Welcome!SavageWorlds.social is a Mastodon instance for the Savage Worlds tabletop RPG community. We want our 'local' timeline to have the feel of a coffee shop at a good RPG or comic-book convention: tables full of friendly conversation on a wide variety of topics.
We want everyone to enjoy Savage Worlds with a fun, pleasant, and harassment-free experience, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, or religion. We do not tolerate the harassment of participants in any form.
Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately. If someone asks you to leave them alone, leave them alone.
So, if you love Savage Worlds and want to support the community we're building here, you can buy me a slice of pizza (which, like all good developers, will be turned into code):
bmc.link/architech99Code of Conduct - Be a decent human. This is an inclusive server, and we actively support movements like black lives matter, and LGBTQ+ rights and respect. Intolerance, bigotry, arguments against these ideas, or attacks on individuals based on race, gender, sexual preference or identity, etc. will not be tolerated.
- Be careful what personal information you share. This is a public server, so assume everyone can see you.
- Please keep political discussion to a minimum. As RPG designers, GMs, and players, sometimes it creeps in, and that's okay, but this is not an open forum for political debate. Remember, Rule #1 supersedes all. Learn it, love it, live it.
- If you run into a problem or have a suggestion about the server, don't be afraid to ping or message @admin.
- This is a living document and is subject to addition and revision as the server grows.
