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.
If the issue is too many reports and we’re just letting people fly, then the reports won’t stop coming. Downvotes don’t stop repeat responders. It will just be a chain of 100 back and forth comments reporting each other.
The downvotes don’t stop how many pointless reports the mod has to sort through, do they?
