| 2 | + | Welcome to ##chat, a libera social channel. This page has been set up to give an outline of the channel guidelines. If you are | |
| 3 | + | looking for the FAQ, you may be able to find your answer here. | |
| 4 | + | ||
| 5 | + | Please see the libera network policy at https://libera.chat/policies. The following ##chat guidelines apply in addition to these policies. | |
| 6 | + | ||
| 7 | + | The ##chat moderator team does everything it does with the best interests of the community at heart. We think that making rules sucks, | |
| 8 | + | but unfortunately with a community of this size it’s necessary to have some ground rules firmly in place for us to keep doing what | |
| 9 | + | we’re doing. We want these rules to be 100% transparent and consistently enforced/followed. We realize that no set of rules is | |
| 10 | + | sufficient to handle all possible scenarios. If we did not cover a specific circumstance, please respect our decisions. However, you | |
| 11 | + | are encouraged to bring any and all concerns up in ##chat-ops; we will look at each individual case and, if necessary, clarify the | |
| 12 | + | issue and/or change our channel guidelines accordingly. | |
| 13 | + | ||
| 14 | + | Channel operators can be determined with: /msg ChanServ FLAGS ##chat | |
| 15 | + | ||
| 16 | + | General Rules | |
| 17 | + | The ##chat channel should be a place where everybody can feel comfortable. | |
| 18 | + | 01 Be civil and respect other people and their opinions, whether you agree or not. | |
| 19 | + | 02 Please do not be rude, judgmental or belittling. | |
| 20 | + | 03 Do not accuse, provoke or intentionally offend others, request kicks or bans in public or engage in personal attacks. | |
| 21 | + | 04 Do not discuss or taunt users who have been removed, kicked, banned, quieted or devoiced. | |
| 22 | + | 05 Do not substitute single letters such as 'u' and 'r' for whole words such as 'you' and 'are' as this is considered annoying and, | |
| 23 | + | if you are asked to stop, you are to stop. Initialisms, acronyms, and multi-word abbreviations are generally fine (BRB, AFK, etc). | |
| 24 | + | Examples (list not comprehensive): ur (your/you are), 2ce (twice), 2 (to, too), b (be) | |
| 25 | + | 06 If you are asked to not use l33t sp34k, please stop. This is not actively enforced, so please don't abuse this. | |
| 26 | + | 07 Do not spam. What is and is not spam is left to the discretion of the operators. | |
| 27 | + | 08 No ranting. ##chat is not your audience for your stream-of-thoughts, your blog, or your soapbox. If you are asked to drop a | |
| 28 | + | topic or take it somewhere else, please do so. | |
| 29 | + | 09 Try to keep the channel, your behavior, and topics discussed family-friendly (see Topics #5/#6 below). This includes keeping | |
| 30 | + | swearing to a minimum. If you are told a topic is inappropriate, it is inappropriate. If you are unsure if a topic is | |
| 31 | + | appropriate, please ask! We appreciate people asking first. | |
| 32 | + | 10 No cross-channel drama. This includes complaining about getting banned, and the decisions of any other channel operator or | |
| 33 | + | network admin. | |
| 34 | + | 11 Please speak English while in ##chat. | |
| 35 | + | ||
| 36 | + | Technical Rules | |
| 37 | + | 01 Don’t flood the channel or abuse the channel for rants. | |
| 38 | + | 02 Bots (of any sort) and scripts (that do or say anything) are not permitted without explicit operator approval. | |
| 39 | + | If you think a bot, script, or function might assist the channel, ASK FIRST. | |
| 40 | + | 03 We reserve the right to remove annoying people. | |
| 41 | + | 04 Do not share non-HTTP/S (or FTP with disclaimer) links in ##chat. | |
| 42 | + | This includes Onion, I2p, Gemini, Gopher, and similar protocols. | |
| 43 | + | If a link cannot be immediately viewed by all channel operators it will be considered potentially dangerous and | |
| 44 | + | the situation will be dealt with accordingly. | |
| 45 | + | 05 Do not share piracy links (dht:, .torrent, magnet:, etc) or speak about piracy (or things which are implying piracy) | |
| 46 | + | in a positive or otherwise endorsing fashion. | |
| 47 | + | ||
| 48 | + | Topics | |
| 49 | + | We hope that ##chat is an interesting place, however some topics are not suitable: | |
| 50 | + | 01 Racism and intolerant speech of any kind is never permitted. | |
| 51 | + | 02 Any topic that is not allowed on libera, is still not allowed in ##chat. | |
| 52 | + | 03 Some topics are controversial and often end in negativity. Take care on subjects like war, religion, sexuality, potentially | |
| 53 | + | illegal activities and the like. These topics are not banned, but should be approached responsibly; stating your position is | |
| 54 | + | ok, but trolling, baiting, hostility or repetition are not. | |
| 55 | + | 04 If you are asked to stop, do so politely. | |
| 56 | + | 05 A lot of people use libera as part of their job, therefore please keep the channel “safe for work”. Consider this in both your | |
| 57 | + | in-channel discussions and when selecting your quit/part messages. | |
| 58 | + | 06 Please do not link to anything which could cause offense or be not safe-for-work. Keep foul, vulgar or profane language (or | |
| 59 | + | acronyms or substitutes which imply foul, vulgar or profane language) to a minimum. | |
| 60 | + | 07 No politics. This includes complaining about the ##politics channel (or any other channel which discusses politics). | |
| 61 | + | ||
| 62 | + | Operator Decisions | |
| 63 | + | 01 Respect decisions. Channel ops work hard to be fair and balanced, but may not always resolve issues exactly the way you would. | |
| 64 | + | 02 Acting in bad faith (for example, arguing publicly over the legitimacy of anything an operator does, or attempting to | |
| 65 | + | circumvent the rules or spirit of the channel, such as "creatively" swearing) is not tolerated. | |
| 66 | + | 03 In the event you are banned or have issues with a decision in ##chat made by operators, please do not ask about it or complain | |
| 67 | + | about it in any channel besides ##chat-ops -- you are welcome to bring it up there. | |
| 68 | + | ||
| 69 | + | Bot commands | |
| 70 | + | 01 +commands to reference the command list, https://pastebin.com/raw/sRaG51VD | |
| 71 | + | 02 Bot access can be revoked at any time for any reason. | |
| 72 | + | 03 Do not abuse the bot or any other channel bot/service, including to spam, harass users, bypass ignores, or anything similar. | |
