    Maybe another mod can give me their opinion. I don't believe it matters when it's an instance that's been downright hostile to Hexbear from the beginning. Can anyone help me out with this one?

      Not a mod, but fuck that; we don't approach the opps on some Jesus Christ kumbaya shit regardless of where we are. If the opp's a known hostile why the fuck would you treat them like it's all sweet?

        Sorry I'm old, and I don't know the meaning of what you said.

        The poster above reported for posting about a mod in another instance. I'm still trying to do my best with limited experience. I should probably get on the Hexbear matrix already.

          Basically, "civility to the civil and honestly fuck everybody else; especially the people we know aren't civil."

            I swear to god, I don't know what you're getting at. I was replying regarding his rule 7 report, not the civility thing.

            I'm tired as hell, not messing with you.

          I have never seen that rule enforced in the dunk tank for lemmy.world. So my assumtion would be its only for federated sites but Im not a mod so its your call.

              You could try to dm/ping one of the dunk tank mods if you need more advice? But I doubt leaving this up will upset anyone we as a site particularly care about.
