# Dolphin Emulator Code of Conduct
Like many Open Source projects and the greater FLOSS community, Dolphin is a
collaborative open source community comprised of a diverse group of
contributors and users from around the globe. We find the contributions,
collaborations, and mentorships within our community to be the essential
lifeblood of our project and appreciate the efforts of those who participate to
nurture and grow those, and all other aspects of our community.
However, when a large and sufficiently diverse group of people work together,
there are often cultural, communication, and compatibility issues. In order to
minimize conflict, and provide a framework for resolution, we have a brief code
of conduct that we ask all participants in the Dolphin community adhere to.
These rules should apply to everyone, regardless of their status within the
community, and anyone can serve to remind, or ask the project leads to help
resolve issues.
No list is ever exhaustive, so we encourage members of the Dolphin community to
adhere to the spirit, rather than the letter, of this code, as that is how it
will be enforced. Places where this code may be particularly applicable are
GitHub issues and pull requests, bug tracker comments, IRC, Discord, forums,
Twitter discussions broadly directed at or between members of the community,
and other direct interactions within the community. Any violations, especially
continued or flagrant offenses, may affect an individuals (or organizations)
ability to participate within the Dolphin community.
If you feel that someone is in violation of the code of conduct, whether in
letter or in spirit, we request that you email as detailed a description as
possible of the offense and offending party/parties to
[conduct@dolphin-emu.org](mailto:conduct@dolphin-emu.org). If you have
questions, concerns, or any other inquiries please feel free to contact the
project leads.
## Rules
1. **Be friendly and patient.** We were all new or suffered from a lack of
knowledge at one point in time. Please try to remember what it felt like to
be on that end, and treat people accordingly.
2. **Be welcoming.** We strive to be a community that welcomes and supports
people of all backgrounds and identities. This includes, but is not limited
to members of any race, ethnicity, culture, national origin, colour,
immigration status, social and economic class, educational level, sex,
sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, age, size, family
status, political belief, religion, and mental and physical ability.
3. **Be helpful.** By helping others to learn our entire ecosystem is enriched.
We encourage members of the Dolphin community to mentor each other and help
to raise the general level of knowledge in the community whenever possible.
4. **Be considerate.** Your work will be used by other people, and you in turn
will depend on the work of others. Any decision you take will affect users
and colleagues, and you should take those consequences into account when
making decisions. Remember that were a world-wide community, so you might
not be communicating in someone elses primary language.
5. **Be respectful.** Not all of us will agree all the time, but disagreement
is no excuse for poor behavior and poor manners. We might all experience
some frustration now and then, but we cannot allow that frustration to turn
into a personal attack. Its important to remember that a community where
people feel uncomfortable or threatened is not a productive one. Members of
the Dolphin community should be respectful when dealing with other members
as well as with people outside the Dolphin community.
6. **Be careful in the words that you choose.** We are a community of
professionals, and we conduct ourselves professionally. Be kind to others.
Do not insult or put down other participants. Harassment and other
exclusionary behavior arent acceptable. This includes, but is not limited
to:
- Violent threats or language directed against another person.
- Discriminatory jokes and language.
- Posting sexually explicit or violent material.
- Posting (or threatening to post) other peoples personally identifying
information (“doxing”), regardless of whether it is publicly available.
- Personal insults, especially those using racist, sexist, or otherwise
discriminatory terms.
- Deliberately referring to others by names or pronouns counter to their
identity.
- Unwelcome sexual attention.
- Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior.
- Repeated harassment of others. In general, if someone asks you to stop,
then stop.
7. **When we disagree, try to understand why.** Disagreements, both social and
technical, happen all the time and Dolphin is no exception. It is important
that we resolve disagreements and differing views constructively. Remember
that were different. The strength of Dolphin comes from its varied
community, people from a wide range of backgrounds. Different people have
different perspectives on issues. Being unable to understand why someone
holds a viewpoint doesnt mean that theyre wrong. Dont forget that it is
human to err and blaming each other doesnt get us anywhere. Instead, focus
on helping to resolve issues and learning from mistakes.
## Consequences
Except in flagrant or otherwise egregious cases, the first infraction will
result in a verbal warning. Everyone slips up or acts out of frustration at
times, we just ask that you work to not repeat the behavior. Continued
infractions will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis, and could lead to
actions including:
- Temporary suspension from one or all avenues of Dolphin community
participation. This includes, but is not limited to, IRC, Discord, GitHub,
Redmine, and the Dolphin Forums.
- Permanent suspension from participating in the Dolphin community.
Moderators should generally assume good intent when evaluating infractions, but
should also keep in mind that good intent does not override the Code of Conduct
rules.
