 | |
| 
 | |
| Rules of channel X in network Y.<br/>The channels which use these rules
 | |
| should link to this page in ENTRYMSG (or other automatic msg by bot) or
 | |
| topic. Channel URL is not so good as many clients hide it somewhere (which
 | |
| actually happens with everything else than topic)
 | |
| 
 | |
| _[More about my bot (which might or might not be on this channel) here.](bot.html)_
 | |
| 
 | |
| - **Use common sense.**
 | |
| - Be nice, no discrimination
 | |
|   - Mind your language, not everyone is e.g. your brother ("bro"), don't
 | |
|     swear or use slurs.
 | |
|   - In case you aren't sure which pronouns to use about someone else,
 | |
|     please use [singular they](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singular_they)
 | |
|   - Clearly tell when links aren't safe for everyone by prefixing them
 | |
|     with `[NSFW]` or similar.
 | |
|   - Respect boundaries, don't PM people without asking first.
 | |
|     - _You may PM ops or ops may PM you if it's required for solving
 | |
|       potential channel issue peacefully._
 | |
| - Don't log the channel publicly.
 | |
| - Don't bring bots to the channel without asking ops first.
 | |
| 
 | |
| _These rules also affect (h)ops (and higher), if you see them breaking
 | |
| these rules, please do say it._
 | |
| 
 | |
| - If you need help from channel op...
 | |
|   - ping or PM them (but keep in mind they might be blocking all PMs)
 | |
|   - if the network supports it and you have correct flags (voice?),
 | |
|     `/msg memoserv sendops #channel <the issue>`
 | |
|   - `!ops` might work if the ops are highlighting on it or there is bot
 | |
|     handling it, but it's not as recommended as the other ways.
 | |
|   - if there are no ops present, try contacting the network operators,
 | |
|     they should have flags to help.
