1. We come at this from a place of mutual respect. We affirm that, while trash talk is fun, the bedrock of all interactions here is friendship and mutual respect. To that end, before anything else, we will establish a healthy rapport with one another.
2. In instances where there is conflict, the participants have to take a step out of scene, and make every effort to resolve the conflict. If no resolution is possible, a third party arbiter that both women can agree on should be brought in. If there is still no resolution possible, both parties should block the other. This is seen as a last ditch effort, as reconciliation is the goal. In case of blocking, the Clique Captains must be made aware, and the leadership of FCF will be read in on the conflict. No other people in the cliques will be involved.
3. Any language or behavior seen as abusive by any member of a scene, conversation, or etc. must be handled with the above measures, noting that we’re not trying to conduct witch hunts. We’re trying to correct offensive behavior.
4. No blanket punishments for all involved, unless there seems to be a culture of abuse present.
5. As this is an escape, we should all make every effort to maintain this as fantasy. When it seems to be getting too serious, the scene should pause, and any offense should be stated. In a friendly rivalry, there will be trash talk, and it can at times get heated. Taking care to make sure that it is a *friendly* rivalry, every effort should be made by both parties to ensure that nothing is taken seriously, that any and all trash talk is merely in scene. if it get too much for one party, then need to remove themselves from the situation and recommend to take a leave of absence.
6. When you’ve read someone’s profile, and you’ve made the decision to reach out and initiate contact, be respectful of boundaries. If she doesn’t respond, or if she otherwise makes it known that she doesn’t want to scene, talk, etc, no further pressure should be applied.
Please note these regulations will be posted for the next week during which time they will be subject to discussion and amendment at my discretion. Any Clique captain, president, etc are encouraged to discuss these with me in order to make sure these guidelines serve everyone well. After this week, we will implement these guidelines and will expect all interactions and conflicts to be resolved in the above stated terms.
