@pollita I moderated our company's user forum, and had a particularly toxic user who insisted on expressing her disapproval of anyone not living by 1950s interpretations of Catholic morals. I wasn't supported well, so I struggled a lot in what to do with her. She was our most active user. I should have just banned her and called it a day, but I didn't want to discriminate against religious people. I'd step in when she crossed an obvious line, but I still view it as a time I failed as a mod.
