Be Kind
- Don’t be mean.
- Insulting anyone is prohibited.
- Harassment of any kind is prohibited.
- If another person feels uncomfortable with your remarks, stop it.
- If a moderator deems your comment or conduct as inappropriate, stop it.
- Disagreeing is fine, but keep it to technical arguments. Never attack the person.
- Give the benefit of the doubt. Assume good intentions.
- Show empathy. There are 3 interpretations to any message: what we thought, what we said, and what they understand.
- This does mean we exclude people who are not kind. We are happy to make that sacrifice.
