This is having the exact opposite effect on me. I don't want to use reddit because I'm afraid that by getting in a disagreement with someone, they're going to report me and you're going to ban me. I have spent time debating people, which can be confrontational, and even though I don't take it to an extreme level I still don't feel okay with even participating in a debate anymore when your rules are so poorly defined. If you're going to come up with a blanket rule like this that affects everything, you could at least be clear enough that people can actually tell what it takes to break it.

The rules are poorly defined but you also come off really paranoid. Are you not used to there being, y'know, rules that you have to be mindful of? Do you have anything solid that's contributing to your discomfort while debating? Are you slipping death and rape threats into your discourse or something?
