/me puts Admin Hat on.

Hi everybody!

The bsd.network instance has a new Code Of Conduct, viewable at https://bsd.network/terms or via the "Terms and Conditions" link that is sprinkled around a few places.

The TL;DR is "be cool unto others". However, since society at large has demonstrated they can't be cool, we had to write out a bunch of things.

@phessler @aag @pamela may I say that it saddens me greatly that we actually need to have a Code of Conduct?

I thank you infinitely for providing us with what I like to think of as a “BSD pub” and for having the patience to sit down to write a Code of Conduct just because the world has taken such an unfortunate direction 

@cynicalsecurity @aag @pamela I'm not happy about it either, but I am thankful we haven't needed to use this yet.

We've only had a very small handful of problematic users, and they left on their own after pretty much everyone else shouted at them.

@phessler @aag @pamela even the friendliest of country pubs has its occasional gate crasher 

Let’s hope the new code keeps them from joining in the first place… but there will always be someone looking for a fight.

We shall fight back with a preponderance of flan! 

@phessler @cynicalsecurity @aag @pamela

Better to have it and not need it than the other way around.

@phessler @aag @pamela From my study on the topic, this looks real solid.

"We own this, and if you're an ass we'll boot you. If you're an ass looking for a safe space to hang out, here's some things we think are assy so you should just move on, you festering pustule."

@mwlucas @aag @pamela I hope you noticed that I was pretty subtle on "here's the door. I'll even guide you to it."

@phessler @aag @pamela Perhaps too subtle? I mean, you didn't even threaten to throw people in the street.

This is our local, you're the barkeep...
