I spent this morning writing a post about how empathetic community moderation should be done after the whole fiasco in /r/scala. @propensive would you like to give your input? Did i miss anything?https://www.reddit.com/r/hascalator/comments/ahp8ja/a_note_on_moderation/ …
I liked the phrasing and the consideration that's gone into the rules. I don't actually have strong opinions on moderation style, and notwithstanding the criticism of r/scala, I generally favor more interpretation and less regulation, but I have no complaints about this.

Here's the rub: I think you will have to work hard to maintain its positive image. It may be seen as a hostile fork, goaded by
@tpolecat's suggestion, and given there are people strongly falling on different sides of this debate, don't be surprised if some people are suspicious. -
I hope that nobody who wants to criticize cares enough to bother, though. And I think that adhering to the rules laid out is the absolute best thing you (and the other mods) can do to ensure its success. Nobody can complain if r/hascalator consistently upholds high standards.
