It would be lovely if there was an option to view people post history available to the users - assortment of comments quoted here over time by some regular visitors suggest that they themselves may suffer from defaultbro-basicbeetch-normieconformie-enpeesea syndrome. Staff can do that, it's not like the feature isn't already implemented into the code.
As for the topic at hand: I'm unable to find it but maybe a year ago pair of comments made rounds on reddit: under some generic yaoi manga random user wrote "looks pretty gay to me". Very defaultbro on its own, but then there was a response from someone on the staff: "you're banned for three days for using sexual orientation as a slur".
I mean... that's pretty basic 2021 mind reading.
(it's how I learned about mangadex existence btw)
edit: found it and
turns out my memory has been heavily colorized

Calling something "gay" is not acceptable on MD and is a violation of rule 5.1, Be Civil.
