# The Mercury Code of Conduct
|
||||
|
||||
## Conduct
|
||||
|
||||
**Contact Mercury moderators:** [mercury@postlight.com](mailto:mercury@postlight.com)
|
||||
|
||||
* We are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for
|
||||
all, regardless of level of experience, gender, gender identity and expression,
|
||||
sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance, body size, race, ethnicity,
|
||||
age, religion, nationality, or other similar characteristic.
|
||||
|
||||
* Please avoid avoid using racist, sexually explicit or otherwise hostile
|
||||
nicknames that might detract from a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for
|
||||
all.
|
||||
|
||||
* Please be kind and courteous. There's no need to be mean or rude.
|
||||
|
||||
* Respect that people have differences of opinion and that every design or
|
||||
implementation choice carries a trade-off and numerous costs. There is seldom a
|
||||
right answer.
|
||||
|
||||
* Please keep unstructured critique to a minimum. If you have solid ideas you
|
||||
want to experiment with, make a fork and see how it works.
|
||||
|
||||
* We will exclude you from interaction if you insult, demean or harass anyone.
|
||||
That is not welcome behavior. We interpret the term "harassment" as including
|
||||
the definition in the [Citizen Code of Conduct](http://bit.ly/2jCvEok); if you
|
||||
have any lack of clarity about what might be included in that concept, please
|
||||
read their definition. In particular, we don't tolerate behavior that excludes
|
||||
people in socially marginalized groups.
|
||||
|
||||
* Private harassment is also unacceptable. No matter who you are, if you feel
|
||||
you have been or are being harassed or made uncomfortable by a community member,
|
||||
please contact one of the channel ops or any of the [Mercury moderation team](mailto:mercury@postlight.com)
|
||||
immediately. Whether you're a regular contributor or a newcomer, we care about
|
||||
making this community a safe place for you and we've got your back.
|
||||
|
||||
* Likewise any spamming, trolling, flaming, baiting or other attention-stealing
|
||||
behavior is not welcome.
|
||||
|
||||
## Moderation
|
||||
|
||||
These are the policies for upholding our community's standards of conduct. If you
|
||||
feel that a thread needs moderation, please contact the [Mercury moderation team](mailto:mercury@postlight.com).
|
||||
|
||||
1. Remarks that violate the Mercury standards of conduct, including hateful, hurtful,
|
||||
oppressive, or exclusionary remarks, are not allowed. (Cursing is allowed, but
|
||||
never targeting another user, and never in a hateful manner.)
|
||||
|
||||
2. Remarks that moderators find inappropriate, whether listed in the code of
|
||||
conduct or not, are also not allowed.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Moderators will first respond to such remarks with a warning.
|
||||
|
||||
4. If the warning is unheeded, the user will be "kicked," i.e., kicked out of
|
||||
the communication channel to cool off.
|
||||
|
||||
5. If the user comes back and continues to make trouble, they will be banned,
|
||||
i.e., indefinitely excluded.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Moderators may choose at their discretion to un-ban the user if it was a first
|
||||
offense and they offer the offended party a genuine apology.
|
||||
|
||||
7. If a moderator bans someone and you think it was unjustified, please take it
|
||||
up with that moderator, or with a different moderator, **in private**. Complaints
|
||||
about bans in-channel are not allowed.
|
||||
|
||||
8. Moderators are held to a higher standard than other community members. If a
|
||||
moderator creates an inappropriate situation, they should expect less leeway than
|
||||
others.
|
||||
|
||||
In the Mercury community we strive to go the extra step to look out for each other.
|
||||
Don't just aim to be technically unimpeachable, try to be your best self. In
|
||||
particular, avoid flirting with offensive or sensitive issues, particularly if
|
||||
they're off-topic; this all too often leads to unnecessary fights, hurt feelings,
|
||||
and damaged trust; worse, it can drive people away from the community entirely.
|
||||
|
||||
If someone takes issue with something you said or did, resist the urge to be
|
||||
defensive. Just stop doing what it was they complained about and apologize. Even
|
||||
if you feel you were misinterpreted or unfairly accused, chances are good there
|
||||
was something you could've communicated better — remember that it's your responsibility
|
||||
to make your fellow community members comfortable. Everyone wants to get along and we
|
||||
are all here first and foremost because we want to talk about cool technology.
|
||||
You will find that people will be eager to assume good intent and forgive as long
|
||||
as you earn their trust.
|
||||
|
||||
The enforcement policies listed above apply to all official Mercury venues; including GitHub
|
||||
repositories under postlight/mercury such as mercury-rs and other Postlight repositories
|
||||
with a \*-mercury or mercury-\* naming convention; For other projects adopting the Mercury
|
||||
Code of Conduct, please contact the maintainers of those projects for enforcement.
|
||||
If you wish to use this code of conduct for your own project, consider explicitly
|
||||
mentioning your moderation policy or making a copy with your own moderation policy
|
||||
so as to avoid confusion.
