Newgon Organization has a set of minimum moderation standards for social (chat/forum) initiatives it funds or helps fund.

This does not extend to initiatives without funding started by members or ex members, nor does it apply to their behavior on sites not directly funded by us. This does not extend to Fediverse instances such as childlove.space, for example, but does extend to instances funded by us (for instance on a Yesmap.net domain).

  • No "NSFW", and no sharing of suggestive minors or illegal material in any jurisdiction covered by our userbase. This means no lolicon or AI porn for example. Hornyposting + sexual roleplay is not allowed on an activist server, and other servers exist for this.
  • Do not admit to or seek to conduct/incite illegal activities in any jurisdiction. Depending on the context, you may be incriminating us, and forcing us to act against you. This is generally considered suspicious behavior in any event, and undermines the purpose of our involvement in social initiatives.
  • No malicious conduct directed against the person. This is to include personalized baiting/slurs/insults and sharing of personal information not available to the public.
  • We do not believe that unironic ethnonationalism is a good look for our movement, and therefore remove accounts that engage in it. Debate around these boundaries should be fully argued and sourced - not qualified with baseless assertions. Please try to be clear with respect to your use of irony on these sensitive topics.
  • When considering moderating a comment, we will generally need to establish that a person made comments unnecessary for that individual. This involves a judgment call as to that person's true beliefs, vs what they have stated.
  • Disruption, particularly in the form of weaponized offense-taking will not be tolerated, and will result in warnings and bans. Users must report any violations to an admin, moderator, or in the relevant meta room/forum and not bring it up in-thread, thus causing drama.
