Drastic actions especially when we’re new. Taking actions against brigading, subversion, and trying to build a welcome place for people to vent frustrations or share actual information. -So the criticisms like ‘it’s just one guy circle jerking’ will become invalid. Brigaders contributed to make it the top response.

Not a single person I’ve banned has been like, ‘it was a joke’, ‘sorry I missed the rules’, or ‘please let me back, I’d like to contribute’. -Appeals are like “I did nothing wrong”.

tldr: I’m cleaning the community for it’s intented audience and participants. There’s enough evangelism and propaganda in Linux and Windows communities. -Don’t need it here.
