Due to recent events and the discussion in the Amendments to the Code of Conduct post we are suspending provisional amendments to the Code of Conduct in specific regard to federation. As we continue to find our footing we may discuss this again.
The rule change in !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net prohibiting named posts of Admins and Moderators as well as direct links posts will remain for now.
Despite the suspension of the amendments, I encourage everyone to treat other others with good-faith unless they show otherwise, show considerable restraint in instance's meta posts, and abide by meta community post's requests to center discussion on local users.
Reminder that you must follow Hexbear and federated instances codes of conduct and posted sidebar rules for communities.
You may use this post to discuss further if you wish to
I went full civility and somebody still accused me of all sorts of shit. Why even bother at that point?

You did a great job.
I'm still in that thread doing a bit of outreach since I've had some genuine interest and good feedback, but it's clear the trolls and at anything left types are focusing on it now. There's been a big uptick in nonsense spam comments and possible alt accounts as a I've started seeing the same weirdly specific language, accusations, and references popping up across different accounts.
