Just how reprehensible can you be in the Pit?

Not entirely different. The evidence that Shodan was aware and deliberately referencing a shortish Pit thread from twelve years ago is pretty weak, which renders the question of, “Was this too mean?” moot. But even if that was conclusively established, I’m still not a fan of moderating stuff for being “too mean.”

As best I can recall, the only people who have brought up the too mean argument are moderators. Too mean isn’t the issue. Off-fucking-limits is.

You don’t attack someone’s children or someone’s relationship with their children. You don’t attack someone’s actual mental health issues (as opposed to a mere “You’re crazy!”). You don’t insult someone’s physical disability.
