We strictly follow a "De-escalate & Educate" model to maintain a respectful and inclusive environment for everyone.
If a conversation becomes heated but hasn't broken hard rules, Admins or Moderators will intervene to pause the specific topic or enable "Slow Mode" (where available) to allow for reflection.We do not ban for difference of opinion; we intervene when respect is lost.
Public call-outs breed drama. If a member breaks a minor rule, we prefer private resolution:
An Admin or Moderator will reach out via Direct Message (DM) to the user privately.
"Hey, giving you a heads up that your last comment crossed the line regarding community rules. Please edit or delete it so we can keep things cool."
If private correction fails or behavior continues, we follow a documented path:
A documented warning via Direct Message.
A 24-hour mute or suspension to allow for reflection.
Removal from the specific group or platform.
Zero-Tolerance ViolationsDoxxing, hate speech, harassment, or illegal content result in an immediate ban bypassing the escalation path.
We recognize that Admins and Moderators are human and misunderstandings happen. We offer a fair, transparent path to appeal any permanent ban.
Appeals are reviewed by the Southeast Snouts Moderation team as a group, not an individual. This ensures a balanced perspective on any decision.
If a ban was personal or involved a specific moderator directly, that individual must recuse themselves from the vote to ensure absolute impartiality.
