MODERATORS
 

Hi all! As promised, here is the proposed text of the newest version of the rules. The staff has gone through like eight drafts and literally thousands and thousands of matrix posts to get here, so please be kind. You can see @limeey's comment on the transparency post if you want more insight into how this sausage was made.

We are opening these rules to commentary from the community before they go into effect. To be clear, this isn't a vote, but we will take all community feedback into account and answer whatever questions we can before finalizing anything.

Please keep in mind that we are not Reddit, we do not have Reddit's resources, and safety and consent are our priorities.

I'll post the draft in two parts in two comments: The new sidebar, and the FAQ/clarifications page.

Respect and Consent: Treat all members with respect and obtain consent when sharing explicit content involving others.

Does this mean that we are not allowed to post other OC's content here without their knowledge/consent? what about crossposting a post that an OC has made in a community to other communities within this instance, what about to places outside of this instance?

What if the person/people involved in the post are not members here of this lemmy instance, but elsewhere in fediverse or websites elsewhere - does it make it ok to post their OC then without consent simply because they are not "members"?

What about unattributed photos/images grabbed off the web. How do we get consent?

[Addition] Are moderators primarily responsible for enforcing this rule and banning/removing content posts? Can moderators be reported/removed from comms for NOT enforcing these rules for posters and by allowing posters to ignore this rule and allow such content in their comms?

Treat all members with respect and obtain consent when sharing explicit content involving others.

Does that mean bot posts are finally gone?

Minor wording change suggestion:

No Rules Lawyering: Admin/Moderator decisions are final and arguing with them can result in a suspension or ban of your account and removal of your content.
