        I appreciate it. I have some experience modding here, but not in a community like this, which has the potential to bring our the worst in people! I set rules that should be broad enough to do exactly that. I have high hopes, and it fills a need.

        How is this upvoted so much? This is fucking insane.

        “Oh, just ban whoever even if they didn’t break any rules”

            Oh I’m sure you have a way to justify your corrupt authoritarianism. I don’t care what your reasoning is. If you ban people without them breaking rules, then the only actual rule is “don’t upset the power tripping bastards”, which I strongly disagree with.

                    The statements

                    “don’t be afraid to ban somebody just because they didn’t explicitly violate a rule”

                    And

                    “Oh, just ban whoever even if they didn’t break any rules”

                    Use different words but end up in the same place.

                    So how is it grossly misrepresenting anything?

                    Perhaps you can give an example of when someone didn’t break any rules and you felt justified banning them and why, and maybe I’ll sympathize a little.
