Trust was broken on not only the team, but on the chat community itself, and the result was the shutdown. This very same trust breach is what has caused it to stay closed.

I personally would be willing to give a second and last chance. But a very narrow one last chance. At the first sign of problems, I'd immediately advocate for a serious reconsideration of its reopening.

Trust is very hard to rebuild. It's possible, though. However I can't say the decision of reopening chat is lying only on me. After all, it's something the whole Administrator and Bureucrat team would have to decide and coordinate, and it wouldn't be something to be done in a few hours, too.

Frankly, allow me to give a statement: it's alright to have hopes, but be careful to have some room for the negative scenario that could arise. Because there's a chance chat stays closed, no matter what's done.

Past mistakes are forever, even if they were forgiven. I'll tell you all what.

Give me this rule list you users apparently came up, and I will institute them on Spinpasta, where I am a crat and can do so. The same mods will be there, everything like that. You can migrate over there for a month long trial with these rules. I will watch and enforce them, and if they work out, I will give the results to Skelly to do with as he pleases.

 BUT , if it doesn't, that is all, it, done with, and over. I am offering the chance for said chat community to prove that they can be trusted once again. If that isn't good enough for you, which I don't see how it's not, then I don't know what to tell you. Until then, my vote and opinion stays the same.
