EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

Taken and adapted from Alma Mater, who adapted it from: Dave Proctor's policy for Pride Without Prejudice, based on 'Snakepit Model Equality and Diversity, and Acceptable Behaviour Policy v 0.5.5' originally by Doug McGregor.

This policy explains the behavior we expect of attendees at our LARP. All participants confirm that they will comply with this agreement when they book. 
​
​
You must not:
  • Discriminate against others based on off-larp (out-of-character) attributes (including: age, physical appearance, sex and/or gender identities including transgender status, race, disability, neurodiversity, nationality, religion, parental status/choices, class or social status, sexuality or relationship choices)
  • Use derogatory or bigoted language based on out-of-character attributes
  • Criticize someone for using accessibility aids eg. wheelchair, eyeglasses
  • Sexually harass other participants
  • Get drunk, high or intoxicated; or use illegal substances on site.
  • Film or photograph others without their consent
  • Interfere with another participant’s off-larp belongings or mobility aids
  • Attempt to shrug off responsibility for your actions, including by claiming they were in-character
  • Cause damage to the site or leave mess for others to clean up

You should:​
  • Take reasonable responsibility for your own wellbeing and that of others
  • Request any accessibility adjustments you may require with as much notice as possible
  • Respect other people when they ask you to stop doing something (we will show you techniques for this before the LARP)
  • Let one of the Team know if someone or something is making you feel uncomfortable
  • Treat people by the gender of their character without commenting on sex characteristics, such as facial hair
  • Treat all attendees, including the Team, with courtesy - remembering at all times that we are all attending in order to co-create an experience, rather than as ‘a customer’
​
 If you break this policy, we may:
  • Discuss the situation with you and/or issue a warning
  • Ask you to take a break
  • Ask you to leave
  • Ban you from attending future LARP we run
  • Share certain information with organizers of other LARPs, at our discretion
  • Take legal action
