There's no way you can make sure it doesn't happen again short of removing the chat module from the wiki, or permabanning every single Wikia account from chat. Because as long as there's someone around to do it, it's possible it might happen.

So with that out of the way, let's consider that to stop inappropriate conversations from happening, you decided to send the mods into sprsrsbsnssprstrct mode, and when you tell them to be stricter, they're not going to be just a bit stricter, they're going all the way to something I had on chat last night. I got warned for saying ":c" twice in a short span of time. That's what you've done; they're stopping people from posting emotes now, not preventing inappropriate conversations.

Besides, if you want them to stop inappropriate conversations, you don't need to make mods stricter on every issue in the policy. That's just dumb; not everything is an inappropriate conversation. And then you need to make sure the person you just banned actually was saying inappropriate things or not; was it a misunderstanding? Did someone else start it? Did they deserve a ban for it? There's other people around than the mod and the user; listen to them and see what they have to say. Eyewitnesses. Use them.
