I'm with you on this. Privacy should be held in the highest regard, I can't believe there are so many people that don't understand this simple concept.
Given the influx of users from reddit and voat, I think there is a growing community of people who think it should be tolerated even if they don't participate themselves. Thus, with the growth of the community I don't know how long your prediction will hold true.
I would like to think that, and hope it's true. But, if snapzu ever does take off to the same degree reddit did, I think this question will have to be answered.
You say the 'community would quickly repel it' - but does the community have a say in whether or not a tribe exists? Or could I go make such a tribe right now and use word of mouth to get members to join 'under the radar'?
Sure, but that doesn't mean that it ceased to exist, does it? I mean, if people really want to make a tribe to deride fat people or some race or another, then they can make it and post things and just not worry about the downvotes, right? So, I make a tribe and posts that people happen upon get downvoted to oblivion - does that mean that people i point to /t/reallymeantribe can't see the content there?

Threatening - Don't threaten people, you wouldn't threaten someone at your birthday party. Don't PM threats and don't post any type of threats in snaps / text posts or comments.
Harmful - Whatever you wouldn't do to yourself because your brain instinctively tells you "its bad", don't do to other people. Unless you're a psychopath, then, just, use the code that your father taught you on how not to hurt others.
Unlawful - Illegal stuff gets everyone in trouble, so lets not do illegal stuff. Don't post illegal downloads, music, pictures or anything else that would otherwise land you in jail if engaged in on another medium (like a bazaar).
Abusive - Don't partake in abusive behaviour either by yourself or in a group. No witch hunts, no bullying, no posting of personal information, anything that you would dread happening to you, DON'T do it to others.
Harassment - It's alright to have a heated discussion on whatever topic comes to mind, but don't continue to repetitively PM someone after they have given you obviou...

Libellous - Don't post personal information, don't post defamatory content about other individuals. I'm sure everyone of us hates negative untrue rumors going around about ourselves, this is even worse.
I think its fair to say that anything depicting any sort of harassment to people on and "off" the site will be unacceptable. We WILL enforce these rules, but like I mentioned earlier I believe the community will play a big part in keeping things civil.
