Welcome. While this might seem to be beating a dead horse, I don’t think you will be able to regain the trust of the community without first repairing the most famous instance of betraying that trust: removing Monica’s diamond. I don’t want to appear insensitive, but I can’t imagine what damage (to an individual, to an agenda, or to the organization) that SE thinks would occur that would be so great as to outweigh regaining community trust, if that trust or the community was valued.

The only conclusion I can come to that makes any sense, is that neither the trust nor the community itself is seen as valuable.

PS: it’s good to see something that doesn’t look it was written by lawyers trying to avoid admitting that something negative might have happened, somewhere, sometime, to someone.

PPS: If the above is a failure of my imagination, then please clearly state what SE believes would happen that is so terrible if Monica’s status were restored.
