I retroactively apologize that we had a Points system in GNOME Bugzilla (before GitLab) which gave an impression how experienced and active a user is. Must have been pretty horrible if I understand you correctly. > There are valid reasons to moderate or ban a user, but usually such a > user is barred by an individual part of a project, not by the whole > universe and before it happens a user must have expressed something that > is unwanted. We also ban users in GNOME GitLab etc if they violate the GNOME Code of Conduct. There are many universes out there, nothing new.
