The Veloren Code of Conduct

Conduct

Contact: velorenmods@gmail.com

  • We are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all, regardless of level of experience, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, age, religion, nationality, or other similar characteristic.
  • On Discord, Gitlab, or any other community area, please avoid using overtly sexual nicknames or other nicknames that might detract from a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all.
  • Please be kind and courteous. There's no need to be mean or rude.
  • Respect that people have differences of opinion and that every design or implementation choice carries a trade-off and numerous costs. There is seldom a right answer.
  • We will exclude you from interaction if you insult, demean or harass anyone. That is not welcome behavior; we strive to be inclusive. In particular, we don't tolerate behavior that excludes people in socially marginalized groups.
  • Private harassment is also unacceptable. No matter who you are, if you feel you have been or are being harassed or made uncomfortable by a community member, please contact one of the @admin or @core developers roles on Discord, or email velorenmods@gmail.com. Whether you're a regular contributor or a newcomer, we care about making this community a safe place for you and we've got your back.
  • Likewise any spamming, trolling, flaming, baiting or other attention-stealing behavior is not welcome.

Moderation

These are the policies for upholding our community's standards of conduct. If you feel that a thread needs moderation, please contact the @admin or @core developers roles on Discord, or send an email to velorenmods@gmail.com

  1. Remarks that violate the Veloren standards of conduct, including hateful, hurtful, oppressive, or exclusionary remarks, are not allowed. (Cursing in general is discouraged, and never tolerated if targeting another user, and never in a hateful manner.)
  2. Remarks that moderators find inappropriate, whether listed in the code of conduct or not, are also not allowed.
  3. Moderators will first respond to such remarks with a warning.
  4. If the warning is unheeded, the user will be "kicked," i.e., kicked out of the communication channel to cool off.
  5. If the user comes back and continues to make trouble, they will be banned, i.e., indefinitely excluded.
  6. Moderators may choose at their discretion to un-ban the user if it was a first offense and they offer the offended party a genuine apology.
  7. If a moderator bans someone and you think it was unjustified, please take it up with that moderator, or with a different moderator, in private. Complaints about bans in-channel are not allowed.
  8. Moderators, organization members, and anyone closely involved with the Veloren project are held to a higher standard than other community members. If a moderator creates an inappropriate situation, they should expect less leeway than others.

In the Veloren community we strive to go the extra step to look out for each other. Don't just aim to be technically unimpeachable, try to be your best self. In particular, avoid flirting with offensive or sensitive issues, particularly if they're off-topic; this all too often leads to unnecessary fights, hurt feelings, and damaged trust; worse, it can drive people away from the community entirely.

And if someone takes issue with something you said or did, resist the urge to be defensive. Just stop doing what it was they complained about and apologize. Even if you feel you were misinterpreted or unfairly accused, chances are good there was something you could've communicated better — remember that it's your responsibility to make your fellow Veloren community members comfortable. Everyone wants to get along and we are all here first and foremost because we want to talk about making games. You will find that people will be eager to assume good intent and forgive as long as you earn their trust.

The enforcement policies listed above apply to all official Veloren venues; including all Veloren Discord channels; Gitlab and GitHub repositories under Veloren; and any other social media platforms related to Veloren.

_This Code of Conduct is based on the Amethyst Code of Conduct, available here which is based on the Rust Code of Conduct, available here.
