By each comment, I'm now putting a "civility score", which is the ratio of the user's civil comments to total comments made since Feb 15, 2017.
Civil comments are simply those that are reasonably polite.
If a comment does attack another user's character, personality, or other attribute of the user making an argument, use the "uncivil" link to flag it. It will go into comment jail. Anyone can view comment jail.
The user can edit the jailed comment, and Patrick will get notified of the edit, and then perhaps liberate it back to the thread it came from, also restoring the user's lost civility point automatically.
Eventually I'm going to let the most civil users liberate comments from jail so I don't have to be the judge.
