The Rules
DevHub is built on trust, respect, and a shared love of building. These rules exist to keep it that way. Everyone is welcome here, as long as everyone feels welcome here.
Harassment, bullying, personal attacks, none of that flies here. Debate ideas all you want, but the moment it becomes about the person instead of the problem, you've crossed the line. We're a mixed crowd of skill levels, backgrounds, and cultures. Act like it.
Tech conversations get passionate, that's fine. Deliberately starting drama, baiting people into arguments, or stirring the pot for entertainment is not. If you're here to fight, you're in the wrong server.
When someone shares their work, they're putting themselves out there. Give feedback that's actually useful. Tear apart the logic, question the approach, suggest alternatives, just leave the ego out of it.
Mods and admins keep this place from descending into chaos. Follow their instructions. If you think a call was wrong, appeal it through the right channels, not by turning the server into a debate stage.
Every channel has a purpose. If it doesn't belong there, it belongs somewhere else, probably #chat. Keeping things on-topic is what makes this place actually useful instead of just loud.
Triple backticks exist for a reason. Pasting a wall of unformatted code and asking why it's broken is a fast way to get ignored. Wrap it in code block, label the language, and give people enough context to actually help you.
Repeated messages, emoji floods, copypasta, pointless reactions, nobody wants it. Same goes for pinging staff or roles when it's not necessary. If your message doesn't add anything, it probably doesn't need to be sent.
Don't promote your server, product, or service without permission from the staff team. If you'd like to share a project, use the appropriate channel and keep it relevant to the conversation and community.
Don't share anyone's personal information without their consent, not their name, location, DMs, or anything else. Doxxing is an immediate ban, no discussion.
Malware, phishing links, exploits, scams, hacking discussions, none of it. Cybersecurity curiosity is welcome in the right context; actively distributing harmful stuff is not.
Don't share pirated software, cracked tools, or copyrighted content you don't have the right to distribute. Open source thrives on trust. Don't be the one who undermines it.
Commands belong in the channels built for them. Don't spam or try to break the bots, they're here to help, not to be stress-tested.
Our staff can only moderate what they can understand. Keep public conversations in English so everyone, including the people keeping things civil, can follow along.
Explicit content of any kind is a hard no, media, links, avatars, usernames, discussions. This is a place people open from their desk, their couch, and sometimes in public. Behave accordingly.
Mic spam, earrape, and disruptive noises ruin it for everyone in the call. Be a normal person, take turns, keep the noise down, and don't make people regret joining.
Alt accounts to dodge bans, loopholes in the wording, technicalities, we've seen it all. If you're looking for a way around the rules, you've already broken the spirit of them.
Everything here sits on top of Discord's Terms of Service and Community Guidelines. If it violates those, it violates ours. No exceptions.
// Rules are subject to change. Moderators reserve the right to take action based on the spirit of these rules, not just the letter. Violations may result in warnings, mutes, kicks, or permanent bans depending on severity.
