RULES
GENERAL
Respect towards others
It's fun to make fun of yourself when it's a game for both sides. Do not exaggerate or touch on sensitive topics that can easily offend the other person (religious, sexual orientation, etc.).
Respect the netiquette
Respect the sacred principles of netiquette as much as possible: find those here
Toxic behaviors
It makes no sense to be in The Gamer's Tavern with the sole purpose of insulting others and being toxic.
Aggressive behaviors
We want our community to be a welcoming and respectful space for everyone. To ensure that we ask you to express your opinions repectfully by:
- avoiding instigating violence against individuals, groups, etc.;
- avoiding personal attacks, insults, or needlessly aggressive tones.
ADDITIONAL RULES FOR MASTODON
Beware of sensitive topics
Use Content Warnings (CW) for sensitive topics as some topics can be difficult or triggering for others. Use a CW for subjects like:
- violence;
- politics;
- mental health;
- tragedies
or any other potentially sensitive discussions.
When in doubt, adding a CW is a good way to show respect for others.
