Code of Conduct for Official Factions

1. Preamble

This Code of Conduct aims at outlining ways in which Official Factions can contribute positively towards creating a healthy environment and fun gameplay. Set standards should be as realistic and unambiguous/subjective as possible, so that everyone can agree they are worth striving for. It may also be worth it to differentiate between “minimum requirement” and “desirable but not obligatory”, to prevent bigotry and finger pointing while still giving some advice for those who want to contribute more than the minimum required.


2. Official Faction Leaders

2.1 Minimum Requirements

- Community rules apply in the Official Faction Leader (OFL) discord channel. No insulting, trolling, abusing, or hassling.

- No spamming or NSFW (Not Safe For Work) content in OFL discord.

- Work to improve your faction, but don’t try to make/keep it “better than others” by blocking the legitimate interests of other factions, independent players, or individual players.

- You receive OFL rights because you are trusted to used them responsibly for the organization of gameplay for the benefit of everyone. They are not given solely to benefit yourself or your faction, or as tools for blackmail, revenge, or bribery for your personal benefit.

- You are required to be diplomatic and not tribalistic when dealing with other official faction leaders and developers.

Respect your IRP enemies right for fun gameplay. That doesn’t mean you have to hand them victories, or that you have the right to be handed victories.
You are expected to act diplomatically towards people outside your faction, mediate in case of conflict, and not stoke the flames.


3. Official Faction members

Don’t see your faction’s officials status as a license for poor behavior towards “non official players”. There is a difference between IRP elitism that can make sense in the discovery universe, and OORPly harming other people’s game experience.
