    What do they expect an admin to do with their user? It’s not our job to treat them like a school children.

    If not, then how come an admin can ban a user?

      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.

        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.

        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.
