@Gargron @trwnh yeah #2 feels very like "tell me Winston Smith, what is 2+2? if you don't answer 5, you will be banned again."

If the content is truly objectionable, then take action on it. If the user's behavior is objectionable, take action on their access. Forcing behavior upon conditionals satisfies neither unless you believe that such a method modifies behavior for the better.

@Gargron @trwnh There's no reason no.2 needs to be a carbon copy of Facebook's system. I do appreciate the idea of presenting it more as an intervention, with a support system ready to help sort it out, rather than the only option being to wipe out the post and ban the user. It could become another opportunity to engage the fact that, ideally, we are the ones moderating ourselves in the Fediverse.
