They aren't always enforced strictly either. My personal hope with the new coming administration is clearer rules and tighter enforcement. Just make it feel like the mods are actually impartial and enforcing instead of giving leeway.
Does it break a rule? Infraction.Â
But it does feel like there are two camps growing out of this, the ones that want tighter moderation and those that want looser. I doubt anyone is going to be really happy with either outcome.
I'm all for strict interpretation of reasonable rules, so long as permanent bans are a special case scenario.
Though obviously I prefer the looser interpretation (how it has been in the past) better.
I do agree very much with this, well both 'this' from each individual here. I think perma bans need to be seriously considered before giving out frivolously. Though, I'm also somewhat more in the camp of stricter- because the site has evolved from what it was in the past. It was very loose, but it was also much smaller. Larger communities do have a bit more harder rules because in general; where there are more people there are more people who want to mm... not act appropriately.
We've talked about this before in the rules thread, so you know where my thoughts are concerning passive aggressiveness lie Natalie, and you know I dislike it. So I would like to see a lot of that being cut back. But at the same time I don't want to see right out aggressiveness either from people. Not saying you are doing this, but there have been in the past other instances of stuff where; I think we all can say has resulted in locked threads. I just don't want to see that myself, I've got a lot of stress IRL as do a lot of people; and it's unfortunate.
There's a huge difference between debating and being the kind of person who wants to purposefully derail, throw memes and just not contribute. I think we can all agree to that.
