Here's my crack at a forum code of conduct: "No spam, stay on the forum topic, be excellent to each other."
Spam - Define excellent - Define
Now you know why these things end up thousands of words 😛
Additionally, I recommend we have areas of the forum with additional sets of rules, based on the content.
For example: political art, jobs (posting), self-promotion (requests for commissions) in order to keep other areas free from either of those things, but give users the freedom to post what they like elsewhere.
Jobs is interesting just as a concept. Jobs to do, people who need jobs. that sort of thing.
Maybe even a section for (legal) adult/nudity/erotica made with Inkscape, since what counts as offensive varies widely, and there needs to be some specific area to post so sensitive people (or people at work) don't get an eye-full of something they don't like to see.
One of the reasons we keep the gallery on inkscape.org PC is because we have no adult controls. That is, we have no ability to hide pictures from people who are not adults or who have not agreed to see them. Like deviantArt's or Istagrams adult content warning filters.
Last time we talked about it, I believe only I was half in support of adult images on the basis of being open. But no one else was, and that's fine too. Technically we couldn't support it.
