I’ve read something like that in Cory Doctorow’s Reverse Centaure : when a metric becomes a goal, it’s not good rule anymore. (There’s a name for this rule but I don’t remember it)

!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

I say this all the time, but a lot of problems are directly downstream from assholes who don't do work making decisions. ✨ Capitalism! ✨
