Please excuse my delayed response! I'll explain in pm.

I have a lot of catching up to do, but did see glimpses of this in the days after it occurred.

I very much support the proposal in the original post here, for the record.

It actually becomes really annoying seeing some of the violence-baiting that goes on, but, in a way it's kind of a double-edged sword for shills... a genuine pizzagater can always be talked back down to a calm state of mind, when reminded of just how aggression and violence can be used against us, if we partake in it - this makes shills stand out like mad when they refuse to acknowledge that their behavior/suggestions is/are threatening the integrity of what goes on here.

I think there's always been a strong push to keep things civil here, but, it's mostly been a matter of etiquette more than it was anything that offenders were to be punished for... perhaps changing that (can mods silence posters temporarily for inciting violence; a time-out to calm down?) will help to deter genuine pizzagaters from losing their cool and being sucked in by the baiting?
