If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.\n* Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.\n* Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.\n* Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying.
