No disruptive behavior, trolling or spam
Example:Not "as a joke" either. |
3. |
No unnecessarily explicit or disturbing language
Example:While language don't have to be extremely formal, excessive explicit and disturbing language is not welcome. |

Weigh your words. Default to using common language. Define uncommon terms as you use them, citing a source

7. |
No politics. When it comes up in relation to a topic; comment briefly, modestly and carefully, then move on

1. |
No illegal, harmful, explicit or distasteful content. I.e. sexual content, violence and abuse, pirated content, disinfo
Example: Includes things not immediately obvious to everyone: PDFs of books that are not in public domain, "funny" videos of people or animals getting hurt or fighting, purely speculative or easily disprovable pseudo-spirituality |
2. |
Don't proselytize, use VRM to sell products/ideology, or “recruit” people

5. |
Post invocatory material (such as magical sigils) behind a spoiler and/or include a warning, even in DM
Example: The most common example of this would be the sigils of the Goetic spirits, which are intended to be used for invoking the spirits themselves. People may differ of opinion about such things, and some may not enjoy being involuntarily exposed to them |
6. |
As extension of A.3.5, warn those you invite to VR spaces or send content that contains invocatory material
Example: You struck up a conversation with sombody cool at VRM, and you want to show them a world or some media that includes invocatory matieral. Make sure they know what to expect, and that they're OK with it before you plunge them into it |
7. |
Don't post, broadcast or use avatars in way that conflicts with VRM's policy
Example: Offensive VR/Discord user names and avatars, broadcasting inapropriate things over microphone etc |

1. |

Discord Community Channels (Click to expand)
The intended "VR Mystery School experience" takes place in Virtual Reality, and only involves Discord to publish information and announcements. The Discord community channels are maintained by and for VRM enthusiasts that also enjoy using Discord for chat and sharing. Although the Community Channels are subject to VRM's policy, their discourse and contents can't be guaranteed to reflect the intentions or goals of the project, its creator, or the staff. |
2. |
Health Disclaimer (Click to expand)
Though subjects relating to well being, health, self care etc. may come up at VR Mystery School, nothing shared through its channels is intended or able to substitute professional care. Our official stance and disruptive mental health issues is that they should be treated, not glorified, and often don't mix well with spirituality and related themes. None of the VRM staff will ever act in the capacity of a care professional. VRM cannot and will not facilitate for disruptive (mental) health issues, and disruptive behavior will be subject to moderation even if it originates from a (mental) health condition, for the safety and comfort of all involved. Participation is at one’s own risk. |
