't go as far as I would in relaxing those standards. In order to test that, I thought I'd put my ideal moderation standards out there. Feel free to share your thoughts!

There would be only three cases in which moderators would take action:

1. Harassment of a Specific User
  • "harassment" defined as persistent one-sided initiation of conflict
  • would not apply to flamewars in which both/all sides are equal participants
  • would not apply to insults or slurs in and of themselves
2. Violations of Privacy / Safety
  • includes doxxing, as well as serious threats of IRL harm
3. Spamming and Forum Pollution
  • might apply to a flamewar if it gets to the point where it's derailing multiple threads
  • would justify the creation of rules on where different types of content belong

Please indicate if you agree, disagree, or have no opinion:

Bsh1 should be replaced as chief mod by someone who has a more lax approach to moderation.
