Official Staff Communication
This is upsetting news all around and many people are posting in shock. At a time like this it is important to stay calm and keep the discussion solemn. Think before you post, and avoid inflaming what is already a deeply unfortunate situation. Please observe the following guidelines:
1. Be respectful to your fellow members and avoid hostility or inflammatory accusations.
2. Take care not to make insensitive generalizations and commentary about mental health and people struggling with it. Do not use mental health to excuse the accusations or blame/attack the accusers.
3. When disagreeing with other members do your part to deescalate rather than aggravate any arguments.
4. Be discerning when you choose to post Tweets – do not post Tweets if they violate any of the above or if they risk inflaming the discussion.
