- All contributions should be made in good faith
Contributing in good faith means being open to considering the arguments made by the other side, either in whole or in part.

Posts simply aiming to antagonize, preach, or pronounce takfir over an individual or group would are obvious examples of bad faith contributions.

Community rules:
- Be nice to each other - we're all fans of the same thing. Let's celebrate that, even if we have differences!
- Comic and TV show spoilers must be tagged as such, ideally by starting the title with
[SPOILERS]. Show spoilers must be tagged while it’s been less than a week since the episode aired. Let’s allow everyone to feel the same surprise we felt when experiencing this amazing world for the first time! - Don't spoil people in a way they can't circumvent - that means no mentions in post titles/comments outside spoiler threads for:
- comics spoilers about something that hasn't happened in the show
- TV show spoilers if it's been less than a week since the episode aired
- Anything else: post as much as you want!
