So I was wrong about the rule? Maybe we need a general clarifying post because I’ve never seen anyone offer disengagement as an option and someone else get banned as a result. posts that say “disengage” without commentary is usually how I’ve seen it.

If the so-called options being provided are verbatim “Block me or disengage with me.” I frankly don’t think we need clarification on whether or not you are being asked to disengage.

Good to know, because I’ve seen mods take harder lines on the disengage rule than this. Glad to have a standard to point to going forward

This isn’t a standard for moderation, nor was it moderated out of line. It’s a human interaction, and each of them are unique situations, dealt with by mods who aren’t a hive mind.

The point is that it should be clear when somebody is telling you to disengage and leave them alone. If you think you’ve asked earnestly and didn’t receive a disengagement, you can ask the mods by reporting the questionable content post-disengagement request and giving the additional info.
