You may not have noticed that the OP is a MOD. Easy to miss.
I wonder how many recent posts I could count that begin with a plea for tolerance and proceed immediately to characterize the Bad Guys, place themselves in the camp of the Good Guys, propose censorship guidelines to make it easier to single out the Bad Guys, then describe with relish the penalties that can be visited upon those others -- the Bad Guys.
Isn't tolerance wonderful?

It's too late to lock them if damage control was the goal. The damage has been done.
The reason for the mass exodus last time this subject came up in March/April was Administration (not to be confused w/the moderators) was unresponsive to member requests for information/clarification. These kind of issues are poor advertisement for the mother site & worthy of attention for that reason alone.
Repeatedly suggesting that everyone behave & be kind is valid in a perfect world, may have even had some impact of which there is no way to determine that it did. Reprimands are not a realistic plan nor an effective strategy in dealing w/these types of flareups. We're expecting to hold the general public to a higher standard than we witness in politics. Ain't going to happen all of the time & is destructive when it does to the existing member base. I can appreciate tolerance being exercised, as we all have the capacity to say something that will offend someone, but somehow we need to find quicker solutions when we see things spiraling out of control. JMO.
BS
