   @notroot does your post violate your instance's moderation rules? Do you have written down rules or do you apply your personal judgment? Would you moderate the post / poster if someone else had said it? How about if they changed a few words, e.g. subbing he for she or black for latino? Is there a way to appeal moderation actions?

     @colo_lee I don't think it breaks the rules. It was probably the last rhetorical line "GTFO out [of Twitter] or get blocked" that did it.

     Here's my instance rules:

     I wrote a thread the other day reflecting on how to deal with #moderation when you're running a solo #mastodon #instance. If my admin (me) receives a report about one of my users (again, me)... what do I do?

     Well, it's happened. I have been reported to me. The hypothetical has become actual. Should I delete the toot, or punish myself?

     I am obviously not an unbiased judge.
