| 1 | +# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +## Our Pledge |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as |
| 6 | +contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our |
| 7 | +project and our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, |
| 8 | +regardless of age (see addendum), body size, disability, ethnicity, |
| 9 | +gender identity and expression, level of experience, nationality, |
| 10 | +personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and |
| 11 | +orientation. |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +## Our Standards |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive |
| 16 | +environment include: |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +* Using welcoming and inclusive language |
| 19 | +* Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences |
| 20 | +* Gracefully accepting constructive criticism |
| 21 | +* Focusing on what is best for the community |
| 22 | +* Showing empathy towards other community members |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include: |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +* The use of unnecessary sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome |
| 27 | + sexual attention or advances |
| 28 | +* Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political |
| 29 | + attacks |
| 30 | +* Public or private harassment |
| 31 | +* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or |
| 32 | + electronic address, without explicit permission |
| 33 | +* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in |
| 34 | + a professional setting |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +## Our Responsibilities |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of |
| 39 | +acceptable behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair |
| 40 | +corrective action in response to any instances of unacceptable |
| 41 | +behavior. |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, |
| 44 | +or reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other |
| 45 | +contributions that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban |
| 46 | +temporarily or permanently any contributor for other behaviors that |
| 47 | +they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or harmful. |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +## Scope |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public |
| 52 | +spaces when an individual is representing the project or its |
| 53 | +community. Examples of representing a project or community include |
| 54 | +using an official project e-mail address, posting via an official |
| 55 | +social media account, or acting as an appointed representative at an |
| 56 | +online or offline event. Representation of a project may be further |
| 57 | +defined and clarified by project maintainers. |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +## Enforcement |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior |
| 62 | +May be reported by contacting the project team at |
| 63 | +admin@metafetish.com. All complaints will be reviewed and investigated |
| 64 | +and will result in a response that is deemed necessary and appropriate |
| 65 | +to the circumstances. The project team is obligated to maintain |
| 66 | +confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident. Further |
| 67 | +details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately. |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | +Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct |
| 70 | +in good faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as |
| 71 | +determined by other members of the project's leadership. |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +## Addendum for Metafetish Related Projects |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +While the project team seeks to welcome all contributors and |
| 76 | +participants, due to the sexual nature of projects related to the |
| 77 | +Metafetish organization, all contributors and participants should be |
| 78 | +of provable legal age. |
| 79 | + |
| 80 | +Working on projects related to the Metafetish organization may at |
| 81 | +times require sexual situations to be discussed in project forums, be |
| 82 | +they message boards, social media, chat systems, or other means not |
| 83 | +listed here. These discussions should pertain only to usage of the |
| 84 | +projects they involve, and should only include required details to |
| 85 | +express some sort of issue or feature request. If the discussion |
| 86 | +includes material that others may find objectionable for some reason, |
| 87 | +the discussions should be prepended with content warnings. |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +While usage stories about projects are appreciated, unless they |
| 90 | +express some issue with specific usage, we ask that they be kept to |
| 91 | +outside forums, where they would be appropriate. There are many |
| 92 | +sub-reddits, fetlife groups, and forum instances available for a |
| 93 | +multitude of interests where usage can be discussed. If a proper venue |
| 94 | +is not known, please contact project maintainers, as they may be able |
| 95 | +to point to one. |
| 96 | + |
| 97 | +If any contributor or project member feels that these considerations |
| 98 | +have not been met, they should contact the project maintainers at |
| 99 | +admin@metafetish.com. |
| 100 | + |
| 101 | +# Moderation |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | +These are the policies for upholding our community's standards of |
| 104 | +conduct. If you feel that a thread needs moderation, please contact |
| 105 | +the [Metafetish moderation team](mailto:admin@metafetish.com). |
| 106 | + |
| 107 | +1. Remarks that violate the standard of conduct, including hateful, |
| 108 | + hurtful, oppressive, or exclusionary remarks, are not allowed. |
| 109 | + (Cursing is allowed, but never targeting another user, and never in |
| 110 | + a hateful manner.) |
| 111 | +2. Remarks that moderators find inappropriate, whether listed in the |
| 112 | + code of conduct or not, are also not allowed. |
| 113 | +3. Moderators will first respond to such remarks with a warning. |
| 114 | +4. If the warning is unheeded, the user will be "kicked," i.e., kicked |
| 115 | + out of the communication channel to cool off. |
| 116 | +5. If the user comes back and continues to make trouble, they will be |
| 117 | + banned, i.e., indefinitely excluded. |
| 118 | +6. Moderators may choose at their discretion to un-ban the user if it |
| 119 | + was a first offense and they offer the offended party a genuine |
| 120 | + apology. |
| 121 | +7. If a moderator bans someone and you think it was unjustified, |
| 122 | + please take it up with that moderator, or with a different |
| 123 | + moderator, **in private**. Complaints about bans in-channel are not |
| 124 | + allowed. |
| 125 | +8. Moderators are held to a higher standard than other community |
| 126 | + members. If a moderator creates an inappropriate situation, they |
| 127 | + should expect less leeway than others. |
| 128 | + |
| 129 | +In this community we strive to go the extra step to look out for each |
| 130 | +other. Don't just aim to be technically unimpeachable, try to be your |
| 131 | +best self. In particular, avoid flirting with offensive or sensitive |
| 132 | +issues, particularly if they're off-topic; this all too often leads to |
| 133 | +unnecessary fights, hurt feelings, and damaged trust; worse, it can |
| 134 | +drive people away from the community entirely. |
| 135 | + |
| 136 | +And if someone takes issue with something you said or did, resist the |
| 137 | +urge to be defensive. Just stop doing what it was they complained |
| 138 | +about and apologize. Even if you feel you were misinterpreted or |
| 139 | +unfairly accused, chances are good there was something you could've |
| 140 | +communicated better — remember that it's your responsibility to make |
| 141 | +your fellow community members comfortable. Everyone wants to get along |
| 142 | +and we are all here first and foremost because we want to talk about |
| 143 | +cool technology. You will find that people will be eager to assume |
| 144 | +good intent and forgive as long as you earn their trust. |
| 145 | + |
| 146 | +The enforcement policies listed above apply to all official Metafetish |
| 147 | +venues; including all Slack channels and their related bridged IRC |
| 148 | +channels, repositories and their respective issue trackers/wikis/etc, |
| 149 | +message boards, and social media networks. For other projects adopting |
| 150 | +this Code of Conduct, please contact the maintainers of those projects |
| 151 | +for enforcement. If you wish to use this code of conduct for your own |
| 152 | +project, consider explicitly mentioning your moderation policy or |
| 153 | +making a copy with your own moderation policy so as to avoid |
| 154 | +confusion. |
