That's a pointless question.
I might want to understand what's going on to understand if it's even worth it to be contributing to the community at all.
- pyrale 5y agoI'm not saying a post-mortem once the situation is resolved wouldn't be a good thing. I'm saying that public awareness is not a priority while the issue isn't resolved, and that it may actually be detrimental. > I might want to understand what's going on to understand if it's even worth it to be contributing to the community at all. Usually, when moderation happens, information is best delayed until the problem is solved. That avoids uninvolved parties fanning flames on an ongoing conflict, and when information comes, it's structured rather than a stream of instant reactions. Note that this is true whether the conflict finds a satisfactory resolution or not. If the team that leaves sees that no good resolution is found, they can disclose information later, once resolution attempts have been exhausted. Note that this is from my past mod experience, I'm not involved in moderating the rust community.
