Code of Conduct
All participants are expected to abide by the following code of conduct at all of our events. In some cases, participants who habitually break these rules may be suspended or removed from the group.
Conduct Rules
Participants are expected to abide by these rules at all times:
-
Be inclusive: The Guild House strives to deliver inclusive service regardless of heritage, education, ethnicity, religion, gender, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, physical or mental health, physical or cognitive capabilities, or socio-economic status. Any abuse or harassment based on these factors will not be tolerated.
If an attendee is being blatantly abusive or in any way discriminatory, they will be asked to leave immediately and may be banned from the group. If you feel you are being abused or harassed, please talk to our staff. Depending on the situation you can:
-
Ask the GM for assistance in the moment
-
Talk to the staff during or after the event
-
Reach out to Cat or Jason via email: info@theguildhouse.ca
-
Be respectful: Don’t talk over anyone else. Don’t put down another player for their actions in-game. Pay attention to the game. Phones away. Be mindful of other guests.
-
Be considerate: When making choices that will impact the whole party, take a moment to consider how your actions affect the other players' enjoyment of the game. NO PVP.
-
Abide by The Guild House: Content Standards: These standards apply to both GMs and players and exist to create a safe space for all participants.
-
The GM has the final say.
-
Remember, it’s just a game! Have fun and make sure everybody at your table is having fun too!
Consequences
If action beyond a friendly reminder is required, The Guild House will work with parents/participants and the DMs to determine the best course of action. Possible outcomes are probation, suspension or expulsion.
The Guild House investigates all complaints submitted by community members. If you have a complaint about an experience at The Guild House, please let us (Cat or Jason Van Wert) know either in person or at info@theguildhouse.ca.
