# United Admin Rules

### Managers

sohcah and Greymagic27 are Managers.

### Admin Announcements

Make sure you read all Admin Announcements and react with 👍 to them within 24 hours of the announcement being posted.\
\&#xNAN;*Note: This may not apply if you give a reasonable warning in advance that you will not be active for a certain period.*

### Notification Settings

You are required to have your Channel Notification settings for **Admin Announcements** as "All Messages" and for all of the other **Admin** channels as at least "Only @mentions" with "Suppress All Role @mentions" OFF.

However, your choice for all other channels are up to you, as well as your decision for "Suppress @everyone and @here" and "Mobile Push Notifications".

### COVID-19 / Coronavirus

Please, do not scaremonger about COVID-19, share fake news or false information. However, I also ask you to please not downplay how dangerous COVID-19 is. COVID-19 **IS** dangerous, that cannot be denied.

### Removing Arguments, etc. from Public Chat

Before removing arguments from Public Chat, please ask sohcah to get a Carbon **messagelog** in case we need it as proof in the future.

### Carbon Logs

Messages removed by Carbon should be checked by an admin according to the **Carbon** section in the [Bans Policy](https://unitedadmin.sohcah.dev/bans-policy#carbon). If you have checked a message, but not given a warning, please put a ✅ reaction on the message. If you have given them a warning, put an ❌ instead.

### Creating / Removing Channels

If you feel a channel is no longer needed, please contact sohcah.\
If you would like to create a new channel, you should request permission from a Manager, except for the following cases:

* Making a **temporary** channel for a certain discussion topic - If you want it to become a permanent channel, you'll need to get a Manager to approve it
* Adding a channel for a new game

### Using the Wrong Channels

If someone has put a few messages in the wrong channel, just **ignore** it. However, if people are having a full conversation in the wrong channel, you may politely suggest that they move channel.

### News Posts and @everyone Pings

If you need to make an urgent post in #news, you are allowed to do so without an @everyone ping. A manager will then decide to put `@everyone /\` if they feel there is a need for a ping.

If you want to make a non-urgent post in #news, please check with a Manager first. Advertisements regarding something that is not partnered with United are not allowed in #news.

### Jokes

If something is obviously a joke, such as a joke death threat, etc, please leave it alone.\
`dont take my diamonds or ill kill you in your sleep lol` - **Joke**\
`I know your address.... you live at 4 B____ C_____. I could come and kill you...`- **Not Joke**

### Swearing

If you would like a full list of United Swear Words, feel free to contact sohcah. This list may change at any time. Swearing from quotes should be censored with asterisks.

### Reminder about Community

United is a community. Your channel suggestions will be declined if the channel doesn't serve a purpose for the community. Anything that will only serve as a use to you will be declined, as you should just put them in your own server.

### Arguments

Please keep arguments between Admins outside of public chat.

### Rules are subject to common sense.

These rules are **not** comprehensive and use of loopholes to violate the spirit of these rules is subject to enforcement.
