Should mods be able to tell users that they are contained to a single thread or subforum or that their posts on a particular topic shall be limited to a particular thread, to be enforced with temp-bans if the poster strays from those areas?
Should mods have the power to contain users?
Yes, mods should have this power
No, mods should not have this power
We should put it up for a vote and let the community decide if mods should have this power
I was being sarcastic. I came off one of his bans for “misogyny” for saying to a woman “I am sorry that’s how you feel”, right before I sent that. I was giving him tips on what trumped up charges to get me on next.
I generally agree with your assertion and, thinking out loud, wonder if the “containment power” would add a tool for moderation. Might provide an escalation/de-escalation tool.
