As a mod, it is helpful to have rules to point to when disciplining someone to prevent it from seeming arbitrary.

- patronagenone 5y agoAs an open-source contributor and professional developer, it tells me which projects to avoid entirely. Keep your state sponsored politics out of my hobby and profession.
- enriquto 5y agoHonestly, I'd prefer that trolls get banned straight away without needing to point anywhere, instead of all these stupid CoCs. You do not need any special document to kick off annoying people from a mailing list. The mere existence of CoC documents seems like an elaborate act of extreme trolling. EDIT: Moreover, CoCs don't really work in practice. Has any CoC ever prevented abuse of somebody? Do you have a concrete example?
- swat535 5y agoI think as a mod you are in a tough spot regardless. If you have loose rules and use your discretion you will be hated on. If you have strict rules, you will be hated on for stifling speech.
