Thanks for putting this up @Entropy. A delegate code of conduct is more than welcome at this time given the size and engagement of the Arbitrum DAO.

I initially had a question regarding monitoring/policing of these violators but I see you have answered them here.

> Most clauses in the code of conduct are written as guiding principles that delegates should seek to embody. The responsibility falls on all delegates to hold each other accountable. It takes the entire community to create and maintain a professional culture. Similar to the Arbitrum DAO Constitution’s community values, with these principles actually written out, the code of conduct provides contributors a basis for behavior that should be promoted.

Zooming out though, another question that ties to the above would be this: On the discovery and ban of the violators of this CoC, for how long would they be banned/suspended? Would it span over a six-month/12-month period? Or more?

Finally, is there a rationale behind this 3% of all votable tokens? Just wondering, and please point me in the right direction if there is one already.
