Yeah. Tbh a lot of the initial stuff we did was basically handed down from the admins but the community team wanted their cake and ate it too, and we weren't going to nuke the community over the ability to tell each other to kill themselves while we were on reddit. It was first like "don't ping people to tell them to kill themselves" and then "don't ping people to incite harassment" and then "we're adding code into reddit itself to stop you from pinging people."
The demands over time became more ridiculous like the "you can't say to exterminate white people in the sidebar images" thing or whatever. It took a while but
@Aevann, 
@Joan_Wayne_Gacy and others did help get the site set up, which yeah... that helped the community a lot. Props to them for that
I don't know of any prominent users who got banned for saying a specific word and mentioned that to us, but at a time we were like "well the slur thing is untenable" and humorously required people to use the first letter and "-slur" instead for them (+ some other things like "foid"), something /r/ShitRedditSays requires if I recall correctly π€·π»ββοΈ

I guess everything I thought I knew was a lie.
I thought I remembered various "Another One Bites the Dust" threads for various people's alts, but the search is just giving me a bunch of Braincel suicide threads and this https://old.reddit.com/r/Drama/comments/9t4xmp/another_one_the_modocide_continues/ ?
Edit: the Foid-banning https://old.reddit.com/r/Drama/comments/m5r4kn/foid_is_a_slur_and_is_now_banned_from_our/
Part of the problem in trying to find old moderators/regulars screencaps of ban messages is that a lot of them are banned, so you can't just go through their post history.

Yeah some people had memorial threads or whatnot when they self-deleted or got suspended for whatever reason but I don't think we really filtered
He deletes his account every like few weeks for some reason I don't know why (I think that's the same person, I forgot)
Yeah the admins had removed a comment and we were like "hey could you reinstate it this is obviously a joke" and they told us to screw off. Fun fact: I think we somehow found out that that admin who responded there was Aimee Chancellor even though they hid their name in the modmail
They sometimes send us "please stop doing this" PMs which is hilarious when half the time they don't even bother linking the thing that was an issue for them and then go off on some vague "culture of harassment" nonsense, which is slightly annoying the first 30 times.
They did demod DoctorFahrenheit outright for calling GallowBoob a p-dophile
