Other social media sites have been doing it. Do we want to join in?

EDIT: Some people are saying that this is a power that ought to be left to communities… do we have a specific delineation of powers that relegates these decisions to communities? If not, then I recommend that these users propose such a delineation of powers. I would be very ok with this proposal failing because instead we got a more explicit set of checks and balances.

      I’m not sure. That could probably be left as a gray area, ultimately it will be up to individual moderators to remove these posts so maybe we leave that to their discretion.

      Like if someone writes multiple paragraphs and they happen to link a tweet to help support what they’re saying, I think that’s fine. But if the body is just a link to a tweet to get around the ban, then obviously that should be removed.
