The DGPT community is encouraged to actively engage in healthy debate in DGPT social spaces on a variety of topics. However, the DGPT does not condone any hate speech or sanction any language that demeans, disrespects, or inappropriately addresses other people. On all DGPT social media channels, on the DGPT YouTube channel, on the Disc Golf Network, and in person at our events, the following community standards are in place. 

Individuals may be restricted or removed from social spaces, have their comments deleted, or can be otherwise acted upon if they engage in any of the following behavior: 

Harassment & Bullying

• We have zero tolerance for bullying of any kind.
• Don’t make personal attacks directed at other users.
• Don’t criticize other users via name-calling or profanity.

Targeted Attacks Based on Gender Identity

• Purposely misgender any person (player, commentator, organizer, etc) or suggest that their gender identity is not valid. Calling a trans woman a man, or calling a trans man a woman is a violation of this standard.

• Don’t share false or misleading content about individuals or groups that promotes fear, hate or prejudice.
• Don’t deliberately spread false information that causes harm.
• Don’t encourage or incite violence.

Impersonation & Representation

• Don’t intentionally misrepresent yourself by creating a profile pretending to be another user.
• Don’t create a user name that is a targeted attack or reference to one person, group, or issue.

Explicit Content

• Don’t use offensive, vulgar, or harmful language.
