That CoC is for GitLab the project. Not for GitLab.com. Right now we handle GitLab.com issues on a case by case basis. So far it was only Gamergate but I'm sure more will come up in the future. Gamergate opted to run their own GitLab instance http://gitgud.io/users/sign_in

That wasn't my intention.
I wasn't implying, just noting my feelings. Thanks for being engaged and direct in discussions, btw.
