Idas.social is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone. We do not tolerate harassment of participants in any form. This CoC is adapted closely from https://friend.camp/about/more.
This code of conduct applies to all Idas.social spaces, including public channels, private channels and direct messages, both online and off. Anyone who violates this code of conduct may be sanctioned or expelled from these spaces at the discretion of the administrators.
Types of Harassment

- Jokes that resemble the above, such as "hipster racism", still count as harassment even if meant satirically or ironically.
- Microaggressions, which take the form of everyday jokes, put downs, and insults that spread humiliating feelings to people of marginalized groups
The administrators will not act on complaints regarding

Reporting
If you are being harassed by a member of Idas.social, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact an administrator (listed at the top of this document) directly.
The admins reserve the right to exclude people from Idas.social based on their past behavior, including behavior outside Idas.social spaces and behavior towards people who are not on Idas.social. We will not name harassment victims without their affirmative consent.
Consequences
Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately. If a participant engages in harassing behavior, the administrators may take any action they deem appropriate, up to and including expulsion from all Idas.social spaces and identification of the participant as a harasser to other Idas.social members or the general public.
