Community Standards

Things We Work For

How That Looks in Action

Things We Work Against

  • Building community by sharing good games with nice people.
  • Consent in all things. Everyone has the right to opt out of things that they do not want to be a part of. Safety tools in games are important.
  • We are more important than any story we tell together, if something comes up, in game or out of game, we as people are more important than the game.
  • The rights and respect of physical and mental ability as well as racial, cultural, national, gender, and sexual backgrounds.
  • Standing in solidarity with members of our community, and correcting the mistakes we make.

Things We Work Against

How That Looks in Action

Things We Work Against

  • Trolling, purposeful disrespect, harmful language.
  • Placing the emotional labor of self-bettering on the marginalized.
  • Fascism, racism, transantagonism, sexism, homophobia, aphobia, purposeful misgendering, ableism, and the oppression of all marginalized peoples.

How That Looks in Action

  • Take care of one another at the table. Check in with other people when you think a move you are making might upset someone.
  • Use safety tools! Say “Thank you!” to other people when they use safety tools. 
  • Be alert for harmful language at your table. NEVER leave it up to marginalized people at the table to correct language. 
  • Work consent into your language. Say things like, “I think what happens is…” or “What do you think about if my character…” Working together we tell more incredible stories than we tell alone.
  • Ask for help! If you are confused or need something to enjoy the game, ask for it. People are more important than games.
