Feedback
Respect the writer and pressure the work.
Critique the page in front of you. Do not attack the writer, mock the subject, or turn feedback into performance.
Code of Conduct
Keep the room brave, useful, and welcoming.
The goal is not to make every room soft. The goal is to make every room trustworthy enough for real work. Honesty is welcome. Cruelty is not craft.
Specificity
Be useful.
Name what works, where you got lost, what the piece seems to want, and what revision could sharpen.
Room
Make space.
Do not dominate workshops, dismiss genres, or treat taste as law. Curiosity keeps the room alive.
Ownership
Do not steal work.
Member drafts, ideas, critique notes, and private messages stay with their writers.
Boundaries
Respect private contact.
Use the site messaging/contact request system. Do not expose private emails or pressure members outside the tools.
Safety
Report problems early.
The Safety Desk exists so moderators can investigate issues before they rot the room.
