Code of Conduct
|
|||
|
|
===============
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Preamble
|
|||
|
|
--------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
OBS is made up of many people from all over the world, with different
|
|||
|
|
backgrounds and experiences that they bring to the project. In order to
|
|||
|
|
continue letting the community grow, feel safe, and to encourage good
|
|||
|
|
communication, we are adopting the following Code of Conduct. This
|
|||
|
|
document—or any subsequent version—will be enforced from July 31st, 2021
|
|||
|
|
onwards.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Scope
|
|||
|
|
-----
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
This Code of Conduct applies to anyone who contributes—or wishes to
|
|||
|
|
contribute—to the project directly, is taking part in community
|
|||
|
|
discussion in official channels, or are in a position where they’ll be
|
|||
|
|
seen as a representative of the project, regardless of whether they
|
|||
|
|
intend to speak for the project or not.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
A person is considered to be representing the project if they’re
|
|||
|
|
speaking as a code contributor, support volunteer, member involved with
|
|||
|
|
the project, or if they have some kind of visible role in an official
|
|||
|
|
channel for OBS. This does not include roles for Sponsors or Patrons.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Official channels for OBS include the Discord server, the forum, any
|
|||
|
|
GitHub repositories within the OBS Project organization, any social
|
|||
|
|
media accounts for OBS Project, any public events where OBS Project has
|
|||
|
|
a presence, any presentations given on behalf of OBS Project, or any
|
|||
|
|
other situation that can be reasonably interpreted as being hosted,
|
|||
|
|
attended or communicated by the OBS Project.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
This Code of Conduct is subject to change, and any changes will have a 2
|
|||
|
|
week notice period before taking immediate effect. Changes will not be
|
|||
|
|
enforced retroactively unless it directly affects the security, safety
|
|||
|
|
or well-being of another individual, or other exceptional circumstances.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Guidelines
|
|||
|
|
----------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
General
|
|||
|
|
~~~~~~~
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- We are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming
|
|||
|
|
environment for all, regardless of level of experience, gender
|
|||
|
|
identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, personal
|
|||
|
|
appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, age, religion, nationality,
|
|||
|
|
or other similar characteristic.
|
|||
|
|
- Please avoid using overtly sexual aliases or other nicknames that
|
|||
|
|
might detract from a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for
|
|||
|
|
all.
|
|||
|
|
- Please be kind and courteous. There’s no need to be mean or rude.
|
|||
|
|
- Respect that people will have differences of opinion.
|
|||
|
|
- We will exclude you from interaction if you insult, demean or harass
|
|||
|
|
anyone. That is not welcome behavior. The definition of harassment is
|
|||
|
|
provided in the section on Unacceptable Behavior. In particular, we
|
|||
|
|
don’t tolerate behavior that excludes people in socially marginalized
|
|||
|
|
groups. This includes private harassment.
|
|||
|
|
- Likewise any spamming, trolling, flaming, baiting or other
|
|||
|
|
attention-stealing behavior is not welcome.
|
|||
|
|
- Being a recognized Contributor, Support Volunteer, Sponsor or Patron
|
|||
|
|
does not give you special right to avoid following these guidelines
|
|||
|
|
when taking part in community discussions.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Code Contributors
|
|||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Respect that every design or implementation choice carries a
|
|||
|
|
trade-off and numerous costs. There is seldom a right answer.
|
|||
|
|
- Please keep unstructured critique to a minimum. If you have solid
|
|||
|
|
ideas you want to experiment with, make a fork and see how it works.
|
|||
|
|
- Do not post negative or inflammatory comments on code submissions. If
|
|||
|
|
you believe that a code submission has problems, provide constructive
|
|||
|
|
or actionable feedback, or a reason for why a submission is being
|
|||
|
|
rejected. Where it is possible, provide explanations that someone can
|
|||
|
|
use to fix things.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Support Volunteers
|
|||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- There are many users of differing skill levels or abilities. This is
|
|||
|
|
never a reason to refuse support for someone, as long as it’s within
|
|||
|
|
the scope of OBS support, and the user is willing to cooperate.
|
|||
|
|
- Just because something seems obvious to you, doesn’t mean it’s
|
|||
|
|
actually obvious. If someone is having difficulty understanding how
|
|||
|
|
to use OBS, it should never be treated as their fault.
|
|||
|
|
- Bad advice is often worse than no advice. If you don’t know how to
|
|||
|
|
address someone’s issue, then get ahold of someone who’ll be able to
|
|||
|
|
provide them help. We can only expect so much patience from a user
|
|||
|
|
asking for support, and helping without understanding the problem
|
|||
|
|
only results in using up that patience.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Unacceptable Behavior
|
|||
|
|
---------------------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The following behaviors are considered harassment and are unacceptable
|
|||
|
|
within our community:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Violence, threats of violence or violent language directed against
|
|||
|
|
another person.
|
|||
|
|
- Sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic, ableist or otherwise
|
|||
|
|
discriminatory jokes and language.
|
|||
|
|
- Posting or displaying sexually explicit or violent material.
|
|||
|
|
- Posting or threatening to post other people’s personally identifying
|
|||
|
|
information ("doxing").
|
|||
|
|
- Personal insults.
|
|||
|
|
- Unwelcome sexual attention. This includes, sexualized comments or
|
|||
|
|
jokes, and unwelcome sexual advances.
|
|||
|
|
- Deliberate intimidation, stalking or following.
|
|||
|
|
- Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Enforcement
|
|||
|
|
-----------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Instances of unacceptable behavior may be reported by contacting an
|
|||
|
|
enforcement team member at one of the following addresses:
|
|||
|
|
coc@obsproject.com. All complaints will be reviewed and investigated,
|
|||
|
|
and will result in a response that is deemed necessary and appropriate
|
|||
|
|
to the circumstances. The project team is obligated to maintain
|
|||
|
|
confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident. Further
|
|||
|
|
details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
In other cases where behavior is against the general guidelines set out
|
|||
|
|
in this Code of Conduct, this may be brought up with a moderator through
|
|||
|
|
either a Discord DM, or through an email to an enforcement member. In
|
|||
|
|
these cases, it is always assumed in the first instance that a person
|
|||
|
|
means well, and action will only be taken in the case of repeated
|
|||
|
|
failure to follow the guidelines.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||

|
