It's time consuming because nodebb is shit about splitting threads. Hence the idea of deleting the offending posts (which as Roz brings up, means the person being lashed out at no longer has to see it). The thread could stay intact, it's an actual consequence, and it takes up less time overall.

I thought the proposed solution was just to say "Hey knock it off" and leave the offending post until things escalated to dumpster fire levels?

That's how it has been done and clearly doesn't work. We've discussed deleting the offending posts and some people are very opposed to it.

The number of times my 'Hey this needs to be taken elsewhere' has actually worked is nil. I haven't seen it work for Gany, either. Sometimes people listen to Ark when he steps in, but....

I try it, because it's what people want (being given a warning for behavior they know full well is in poor taste), but at this point I'm feeling like it's just so people have more fodder for insisting we're useless/half-assing it/whatever insult is the favorite of the week on us three.
