Moderation Team Accountability Issues

Thinking that creation of the moderation team has changed the processes or the style of moderation is mistaken. The RFC, when compared to reality before it, effectively said that the people doing the moderation are given specific places for announcing team changes and bans, and otherwise continue whatever they were doing before.

I do agree that even the briefest summary of what moderators found the key unacceptable component of world-visible behaviour — have we ever had a ban purely for unacceptable PMs? — would be a useful addition to posting a general summary of moderation principles (call it CoC ot whatever), maybe even a more useful thing than CoC on its own (although it is useful to say that moderators agree that the general policy of enforcement aligns with some text).
