| 1) Be respectful. The people in the channel have no obligation to help you and they don't receive any form of compensation for doing so | |
| 2) Have patience. You might understand exactly what the problem is, but other people will have to ask (basic) questions first | |
| 3) Be specific. What is the issue that you're having, what is the behaviour that you want to happen. Have a link ready so that people can visit the page with the problem, or make a test case on http://liveweave.com | |
| 4) For chatting and offtopic questions, go to #web-social | |
| 4.1) Chatting and off-topic discussion is fine as long as its not disrupting on-topic discussion. If someone asks you to move to #web-social, please do. | |
| 5) There is no "best" way of doing things | |
| 6) There is no "best" framework or cms | |
| 7) Saying something sucks or is stupid will only cause flamewars | |
| 8) The exception to 7 is GoDaddy. GoDaddy sucks. | |
| 9) If you're trying to help someone and they won't or can't do it your way, stop trying to convince them. It generally doesn't end well | |
| 10) Don't discuss channel bans or quiets. If you have a complaint about the way an op acted, bring it up in #web-social. | |
| 11) We are here to help people of all skill levels. Being condescending or demeaning towards people will not be tolerated. | |
| 12) Impersonating OPs is the quickest way to get the ban-hammer |
Is #web-social the best place to discuss op decisions? I feel #web-ops would be more appropriate.
It would be nice if #web's topic would be changed to something like the following to include other channels for specific questions. I added SVG for SVG specific questions and another site for code samples.
https://hashweb.org | General Web Development talk | HTML/CSS/SVG/JS problem? Go to #html, #css, #svg, or ##javascript or create a testcase on https://jsfiddle.net, https://codepen.io, or https://jsbin.com | #web-social for social chat | Channel Rules https://git.io/v20lo | Use !ops to alert channel ops
#httpd could be added for Apache related questions. #firefox has a channel. #google has a list of channels for its web products.
Also, shouldn't these rules be on the hashweb.org page?
This is just my opinion.
