I like what JB is saying here.

Is there a code of conduct or a set of rules for people representing the
project?

If so, is there an agreed upon procedure to respond to cases where these
are not respected?

This would make the whole matter more consensual and any decision regarding
breaking the rules more objective and less personal.
