> 1. Would it just be the "miscommunication" type posts that would be able to be rephrased? Or the "sound off" type ones, too?

> Oh no, no sound off types. If you can't refrain from swearing, attacking or being sarcastic in a very mean way, than you're on the road to block heaven. A poster would only be asked to rephrase something where the intention is unclear . . .So this would depend on distinguishing those two types of posts. And what would distinguish them is the intent behind them?
> 3. I'd rather see people show restraint than keep sounding off and taking it back. Or would there just be an extra PRT step in the process? First a PRT, then a PBC, then being blocked?

> I see the PRT as a separate process. It's an assessment of someone's intention. If they don't rephrase something, or if they rephrase it in such a way that the intention is "deemed" to be negative, then they move into the PBC --> block zone.So every single time there's a "miscommunication", there would be a PRT step?
