This includes being positive, respectful, and mature. Emphasis on respect.
We have zero tolerance for negative behaviors including but not exclusive to the following:
Drama, rudeness, selfishness, narcissism, toxicity, racism, sexism, repeatedly interrupting people.
Keep it civil and polite. We get together to have fun with nice people.
If there is conflict, resolve it privately if possible first, then resume group discussions and activities.
Do not argue with moderators or any management or leadership. Respect their decisions as final.
If there is a concern pertaining to the behavior of someone with a lead role, reach out to their senior.
If having a bad day and unable to follow the rules, then step away for a bit and come back later.
Family-friendly discussions. We're all adults; we still keep it clean.
