Why rules matter
Rules are a contract nanga yu members. They set expectations, give moderators grounds to act nanga reduce conflicts. Without them, any ban looks arbitrary.
What they should be
- Short — 5–10 points people will actually read.
- Specific — "no ads without approval", not "be nice".
- Nanga consequences — warning, mute, ban: a clear ladder of sanctions.
Where to put them
Pin a rules in a chat nanga repeat them in a welcome boskopu. Newcomers should see them immediately, not hunt for them. Requiring members to confirm agreement on entry works well.
How to enforce
Rules without enforcement are useless. Set up automatic reminders nanga sanctions: Mod Assistant Bot can show rules to newcomers nanga issue warnings nanga mutes by triggers, taking load off moderators. Apply rules equally to everyone — otherwise trust in a community erodes.
