Actually, I'm channeling the moderation on the User Friendly comments section, (a surprisingly thriving community) where I was a regular for a few years. They've got a "no drama queens" rule that I really like, viz:
if you post a big production goodbye that says basically you're leaving because the board sucks/you people are idiots/etc your account will be permanently disabled. In other words, we will enforce your goodbye so be sure you really want to go before posting something like that.
Personally, I think that rule would be good for pretty much any internet community.
