for site rules i'd say to start
No targeted harassment -- calling someone an idiot is one thing but when you start to get personal in an attempt to hurt someone then it crosses the line imo.
No blatant hate speech -- different political opinions does not count as hate speech, for an example Numeta posting stats about BLM protests with black crime rates, or people voting for trump. I've seen people say supporting trump is hate speech since trump "supports racism and is anti-trans"
What happens in the lounge stays in the lounge. Its meant to be a safe spot for people to be able to post without having it thrown back in their face. an example is Insom posting about his dates and being nervous about them -- people shouldnt harass him about being nervous for a date.
No intentional griefing. derailing a thread or spamming memes or just attacking someone in ANY thread really shouldn't be a thing.
Also we already have a [Serious] Sub Forum in the General section. As you said before derailing and anything off topic should be against guidelines.
But if there is a way to add like categories when you create a thread so a thread posted in ANY section can be a [Serious] thread that would be nice.
and maybe we should emphasize that Flagging should be used to report a post to moderators -- not to say "i disagree with this"
i've said that sort of thing in threads that were getting heated between two users where they'd just try to get eachothers posts hidden simply bc they disagree with them
what i posted in mod chat for my offering of rules/guidelines

Everything here looks good imo
So with number 1 if Someone gets personal in an attempt to have another someone be a better overall person instead of a scumbag like they continue to be how’s that gonna be judged

I'm sure you played no small part.
That's what I am worried about
I literally have no idea who would have said that so it's
90% chance it was a troll pm
10% chance several of us mistreated someone without knowing
Either way it would be worth reading

If you’re truly worried I’ll point out that your tone appears a bit lacking. Looks more like a challenge than a concern.

I want to express that I am absolutely uncomfortable with Kyle as mod. I cannot emphasize it enough.

Because he posts a lot? I can't think of any other reason.
Cause he presses the ban button on new accounts and no one else wants to do that
I nominate you replace kyle
But first, will you ban people for calling you stupid, calling your decisions stupid, or making fun of you?
And will you close threads with active discussion because someone makes fun of you in said thread?
