Don’t Be a Dick is Not a Code of Conduct: Create a CoC for your Gaming Group
Summary:
Codes of Conduct are increasingly important for gaming groups of all types. Learn what makes a good CoC & work through a template and decision point rationales to craft one for your store or group.
Description:
Gaming groups ask diverse people -- including strangers -- to play together in close proximity. With publishers requiring game night and tournament hosts to be responsible for vetting players and facilitators and the heightened awareness of #metoo, Codes of Conduct for gaming groups are more important than ever.
This workshop is designed and run by a pioneer in Codes of Conduct and safety tools in North American gaming communities, including larps, conventions, and online spaces. Working from a template she designed to help you hone what your CoC should contain, she will walk you through choices and language to draft a CoC for your group. Enroll in her other workshop, Enforcement & Internal Procedures for Codes of Conduct to complete the work. This workshop helps you draft the CoC; the companion workshop helps you determine what to do when the CoC is violated by an attendee.
Enforcement & Internal Procedures for Codes of Conduct & Anti-Harassment at Gaming Events
Summary:
A Code of Conduct for your group is the first step. Learn best practice procedures for responding to CoC violations & harassment when it occurs. Hands-on practice to develop a team & protocols.
Description:
Codes of Conduct define what is acceptable and encouraged and what is prohibited and punished at gaming events. Developing that CoC is the first step (take the complementary workshop: Don’t Be a Dick is Not A Code of Conduct: Creating a CoC for Your Gaming Group). Knowing what to do, with a clear and transparent plan for handling violations is next.
This workshop is designed and run by a pioneer in Codes of Conduct and safety tools in North American gaming communities, including larps, conventions, and online spaces. Working from your (or a sample) CoC, you will identify core team members and develop processes and procedures for reporting, deliberation, sanction, & communication to offender, victim, & community. This workshop helps you create internal procedures and external contacts for CoC violations; the companion workshop helps you create a fair, legal, and comprehensive CoC.
