Identification and Notification

Behavior

  • Civil Language: Keep your language polite. While profanity is not entirely forbidden, use it in moderation and only if necessary. Generally, other disallowed content includes but is not limited to intentionally misleading, defamatory, vulgar, hateful, threatening, obscene, or law-violating posts.
  • No Trolling: Do not make posts which are meant to start disruptive arguments. Intelligent and thoughtful debate is encouraged, but fighting is not tolerated.
