# Community Principles

## Respect Everyone

We does not tolerate bullying, discrimination, or harassment of any kind within or outside of the Eligius community. Our main objective is to create an inviting and engaging place for individuals to come and enjoy their time here without feeling bullied, harassed or degraded. This will be heavily enforced. Subtle comments within in-character roleplay are okay but anything that refers to the character's "out of character" life or persona is not tolerated.

## Respect the Staff Team

We do not tolerate any abuse towards staff members including arguments and slander. If you have been given a direction / sanction by a staff member, it is asked that you are not to argue with decision-making. If you disagree with the action enforced against yourself, please create a ticket with all relevant information so it can be reviewed. Arguing with the staff member at the time will just make the situation worse. Please respect the staff and their time.

## Reporting Player Misconduct

If you believe a player has broken a rule there are only two correct ways to report this. First, you can use /ids to collect the player's id in game followed by a /report. The other method to make a report is via a ticket in discord. Failure to use either of these systems correctly, such as by DM'ing staff will be classed as a rule breach and will result in probable staff actioning. DO NOT go into general chat talking about what you need help with. Make a ticket and staff will assist you

## Reporting Staff Misconduct

Staff are not exempt from the rules. If you believe a staff member has misused their privileges, made a mistake or otherwise not lived up to the principles of our community there is only one correct method, which is to create an Admin ticket. Once requested it will be moved to admin only and will be reviewed by an administrator.
