I’ll occasionally allow some interaction if there’s a good discussion and everyone’s in consensus (e.g. someone from another instance saying dumb shit and getting called out), but I only let that go on for a bit before they’re banned for a year.

I also take no action unless there’s a report because I see my job as moderator as one of support for the community and if the community hasn’t reported it I’m going to assume they’re okay with it or it’s not worth it to get involved.

I have made a few feddit users write me small essays to avoid a ban and then just ban them anyways, that’s usually pretty fun.
