Jul 4, 2018 at 16:26 comment added fbueckert @Makoto I sincerely doubt there's anything we can do to make everyone happy, short of handing them all their answers on a silver platter, without any thought, effort, or movement required on their part. So if it makes your life a little easier to just downvote and close, then you can save your critical thinking for a question that really deserves it.
Jul 4, 2018 at 15:20 comment added Makoto @AndrasDeak: That's how I've begun to operate, anyway. I've had less friction come from it, but I bet it isn't pacifying the OPs out there...
Jul 4, 2018 at 11:47 comment added Andras Deak -- Слава Україні So much this. I can hardly wait until questions get downvoted and closed in complete silence for fear of violating the CoC. How welcoming it will be!
Jul 4, 2018 at 8:43 comment added John Dvorak I'm offended by the new CoC. Where do I flag?
Jul 4, 2018 at 1:25 comment added Masked Man This CoC is going to end up as a stick to beat up people with. We already notice a fair amount of unnecessary flagging, especially in chat. With the threshold for "offensive" now officially reduced to "at least one person found it offensive", expect more drama in the days to come.

Jul 3, 2018 at 18:57 comment added Makoto @Helmar: The new policy mutates (at least for Stack Overflow) what is an already mutated form of the stated mission of Stack Overflow. Mutating it further doesn't help matters.
Jul 3, 2018 at 16:57 comment added Helmar How is scope creep or any scope issue a Code of Conduct thing?
Jul 3, 2018 at 16:53 comment added dmi3kno Agree that CoC implies increased role of moderators, both in importance and in volume. It is unclear how StackOverflow is going to address it. I would love to see clear communication re: what is going to change in the way moderators are nominated, educated and monitored.
