you could rely on more consistent PBCs, shorter and more frequent blocks--
more specific, individualized responses when people get close to or go over line in misdemeanor ways (which most are)-- not just a formulaic phrase-- or an impersonal block
asking people to go to chat and talk through what's going on with them, before blocking them -- and only blocking them for shorter periods of time--
not having this blind system of escalating blocks--
Stop the system of doubling blocks. Doubling IMO doesn't make sense-- much shorter blocks would give everyone more incentive (and possibility) to keep Babble a consistent place where people can be involved and get support, response--even if they lose it in relatively non-threatening or containable ways
