Fellow social.coop users: let's talk about a Code of Conduct!
Some useful resources:
- https://www.ashedryden.com/blog/codes-of-conduct-101-faq
- http://geekfeminism.wikia.com/wiki/Anti-harassment_policy_resources
Particularly this bit on what makes a CoC:
"- statement of unacceptable behavior
- how the policy will be enforced
- how and whom to make an incident report to
- training and reference materials for organizers, staff, and volunteers" (or, in our case, admins & mods)
Here's an example of an all-purpose code of conduct: http://citizencodeofconduct.org/
Note that it includes examples of acceptable as well as unacceptable behaviour.
Some informal proposals for things we might include:
- NSFW content must be tagged/CW'd
- no Nazis
- no arguing that banning Nazis is just as bad as being Nazis
- be kind
- be helpful to newbies
- respect people's boundaries
@adinfinitum These were just examples - I agree that the rules should be broader!
I think Nazis are a good starting point though.
