I’m trying to get a feel for what users appreciate and want out of community moderators.

Other related questions:

  • What community rules do you like?

  • What moderation actions do you think are helpful?

  • What is a helpful way for moderators to interact with their respective communities?

    What community rules do you like?

    I like the comment guidelines from Hacker News. E.g.

    • Be kind. Don’t be snarky. Converse curiously; don’t cross-examine.
    • Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that’s easier to criticize. Assume good faith.
