If you were me, what would you have done differently?
I'm not asking as rhetorical device. It sounds like it's clear to you what should have happened and what happened instead, letting group moderation outlaw it, makes me a "PoS". Maybe we can add different kinds of group moderation that yield your ideal outcome.

Uphold your own Content Standards, dickhead.
If I were the owner of this site, I would have removed the user after they had made multiple death threats.

You mean you'd remove their account? Would you also remove all their content? What would you do with their money? How would you prevent them from returning? Is there anything else you'd do that I haven't asked a specific question about?

Sure, remove their content. Take all their funds and donate them to the Human Rights Foundation. While you're at it, put their username up for sale at 10M sats. They can buy it back if they want, or start fresh with zero reputation.
Frankly, the specifics of what I think you should have done are irrelevant. This isn't about my ideal solution, it's about you failing to enforce your own stated rules.
Look, I’m not fucking stupid. This site, is what, 4 years old? I know you must have considered all of these scenarios and the tradeoffs involved. And you've already made a decision. You've decided to prioritize... what, exactly? Avoiding conflict? Protecting a toxic user? What value are you prioritizing that outweighs the safety of your community and the credibility of your own Content Standards?
I'm not interested in debating hypotheticals with you. It's obvious you're just trying to deflect and eventually justify inaction. These sats are wasted talking to you.

Nothing said online can actually threaten your safety, unless they doxxed you.

I never called you stupid and I'm not debating you. My questions were asked in earnest.
I was trying to figure out what you want exactly. Especially because I don't know what I want exactly and maybe if you do I might learn more about what I want.
I know you must have considered all of these scenarios and the tradeoffs involved.
I've thought about these scenarios hardly at all. If that's a mistake, that's one I've made.
You've decided to prioritize... what, exactly? Avoiding conflict? Protecting a toxic user?
Not acting when I don't know what to do.
What value are you prioritizing that outweighs the safety of your community and the credibility of your own Content Standards?
The value I'm prioritizing is more of a rule-of-thumb: when I don't have a clue what's best, and the decision effects more than me, I don't unilaterally begin doing things. I don't operate with a high level of confidence in the world, a level of confidence where I think I know what's best for other people. I'm also not a punitive person and I'm tolerant to a fault - either by nature or nurture.
Also, fwiw, the content standards are a copy-and-paste from another social media website that we added just to have something. afaik these things are written to allow a generous window of subjectivity when making controversial decisions with regard to a service. Meaning, they aren't an operating manual - they're a legal shield.
These sats are wasted talking to you.
I suspect you'll think I'm being cute, but I'm sorry you feel like you wasted sats talking to me and I'm sorry most of all that I disappointed you (or anyone) by not doing enough if I should have done more.
