Discord
- We need a rigid and enforceable set of rules for our Discord, unfortunately. These rules will be discretionary, and ultimately up to the exec as to enforcement and level of enforcement. The exec's words are final in the enforcement of the rules.
- Look into making a report channel where everyone can post but nobody can see.
- What permissions should ex-exec have? Kicking is probably a good idea, banning probably not. Also they should have muting.
- The rules are as follows:
This Discord is intended as a welcoming environment for everyone in the society, and those interested in the society. As such, we ask that you abide by the following rules:
1. Please do not spam the Discord, or shitpost excessively. This includes "ping-spamming" - excessively tagging other users without their consent. Please only tag groups of users (@Exec) when it's necessary.
2. Please do not post derogatory or defamatory remarks that are racist, sexist, homophobic, or transphobic.
3. Please do not post NSFW/NSFL content.
4. Our Discord is not a marketplace. Please refrain from unsolicited advertisement, and please do not attempt to sell things in our Discord.
5. Please do not post direct links to pirated content, or anything illegal within a reasonable interpretation of UK law. Please do not dox users.
6. Please make a reasonable effort to keep discussion relevant to the channel that it is taking place in.
The enforcement of these rules is entirely at the discretion of the exec team, and their decision is final. If an exec asks you to stop doing something, please do.
