Company Charter
Part 0: Community Safekeeping
Sapphic Syndies is a safe space, and in the interests of maintaining that safe space, the Founder and through hir the Officers may take actions against members that violate the spirit and essence of these rules, even if they have not technically violated the text of any rules or statements.
Part 1: Inclusivity, Respect, and Understanding
Sapphic Syndies is an explicitly queer Free Company, ran by queer folks for queer folks. We are open to all like-minded individuals, but maintain a strong sapphic focus.This means we are inclusive and respectful of the great many shades and flavors of queerness out there. TERFs, truscum, and other exclusionist philosophies and ideologies are not welcome in Sapphic Syndies. Policing someone’s identity or casting doubt on the validity of their sexuality is unacceptable.There will be times when there is confusion or misunderstandings in discussing these personal aspects; such times should be handled cordially, with anyone asking for clarification or further information keeping in mind that the onus is on them to do so in a respectful fashion.
Part 2: Positivity, Serious Topics, and Escapism
Life is unavoidably difficult at times, especially for queer folks. This game, and the FC by extension, is a way to escape that difficulty and get enjoyment and at times catharsis. Consequently, the FC is not an appropriate place to discuss particularly serious or heavy topics at length. This is not a blanket prohibition on anything that is “negative” or “politically charged” but a general statement that there are social spaces better suited for more in depth discussions of that nature.The subpart to this is that if you are discussing a topic known to be a triggering subject (i.e. severe violence, sexual assault, etc), it should be spoiler tagged and preferably threaded.
Part 3: Internet Decorum
This is not an exhaustive list of dos and do nots but most folks who join this FC will be somewhat familiar with general internet etiquette: the common law of the internet still applies here. Don’t flame folks, don’t go fishing for arguments, approach conversations with a desire to contribute, not to start shit. Put posts in categories appropriate for them, keep NSFW content to the NSFW categories. If you ever have a question or need clarification on something, please ask the officers, any of whom will be glad to answer or help you.A subset of this rule is that not everyone is going be everyone else’s friend. We want a warm and welcoming community, but any group of any size is going have disagreements or folks who simply don’t like each other. Not liking someone else is not a rules violation, fishing for arguments is. Don’t pick fights intentionally, and use common sense to gauge when simply not interacting is the better option.
Part 4: Representing the FC
While playing in FFXIV or any other game that SapSy members partake in under the label, you are in some capacity representing the entire FC. If you’re out and about repeating TERF talking points, it isn’t good for you and it isn’t good for the FC, and if we find out it will be handled just the same as if it was said within FC communications.
Part 5: Discipline
Officers of the FC may informally or formally warn members of conduct violations and, in severe or repeat infractions, suspend a member’s participation in the FC for a length of time. Expulsion may be considered in grievous infractions or several repeat infractions with no sign of change.
