You have a suggestion for a change to the rules or a new one? Remember, both sides are allowed here. The intent is not to establish a dictatorship. And rules have to be pretty objective so that both sides can largely agree as to whether they were violated. I think that makes a rule incorporating what you desire pretty difficult to formulate.

Important changes to rules generally get passed around among several of us and they are both left and right. Bias towards one side or the other gets rubbed off in the process. Anything you suggest has to withstand that. I have found that this process works rather well. Any point I may miss will very likely be spotted by someone else.

I don't think a "No nastiness" rule is practical. That's much too subjective a call.

And, as moderator, may I point out that the person you speak of is not banned?
