Do you think I came down on the wrong side of being a dick? I haven’t modded before, it’s just me, and it’s really hard to decide where to draw the line. I don’t want to be a hypocrite and I don’t want to be too heavy handed in removing comments or banning people if it comes to that.
My thought process here was this guy’s initial comment was dickish but not to the point where it required removing their comment. I felt it was unnecessarily rude, but I don’t have the thickest skin. My reply was completely accurate and not rude, but it was heavy on the sarcasm. My ruling: neither of us broke the rule. What’s your take on it?
I stickied a post to the top of this community inviting feedback and suggestions on how to mod this community and what the rules should be. I’m also looking for more people to mod this community with me. I’m actively encouraging input and feedback so please add your thoughts to the stickied post - I genuinely want more people than just me deciding what’s ok and what’s not.
I wondered if I was a bit close to breaking my own “don’t be dick” rule, but I couldn’t resist!
There it is: rules for the but not for meeeee!
Mods can decide to be a dick, but we all should be civil all the time.
