We ask that you don’t just aim to be +"technically unimpeachable", but rather try to be your best self. + +We value many things beyond technical expertise, including collaboration and +supporting others within our community. Providing a positive experience for +other community members can have a much more significant impact than simply +providing the correct answer. + +## Our Responsibilities + +Project leaders are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable +behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in +response to any instances of unacceptable behavior. + +Project leaders have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or +reject messages, comments, commits, code, issues, and other contributions +that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or +permanently any community member for other behaviors that they deem +inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or harmful. + +## Moderation + +Instances of behaviors that violate the Adafruit Community Code of Conduct +may be reported by any member of the community. Community members are +encouraged to report these situations, including situations they witness +involving other community members. + +You may report in the following ways: + +In any situation, you may email . + +On the Adafruit Discord, you may send an open message from any channel +to all Community Moderators by tagging @community moderators. You may +also send an open message from any channel, or a direct message to +any Community Moderator. + +Email and direct message reports will be kept confidential. + +In situations on Discord where the issue is particularly offensive, possibly +illegal, requires immediate action, or violates the Discord terms of service, +you should also report the message directly to [Discord](https://discord.com/safety). + +These are the steps for upholding our community’s standards of conduct. + +1. Any member of the community may report any situation that violates the + Adafruit Community Code of Conduct. All reports will be reviewed and + investigated. +2. If the behavior is a severe violation, the community member who + committed the violation may be banned immediately, without warning. +3. Otherwise, moderators will first respond to such behavior with a warning. +4. Moderators follow a soft "three strikes" policy - the community member may + be given another chance, if they are receptive to the warning and change their + behavior. +5. If the community member is unreceptive or unreasonable when warned by a + moderator, or the warning goes unheeded, they may be banned for a first or + second offense. Repeated offenses will result in the community member being + banned. +6. Disciplinary actions (warnings, bans, etc) for Code of Conduct violations apply + to the platform where the violation occurred. However, depending on the severity + of the violation, the disciplinary action may be applied across Adafruit's other + community platforms. For example, a severe violation on the Adafruit Discord + server may result in a ban on not only the Adafruit Discord server, but also on + the Adafruit GitHub organisation, Adafruit Forums, Adafruit Twitter, etc. + +## Scope + +This Code of Conduct and the enforcement policies listed above apply to all +Adafruit Community venues. This includes but is not limited to any community +spaces (both public and private), the entire Adafruit Discord server, and +Adafruit GitHub repositories. Examples of Adafruit Community spaces include +but are not limited to meet-ups, audio chats on the Adafruit Discord, or +interaction at a conference. + +This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces +when an individual is representing the project or its community. As a community +member, you are representing our community, and are expected to behave +accordingly. + +## Attribution + +This Code of Conduct is adapted from the [Contributor Covenant](https://www.contributor-covenant.org/), +version 1.4, available on [contributor-covenant.org](https://www.contributor-covenant.org/version/1/4/code-of-conduct.html), +and the [Rust Code of Conduct](https://www.rust-lang.org/en-US/conduct.html). + +For other projects adopting the Adafruit Community Code of +Conduct, please contact the maintainers of those projects for enforcement. +If you wish to use this code of conduct for your own project, consider +explicitly mentioning your moderation policy or making a copy with your +own moderation policy so as to avoid confusion. \ No newline at end of file
