Community Guidelines

Community rules and guidelines

These rules exist to keep the server welcoming, safe, professional, and enjoyable for everyone. By participating in this server, you agree to follow these rules, Discord’s Terms of Service, and Resonite’s Terms of Service. Failure to comply may result in warnings, mutes, kicks, or bans at staff discretion.

1. Platform & External Policies

• Follow Discord’s Terms of Service and Community Guidelines at all times.

• If an action violates Discord or Resonite rules, it is also a violation here, even if not explicitly listed below.

2. Respectful Conduct

• Be kind, respectful, and civil to all members.

• No harassment, bullying, hate speech, slurs, threats, or personal attacks.

• Do not target individuals or groups based on protected characteristics or personal traits.

3. No Drama & Conflict Handling

• Do not create or escalate drama, callouts, or public arguments.

• If you have an issue with another member, contact @Staff - Moderator privately.

• Do not rally others, dogpile, or attempt to publicly shame another user.

• Staff decisions should not be argued publicly; use private channels or DMs for appeals.

4. Politics & Sensitive Topics

12. Investigations & Moderation Process

• Staff may investigate reports, claims, or behavior as necessary.

• Members may be asked to provide context or evidence.

• Attempting to interfere with, evade, or undermine an investigation is a violation.

13. Appeals & Feedback

• If you believe a moderation action was taken in error, contact staff privately.

• Constructive feedback is welcome; hostile or disruptive appeals are not.

14. Final Notes
