Rules

We have a small but strict set of rules on our server. Please read over them and take them on board - if you don't understand anything or need some clarification, feel free to ask any staff member!

  1. Be polite, and do not spam
  2. Follow the Discord community guidelines
  3. Be patient both with users asking questions, and the users answering them
  4. Listen to and respect the staff members - we're here to help, but we're all human beings
  5. All discussion should be kept within the relevant channels for the subject.
    • General Python help and support requests go to one of the three help channels - pick the one that is the quietest at the time.
    • The topical channels can be used for help and support requests, but general discussion about the subjects covered by them should go there also.
    • If you're working with one of the bots, we ask you to specifically do that in #bot-commands, to keep the other channels clear of bot output.
    • If you're working on a Python project or something directly related to our server, feel free to post a link to it in #show-your-projects. We prefer links to source code over websites, but we'll also accept screenshots and videos if you're not yet ready to release the code.
      • If you or someone else posts a project to #show-your-projects, you may discuss it in #show-your-projects-discussion. #show-your-projects is intended to be a listing channel, and any discussion there is removed regularly.
      • Please note, we do not allow postings for communities (such as forums or other Discord servers) or commercial projects.
  6. This is an English-speaking server. Please speak English to the best of your ability. Google translate is fine if you're not sure.
  7. Keep all discussions SFW - No ecchi or NSFW media. If you wouldn't want the entire world to know about your interest in it, it doesn't belong on this server.
  8. We do not allow advertisements for communities or commercial projects - Contact us directly if you want to discuss a partnership!

Infractions

We have a generally no-nonsense policy when it comes to our rules. If you notice someone breaking them, feel free to mention or DM a staff member and we'll try to deal with it as soon as possible.

The possible actions we take based on infractions can include the following:

  • A public verbal/textual warning
  • A short temporary mute
  • A long temporary mute
  • A kick from the server
  • A temporary ban from the server
  • A permanent ban from the server

While we do discuss more serious matters internally before handing out a punishment, simpler infractions are dealt with directly by individual staffers and the punishment they hand out is left to their own decision-making.
