GRIMM operates one behavioural standard and it fits on a page. Longer documents do not produce better conduct, they produce documents nobody reads and a moderation team that quotes clause 14.3 at people.

The standard

  1. 01Do not be a bigot. There is no interesting edge case here.
  2. 02Do not harass anyone, in channel or out of it.
  3. 03Do not bring interpersonal conflict from elsewhere into GRIMM spaces.
  4. 04Do not cheat, exploit, or otherwise make other people's time worthless.
  5. 05If you are asked to stop something, stop it first and argue about it afterwards.

How this is enforced

Directly and quietly. Enforcement is communicated to the people involved. It is not announced, it is not posted publicly, and it is not put to a community vote. Public moderation theatre is entertaining for spectators and corrosive for everyone else.
