Admin: Update to Community Guidelines

Hello everyone, with the latest everything going on in the world, I noticed our community guidelines didn't address harassment, so [personal profile] jesse_the_k and I put our heads together and added a Conduct section.

Just to be clear, I'm not aware of any instances of harassment on the comm, so this isn't a result of anyone's bad behavior. I'm happy that our community is a supportive and encouraging place, and these guidelines will help ensure that continues.

Here's the new section in its entirety:

Conduct

Anyone using [community profile] gluten_free as a platform for harassment or abuse will be banned from the community and, if appropriate, reported to Dreamwidth for violating the Terms of Service.

Harassment is unwanted attention. Repeatedly engaging someone who has said "stop" is harassment. Behavior that reinforces structures of oppression is harassment and can target:

  • gender: including gender identity and expression as well as sexual orientation
  • bodies: disability, physical appearance, body size, diet, age
  • race/ethnicity/geographic origin
  • class
  • religion

If you have a conflict with another community member and can't resolve it or don't feel comfortable doing so yourself, contact the mods for help.
