Just remember every time you tweak the defaults, the 90% of your site owners using those defaults suddenly have a significant shift in their moderation policy that they are themselves unaware of.
(I moderated a vBulletin forum in the 1990s. This shit gets really, really, really hard, and no one is ever really happy with it.)
Sorry -- should have been more clear: We are shifting the defaults on the demo site, not on respectify itself.
Thanks for a great point, though. Finding the best defaults will be very important, and we can't tweak it like that very often if at all.

I feel that. I used to moderate the Object Pascal Compuserve forum. That was hard enough!
This one was for gamers.
I’m pretty sure we created a few budding lawyers out of some high schoolers.
