No, you know exactly what I mean. Coaching is when you help a user to say the same vile shit but this time you've taught them to say it in a way that just barely doesn't break the rules.

And we don't do that.

I'm not gonna spend the time to write out a new "policy" or whatever the hell that is if I have no guarantee you're going to implement it. it's not my job to write the rules, it's the moderators. You are the top moderator.

It used to be called the community policy because the community took a greater role in contributing to it. If I am saying that change is possible but you have to actually specify changes you have in mind, I'm not obstructing you or a potential for change. I'm giving you a voice you have that you didn't seem to know you had. When you say change the policy and I ask what we should change it to it is an actual real question.

You claim there is no problem here so why would I waste my time to draft new policy? Either there is a problem or everyone in this thread is just plain wrong.

I say moderators do not and have not coached users on how to violate our policies without getting in trouble for it. Of course there is a problem with bigotry. We wouldn't need policies against things if we could just intuit what was good or bad for posting here.

You don't admit that there is a problem here so making new rules is just not going to help. You said (outside of reddit) that the more people rant against you you're more convinced you're right.

When people pile on irrational rants it just means I get practice at dismissing things. I actually pay attention to thought out posts that aren't just rants though. If the people who are rallied against me had an actual case they could present it instead of hiding behind innuendo and half-stated accusations.

I think more people in this thread are agreeing with me than you.

Does that make you right?
