RULE 2.1READING / 3 PARAGRAPHS

Respectful Conduct

Treat members as people, not targets. Personal attacks, sustained hostility, humiliation, degrading nicknames, baiting, dogpiling, and conduct designed to make someone feel unwelcome are prohibited.

Disagreement and criticism are allowed when directed at ideas or actions and expressed proportionately. Criticism becomes misconduct when it shifts into intimidation, repeated personal ridicule, invasive speculation, or an attempt to rally others against a person.

Friendly banter requires shared context and ongoing consent. A friendship, past consent, or another participant laughing does not override a clear request to stop.
