The following are guidelines when it comes to maintaining a "professional demeanor" within the D Community. The following is not a set of rules to be rigidly followed to the letter, but rather, general advice on how to behave in a professional manner. The goals of these guidelines are as follows:
- Foster a positive community where people feel "safe" to share their thoughts and ideas without being ridiculed
With these goals in mind, here are the guidelines that we believe will help achieve them:
- Avoid personal attacks. Avoid insulting another's intelligence, competence or mental stability.
- If something seems contentious, consider postponing it for a time and reading it back later to make sure you really want to submit it.
- Avoid posting when you are angry. Consider taking time to "cool down" to avoid saying something you may regret later.
