IIWC 2022 - Discussion group Rules

These rules are in place for our discussion group and have to be followed. As they are automatically posted into the discussion group, comments on channel posts also fall under these rules, even if the person posting them is not part of the discussion group.

Violating these rules can result in either a warn, a mute or a ban from the group at the moderators discretion.

• Be kind

Also knows as Wheaton’s Law. We are all humans who love Ingress and who make mistakes. Don't be a jerk.

• Include everyone

Don't do anything that might make someone feel like they don't belong. This includes but is not limited to generalizations of types of people, hate speech, or discriminatory language based on gender, religion, ethnicity or sex. This also includes attacking others based on their faction.

• Keep the group in English

This group has members from all over the world, and the likelihood of everyone speaking your native language is very small. Only post messages in English.

• Listen to the moderation team

We may at times take action that don't sit right with you. Nevertheless, we're trying to make our group a fun place to hang out in, so the word of the moderators is law, even if these don't make sense to you. Remember that these rules exist not only to the letter, but in spirit. Follow the instructions of mods, and don't argue with them about it.

• Follow Niantic TOS and Player Guidelines

This includes talking about cheating methods (Spoofing, multi-accounting and manipulation of Adventure Sync) as well as calling out other agents for participating in such activities. Should you suspect someone to be cheating, bring your concerns to one of the moderators.

• Don't spam

This includes spamming messages, pictures, GIFs etc., but also includes posting advertisements. Of course, this includes spam bots as well.
