Apr 17, 2019 at 22:51 comment added user212646 When rooms holistically are toxic, then SE staff needs to step in and permanently freeze and delete them. Give the users official warnings and/or suspend if they are repeat offenders. That's how the sites work regarding posts.
Apr 17, 2019 at 22:48 comment added user212646 The theory of moderation on chat the same: light touch, community driven. So we should be slow to delete/suspend, assume goodwill, and let the community decide when possible. The issue here is that "community" is anyone in the network with 10K+ rep across the network. That's not really what we mean when we say community. Could you imagine someone from Superuser managing flags on Worldbuilding? Of course that's ridiculous, but that's how chat moderation is designed.
Dec 15, 2015 at 13:56 comment added trichoplax is on Codidact now Provided the room annotations are only readable by mods and the room owners, I'm very much in favour of room annotations.
Dec 11, 2015 at 9:21 comment added Journeyman Geek Oh, I was considering driveby help vampires (who add little to chat) and folk wandering in. And the fact that it raises the bar slightly. 100 rep sounds like a nice number. 200 would be be better. Considering we move stuff from comments to chat 50 sounds like a compromise I can live with
Dec 10, 2015 at 21:11 comment added Travis J I really like your idea of room annotations for mods. I think that context is very difficult to grasp and once one mod does understand it there isn't an easy way to convey that - especially over time. I also agree that 20 reputation made sense when Jon Skeet had 50,000; but perhaps now that he has 800,000 it makes sense to raise the 20 reputation cap to something more applicable to "reputation inflation" (for lack of a better word).
Dec 10, 2015 at 19:02 comment added user158781 I'd definitely appreciate a mod/RO inbox for any of these proposed chat mod messages and chat annotations. It would help ensure the people who regularly interact with the moderated are well informed on current events.

Ordered list for recommendations (Two "Secondly"s in three paragraphs was hard to parse). Minor grammar improvement.
