Code of Conduct
Ask. Diagnose. Repair. Verify. Share—with care for the people doing the work.
Be precise and kind
Critique code and reasoning—not the person. Welcome beginners, ask clarifying questions in good faith, and avoid ridicule, harassment, threats, or discriminatory language.
Respect privacy and ownership
Do not expose another person’s identity, data, credentials, private repository, customer records, or copyrighted code. Give attribution and follow the source license.
Do not enable harm
Malware, credential theft, evasion, destructive instructions, unauthorized access, and deliberately dangerous code are prohibited. Legitimate defensive discussions must be scoped and handled safely.
Keep trust labels meaningful
Do not claim to be an expert, company representative, moderator, or Genesis system account unless that status was actually verified. Payment never buys trust rank.
Work with moderation
Moderators may redact exposed secrets, move or lock content, merge duplicates, quarantine dangerous material, or suspend accounts. Sensitive actions are recorded. Affected members may use the appeal process when available.
Report privately
Use the report control for spam, abuse, exposed secrets, personal data, plagiarism, malicious code, or urgent safety issues. Do not start a public pile-on.
