OK @yar0x - I'd like to highlight that the behaviour being displayed by these casters is a violation of the Terms of Use. Would respectfully request that @angelus.eth and @arrowx31 be banned from the channel. Threats of violence have no place in political discussions. https://warpcast.com/angelus.eth/0x437c8265

I'm sorry but unfortunately i don't have any admin rights. But I'd still wonder what do @traimp and @kaimala think about this? p.s. these two are still learning so pls bear with them :)

Who does have admin rights? Saw your Pinned Cast and assumed it was you.

Thanks, @yar0x. Hi @ehcarpenter - We've never banned anyone from the /politics channel as of yet and preferred to let people to curate their feed by blocking users. I raised this request with the team that helps advise the channel. I'll follow-up.

That would be an acceptable answer if not for the blatant violation of the Terms of Use, and the literal death threats from one of the Casters involved. I appreciate you raising the request and look forward to the answer.

In full transparency, here's some of my considerations and thoughts. 1. The Terms of Use -- this is for warpcast at large so wouldn't the request be for @dwr.eth to ban the users? I'm not sure how banning someone from the channel restricts their views or ability to post. arrowx31 is not a current member of the channel. Although, membership doesn't have any impact as everyone can cast and reply. 2. Generally, I have been afraid of having too much influence on the channel as I have been viewing it as a public space. There should probably be better defined exceptions to this. Although, I'm a firm believer that all political views should be seen in the open - even if I don't believe with them. 3. Maybe the channel should change and we move away from it being a public space.

I, too, believe that political ideas should be seen in the open - but I do not believe that the statement "Dig a hole, I'll bring them both" with a knife emoji, in the context of a member of the Far Right posting a picture of a gay Muslim who are excited to have voted to be a 'political idea.' How, I ask, would you feel if the people in the picture was a son, brother, or cousin of yours? They are the sons, brothers, or cousins of SOMEONE.

I agree. That statement went too far, but it was a reply to a post by someone who is not a member of the channel. I can ban them for threatening violence; our team doesn't have a problem with that, but I don't believe that would prevent them from being able to reply or solve anything in this instance.
