code of conduct

be cool. that's basically it.

artwae is supposed to feel like an underground radio station — the kind of place you stumble into late at night and end up staying. for that to work, the chat has to feel welcoming. a few simple rules:

do

• react to the music. say what you're feeling.
• recommend stuff to other listeners.
• share your own work when it fits — but not constantly.
• welcome new people. you were new once.

don't

• slurs. not as a joke, not ironically, not at all.
• harassment or threats toward anyone for any reason.
• doxxing — sharing real names, addresses, phone numbers, or any personal info someone hasn't shared themselves.
• spam — scam links, crypto pumping, bot-style repetition, mass DMs (when DMs exist).
• impersonation of artists, staff, or other users.
• illegal stuff — CSAM, real threats of violence, anything you'd get arrested for.

how moderation works

light touch. cursing is fine. weird is fine. arguing is fine. admins step in for the "don't" list above, mostly by deleting messages and occasionally suspending accounts. we'd rather not be heavy-handed.

if you see something that crosses a line, hang tight — once we have a report button, you'll be able to flag it. for now, you can email davoncollins41@gmail.com.

vibe

this place runs on the people who show up. take care of it and take care of each other. we're trying to build something that doesn't exist anywhere else right now.
