How the Astral Campgrounds staff handles content moderation on Mastodon

The Astral Campgrounds strives to create a space where people can feel accepted, express themselves accurately, and find community online. Of course, we also have to make sure that our community is safe for everyone which comes with its own challenges.

Our general moderation philosophy is to start by assuming good faith mistakes while firmly holding members to the standard set out by our Code of Conduct and the Mastodon Content Policy.

== Moderator Levels ==
There are two levels of moderators for the Astral Campgrounds:

* Firewatch: These folks are community volunteer moderators who help act as guides and community mediators. They also help with smaller, obvious issues that need immediate action.
* Camp Councilor: Staff members of the Astral Campgrounds who work with the Firewatch to keep things running smoothly and give the final say on more complex cases

Put simply, Firewatch are mods, Councilors are admins.

== Reports ==
When a post is reported, if it clearly violates one of our content policies, we will remove the post and, if the author was a member of our server, provide a formal warning to the member. Continued warnings will result in suspension or a ban.

In cases of hate speech, bigotry, CSAM, or direct harassment, users will be immediately and permanently banned.

If the reported post does not clearly violate a policy, we'll do one of two things:

# If the post teeters on the line or is something our policy ''should'' cover, we'll discuss and adapt as we can
# Otherwise, we'll dismiss the report

== That's a Lotta Words ==
You're right. In short: we do what we can to make sure our community is not hosting fascists and creeps as best we can.
