 ## Preamble
 
-The Internet is huge, so you're inevitably going to run into people who have poor social skills, a bad day, or enjoyed too much coffee. If issues arising from disrespectful, abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior cannot be resolved even after choosing a smaller cup, our policy is to save everyone's time and politely inform them that this is not the right community for them.

If issues arising from disrespectful, abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior cannot be resolved even after choosing a smaller cup, our policy is to politely inform them that this isn't the right community for them so everyone involved can spend their time doing something meaningful instead.
