Basically, a CoC can be the opposite of what it intended to be, as it can be weaponized by people who want to start problems in a community. They can be vague, punishment can be selective, and they can be confusing messes. I tried to find something on how CoC’s are destructive in this manner, but I don’t recall what it was.
What specifically about the CoC will cause issues? Can you provide examples or specific concerns? Your comments aren’t making a lot of sense in the context of OP.
I was essentially commenting on a separate comment, not OP’s post in particular.
As for concerns about the CoC, people can read the CoC and learn how to bend the rules so as to get people in trouble. That was my huge red flag if there was a CoC.
