Pixie Girl Wiki:Discord Policy

*All rules listed on the General Regulations page also apply to the Discord Policy.*

**General Guidelines**

* **Do not enforce the rules on the Discord.** Issues can be dealt with users with chat moderation rights or administrative rights. Doing this without these rights as a regular user is referred to as "minimodding".
	+ If there are no moderators or administrators available on Discord at the time and you witness a user breaking any rule, you may leave a message on any discord moderator or administrator's message wall concerning the situation and they will take action when necessary.
	+ Please make sure to provide evidence of the user breaking the rule, preferably through a screen capture picture. Please do not take the issue into your own hands as it only complicates the situation.
* When sending a message primarily using caps lock, please keep it short. Using excessive caps lock in a message could be seen as spam and can result in a kick.
* Messages that are longer than 3 line-breaks must be warned for prior to sending, but this rule can be loosened up if chat is not active.
* Discord tags such as bold text and italic text are fine to use but must be kept short and used in moderation. Abuse of this feature will result in a warning followed by a kick.
* Private messages are a private zone where rules do not apply. However, this does not allow any non-consensual harassment of any kind to take place. Should this happen, please provide a moderator or administrator with evidence of this happening to you so the right approach can be taken.
* Please do not link any websites that could be dangerous, such as those containing malware.
	+ **Should you link to jump-scares, it will result in an immediate ban.**
* If an admin or mod feels like a user is purposefully trying to disrupt the chat, troll or purposefully upset other users, they may issue a warning followed by a kick and eventually a ban if it continues.
* While it is discouraged, you are permitted to discuss controversial topics such as religion, politics, etc. When discussing controversial topics, be civil. People have different opinions and respect them. If a user is uncomfortable or a staff member requests that you do move on, you may take it to PM.
	+ If the topic continues after staff request or a warning, a kick may be issued.

**Profanity**

* **Light swear words (such as hell, damn, crap) are allowed when not directed at another user and not allowed to be used excessively.** Usage of stronger swear words and excessive use of light swear words **will result in a kick or a ban.**
	+ Swear abbreviations (such as wt\*, st\*u, lm\*ao, etc), certain swear substitutes, and abbreviations that can be translated into cuss words is treated as though the swear had been said.

**Advertising**

* **Linking to other wiki chats or discord servers are not allowed in the Zag Discord.**
* Advertising to view your ZAG Animation content on other websites is permitted. Advertising non-ZAG Animation content on other websites will result in a warning or a kick at most.

**NSFW Content**

* **NSFW (not safe for work, or things you don’t want to be seen looking at in school or work) is not permitted to be linked to nor discussed.** If you are unsure what is NSFW and what is not, contact a staff member using a private message on Discord.
	+ However, innuendos and jokes are allowed in moderation.
