    Because they breaching the common rule? Or being a spam account? Being reactionary is usually not a ban-able offence, and we admin isn’t here to control and fine tune how everyone act to a specific way.

    I mean, if you or any other admin want to do that, feel free, but i ain’t got time for that, and i trust you adult for solving common conflict yourself.

      They called to violence and insulted our members several times in the first thread linked in the OP https://jlai.lu/post/11504685

      If Jlailu members had done the same on another instance’s meta community we would have acted on it.

      I see where you come from, we don’t monitor everything that our members do, but this was a large scale event with dozens of people taking part and 248 comments.

        Then yes, it fall under the rule as brigading. I definitely would ban anyone calling for it.

      Altought it is due to a lack of people, i think it also point out the lack of a moderation board with various role to fill.

      Several role are missing so our job tend to overlap.

      We could do something like this :

      • sysop : server
      • admin : oversee all communities and subcription
      • modo : oversee one or several communities
      • mediation team : manage communities well-being
      • animators : create post, event…

      In our case, our (modo)admins would delete these as they oversee the whole server.
