Welcome to the Obol Collective Discussion Forum! Our goal is to create a supportive environment for thoughtful discussion and collaboration around the Obol Collective. Please respect the following rules to help foster a positive and constructive forum.
1. Engage Constructively
- Respectful Dialogue: Treat everyone with respect, even when opinions differ. Critique ideas, not individuals, and avoid personal attacks, offensive language, or harassment.
- Contribute Thoughtfully: Strive to improve discussions. Ensure your contributions add value and help move the conversation forward.
2. Stay Aligned with Our Values
- Integrity and Transparency: Be honest in your interactions and disclose any conflicts of interest.
- Commitment to the Vision: Keep Obol’s vision in mind when participating—focus on decentralized and sustainable ecosystem growth.
3. Maintain Civility and Professionalism
- No Harassment or Offensive Behavior: Refrain from using abusive, hateful, or obscene language. Discrimination, bullying, and privacy violations will not be tolerated.
- Constructive Disagreement: It’s okay to disagree—just do it constructively. Provide well-reasoned arguments rather than dismissive or aggressive responses. Maintain civility in all interactions and focus on constructive feedback.
- Accountability: Take responsibility for your behavior. If you’re uncertain whether your post is appropriate, think about how it might be perceived publicly. Violations may lead to moderation actions such as warnings, post removal, or account suspension.
4. Use Community Tools Wisely
- Flag Issues, Don’t Engage Negatively: If you see inappropriate behavior, flag it. Moderators are here to facilitate, but the community shares responsibility in maintaining a healthy environment. Repeated violations may be subject to enforcement actions such as warning, suspension or banning.
- Respect Forum Structure: Post in the correct categories, avoid cross-posting, and keep discussions on-topic. Help maintain a tidy space so we can all focus on meaningful conversations.
5. Our Community Vision
The Obol Forum is a place for collaboration and growth. Engage actively and professionally, uphold the core principles of integrity, transparency, and respect, and help us foster a positive environment for decentralized innovation. Together, we can leave our community better than we found it.
