I& #39;ve seen 3 questions circulating in TTRPG-world:
-how do we design a system to prevent harm/predators?
-how to we make accountability?
-how do we help people heal/move towards restoration?
These questions are pretty core to moving towards a culture of openness and care!

but/and/also:
you can& #39;t preemptively solve for harm or predators by making the right rules.
accountability is an action. it& #39;s a practice. and you can& #39;t make someone do it.
there& #39;s no one-size-fits-all framework for restorative practices.

Nothing drives home human agency like doing consent work. Specifically, that a process of accountability and healing requires *all parties* to be deeply committed to it. And that it& #39;s exhausting and hard. And people walk away.
That& #39;s not a thing you can design away.

I& #39;m glad folks are engaging w these questions, and with the complicated ways that bigger power structures (see: race) show up in community issues.
I know what I know because activists of color have been writing on this for decades. And this thread is not even surface-level
