Ok so I should have explained the rep system a bit more. So far there are 4 trust levels untrusted, neutral, positive and trusted. Each level has different limits. If you maintain untrusted status for a set amount of time (default is a week but its configurable) you get dropped. So you don't get kicked off the relay right away. There is time to recover.

On your first example my only pushback is I don't like logging IP addresses for user privacy reasons and try to avoid it when I can, but IPs are also public so /shrug I might do this but right now I'm not. I kinda like the idea of lowering rep for repeated rate limit failures. This could help with bots that are not necessarily bad but post a lot if random stuff IE I've seen some bots that repost MSM news every minute or so, if no one was interacting they would be dropped eventually.

The community mod thing kinda sounds like what ditto does, but it's all on the relay admins to make the final decision on if they get kicked or not, but it's all based on user reports. (it's not a voting system like the one you describe, though) and that was kind of my attempt with the 1984 reports. They are weighted a bit stronger that normal things like spam check failure, and invalid Nip-05's

I'm debating making an admin interface that has things like banned Npubs or something so it's easy for admins to unblock people if they want. But right now it's not something I'm super worried about.
