5 * We are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming
6 environment for all, regardless of level of experience, gender
7 identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability,
8 personal appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, age, religion,
9 nationality, or other similar characteristic.
10 * Please avoid using overtly sexual nicknames or other nicknames that
11 might detract from a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for
13 * Please be kind and courteous. There's no need to be mean or rude.
14 * Respect that some individuals and cultures consider the casual use of
15 profanity offensive and off-putting.
16 * Respect that people have differences of opinion and that every
17 design or implementation choice carries a trade-off and numerous
18 costs. There is seldom a right answer.
19 * Please keep unstructured critique to a minimum. If you have solid
20 ideas you want to experiment with, make a fork and see how it works.
21 * We will exclude you from interaction if you insult, demean or harass
22 anyone. That is not welcome behavior. We interpret the term
23 "harassment" as including the definition in the [Citizen Code of
24 Conduct](http://citizencodeofconduct.org/); if you have any lack of
25 clarity about what might be included in that concept, please read
26 their definition. In particular, we don't tolerate behavior that
27 excludes people in socially marginalized groups.
28 * Private harassment is also unacceptable. No matter who you are, if
29 you feel you have been or are being harassed or made uncomfortable
30 by a community member, please contact one of the channel ops or any
31 of the TSC members immediately with a capture (log, photo, email) of
32 the harassment if possible. Whether you're a regular contributor or
33 a newcomer, we care about making this community a safe place for you
34 and we've got your back.
35 * Likewise any spamming, trolling, flaming, baiting or other
36 attention-stealing behavior is not welcome.
37 * Avoid the use of personal pronouns in code comments or
38 documentation. There is no need to address persons when explaining
39 code (e.g. "When the developer").
42 Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
45 * Emailing [report@nodejs.org](mailto:report@nodejs.org) (this will email all TSC members)
46 * Contacting [individual TSC members](https://nodejs.org/en/foundation/tsc/#current-members-of-the-technical-steering-committee).
49 See the TSC's [moderation policy](https://github.com/nodejs/TSC/blob/master/Moderation-Policy.md) for details about moderation.
