Should anyone who makes threatening or abusive posts or pms be permabanned?

Yes or no?

Please do not delete. This is a viable discussion.

No it most certainly is not. I would never knowingly abuse anyone. And I'm now back on Discord FYI.

I don't think this can boil down to "yes or no" - severity and context come into play. Bans should be significant though. Permanent for repeat offenses. Instantly permanent for anything properly extreme OR an actual feasible threat. e.g. telling someone you know where they live or work (with proof) and you're going to doxx them is worse than the vague/silly threats of "come to my town and we'll have a scuffle" we've sometimes had.

Kate, you don't need to keep making these threads like these.
