# The Erbosoft Project Code of Conduct
|
||
## (Revised January 2016)
|
||
|
||
1. *I, Erbo, own this project.* Not you. My decisions about any aspect of the project are *final.*
|
||
2. This Code of Conduct contains harsh language. Tough shit. Suck it up, Buttercup.
|
||
3. Anyone who is an *asshole* is **banned** *from this project.* **Permanently.**
|
||
4. This project has certain objectives. Anything outside of those objectives is *irrelevant,*
|
||
unless and until *I* change the objectives. Not you. In particular, if you’re a Social Justice Warrior
|
||
trying to join this project to spread your *bullshit,* you are *automatically declared an asshole.*
|
||
And you’re *gone.*
|
||
5. I reserve the right to change this Code of Conduct as I see fit. If, however, you try to force me
|
||
to change it in ways that are *offensive to me,* or that try to advance “social justice” ideals in any
|
||
way, shape, or form, you’re an *asshole.* And you’re *gone.*
|
||
6. In particular, this project explicitly *rejects* the “Open Code of Conduct” by the TODO Group,
|
||
the “Contributor Code of Merit” by Coraline Ada Ehmke, the “Citizen Code of Conduct” by
|
||
Stumptown Syndicate, and any similar “codes of conduct” that may be promulgated. Anyone complaining
|
||
about this is an *asshole,* because *who the fuck are you* to tell *me* how *I* should run *my*
|
||
goddamn project? And you’re *gone.*
|
||
7. The *one and only* criterion that will be used to determine whether a contribution to this project
|
||
will be accepted is *the quality of the contribution and how well it solves the problem it was
|
||
contributed to solve.* **Period.** (“Contribution” may include code, documentation, testing, or fundraising.)
|
||
8. The *one and only* criterion that will be used to judge your worth in relation to this project is
|
||
*the quality of your contributions (as defined above) to this project.* **Period.**
|
||
9. I do not give *one milli-micro-nano-fraction of a* **fuck** what race you are, what gender you are
|
||
or identify as, who you want to sleep with, how old you are, what your height or weight is, what if
|
||
anything may be different about your body or brain, what language you speak, what country you’re from,
|
||
what God you pray to, where you work, how much money you have, et fucking cetera. Is your contribution
|
||
any *good?* That’s all that matters.
|
||
10. If your contribution is not accepted, and you start *whining* about how it’s “actually” because you’re
|
||
of some-or-other gender/race/religion/nationality/whatthefuckever, you are attempting to have the deck
|
||
stacked in your favor because you’re “special.” That makes you an *asshole.* And you’re *gone.*
|
||
11. Only those people who have contributed a sufficient quantity of good work to the project,
|
||
*as determined in my sole discretion,* will be allowed to assume any board position, administrative
|
||
position, or management-related role. And, any position I give, I can also *take away,* for any reason.
|
||
Anyone who complains about this is an *asshole.* And they’re *gone.*
|
||
12. You will do your own work. If you try to pass off the work of others as your own, you’re a
|
||
fucking *plagiarist,* and also an *asshole.* And you’re *gone.*
|
||
13. If there’s a discussion that cannot be resolved within the scope of the project,
|
||
*take that shit somewhere else.* I don’t want your bullshit here. If you continue to spread
|
||
your bullshit here, you’re an *asshole.* And you’re *gone.*
|
||
14. As noted above, my decisions about any aspect of the project are *final.* Anyone *pissing me off*
|
||
by getting all up in my face about said decisions is an *asshole.* And they’re *gone.*
|
||
15. Any advisory boards, committees, etc., having to do with this project will answer to *me.*
|
||
I reserve the right to disband any such whenever the hell I feel like it. As always, anyone
|
||
complaining about this is an *asshole.* And they’re *gone.*
|
||
16. Anyone who does not approve of the objectives, direction, or attitude of this project is
|
||
free to *get the fuck out* at any time. Bye Felicia!
