Im trying to avoid being a power tripping mod, and I recently got a rude message who had a 1 day ban because he wanted to use the f-slur. Again after being warned.

What guidelines do good mods use?

    Good mods don’t ban people for swearing.

      There’s a very very distinct between “ohh fuck, shit shit shit” and “shut your n**** mouth you fucking f*****”. Guess which one is bannable offence basically everywhere.

      Even at the expense of the space’s vibe that the mod is supposed to keep?

      Everything in moderation (:D) of course, but people typically don’t like excessive swearing or literal slurs.

        Agreed. I mean, there’s nuance at play here.
