Community Standards

The actual behavioral rules for members, creators, administrators, collaborators, and guests participating in The Fachelli Family community.

Effective September 13, 2026 · Commission and continuity revision · Applies outside the fictional story
THE CONTROLLING RULE

When an in-character order, custom, scene, or storyline conflicts with real-world safety, consent, law, platform policy, host-server rules, or this community policy, the fictional material yields immediately.

01

The Modern Day Commission

The Modern Day Commission is the Family’s current governing body. It appoints community roles, maintains laws and standards, and oversees the timeline across all game chapters.

  • Current Commission appointments are recorded alongside the Modern Era. Its members can maintain a character presence in every chapter, support House leadership and role-play under the same standards as all members.
  • Game leaders and division heads hold a Commission appointment with an agreed remit. Historical titles and self-declared character rank do not replace a current appointment.
  • Commission laws are recorded at /community/laws. They operate within these standards, voluntary participation and host-server rules.
  • Members may play many games and characters, all descending from one founding character. Every departing chapter should leave a conclusion or an agreed resolution and return plan in the family history.
02

21+ community and mature fictional themes

The member community is 21+. It is preferred for older, professional, part-time to full-time gamers who want dependable, character-driven roleplay. Crime-drama stories may discuss fictional drugs, alcohol, weapons, violence, death, threats, corruption, gambling, incarceration, profanity, and other mature themes.

  • Mature subject matter must remain within agreed roleplay, host-server rules, platform policy, and participant boundaries.
  • A content warning never excuses harassment, non-consensual sexual content, exploitation, graphic shock content, or real threats.
  • No sexualized minor characters, grooming, sexual exploitation of minors, or content that endangers a child.
  • The complete public advisory and reporting routes appear in Safety & Mature Content.
03

Website and Discord command center

The Family primarily exists between the website and the official Discord, then delegates into approved servers, games, crews, and scenes.

  • The website is the record: hierarchy, crews, member roles, notices, directives, reports, Sit-Downs, ledgers, applications, and policy.
  • Discord is the live meeting house: ordinary check-ins, scheduled meetings, voice rooms, IC channels, OOC channels, announcements, and coordination.
  • Family meetings take place in Discord unless leadership assigns a different location in the meeting record.
  • In-character and out-of-character sections must remain separate. Do not turn OOC issues into IC punishment or IC conflict into OOC harassment.
  • Important decisions, debts, issues, promotions, absences, and outcomes must be entered back into the website so members stay aware and the chain of command stays clear.
04

Voluntary participation

Membership, scenes, productions, and community activity are voluntary. A member may step away or leave without fictional or real retaliation.

  • No rank may pressure a member into real-world labor, payment, relationships, travel, illegal conduct, or unwanted contact.
  • Consent may be withdrawn. Respect a pause, boundary, safety signal, or decision to leave.
  • Nobody owes personal access, private information, money, or off-platform contact because of a character relationship.
05

Professional standards and real-life balance

The Family is for professional-minded adult gamers. Structure should add value, community, and a better game experience; it should not create stress that takes from real life.

  • Members are responsible for the commitments they make because other people plan their time around meetings, scenes, deliveries, recordings, and crew duties.
  • If a schedule changes, communicate early, request coverage, reschedule, or file a continuity notice. The standard is respect, not perfect attendance.
  • Members may request time away for days, months, or years without sharing private details. Roles may be covered or reassigned so the story continues cleanly.
  • Returning members should receive a current brief and a place back in the community. Fictional rank or duty may need to be earned back when the world has moved on, but the person is not discarded for having a life.
06

Fiction and reality remain separate

In-character authority is theatrical. It does not create employment, financial, legal, romantic, or personal authority over another participant.

  • The current Commission records appointments and changes to community responsibilities; scene outcomes do not silently change an appointment.
  • In-character conflict cannot justify out-of-character harassment, dogpiling, exclusion, doxxing, threats, or retaliation.
  • Real disputes use moderation and documented community procedure—not fictional discipline.
  • Private information learned out of character never becomes character knowledge without permission.
07

Respect, safety, and protected dignity

  • No harassment, stalking, discrimination, hate speech, sexual coercion, threats, intimidation, exploitation, fraud, or encouragement of real criminal conduct.
  • No hazing, loyalty tests, humiliation, or manipulation disguised as immersion.
  • Respect age restrictions, platform safety requirements, personal boundaries, and content warnings.
  • Do not use the Family name, seal, Discord, or content channels to target another person or community.
08

Host-server sovereignty

The Family enters every outside server as a guest.

  • Host rules, lore, faction restrictions, staff decisions, bans, and enforcement take priority inside that community.
  • The Commission never overrules another server’s owners or administrators.
  • Transfers may preserve creative continuity but never evade a ban, punishment, investigation, or administrative decision.
  • A serious debt, dispute, betrayal, business issue, or open consequence from one game must be resolved or formally carried by Sit-Down before the character or crew enters another world.
  • No cross-server metagaming, private-information transfer, exploit use, unauthorized administrative data, or retaliation against host staff.
09

Scene and roleplay standards

  • Create opportunities for other players rather than treating them as props or targets.
  • Accept losses and consequences with maturity. Failure may create the stronger story.
  • Keep fictional intimidation consensual, proportionate, host-permitted, and visibly separate from real threats.
  • Do not make random violence, mechanical domination, wealth, or grinding the primary measure of contribution.
  • Respect the players behind rivals, police, civilians, staff, and competing organizations.
10

Real-world administration

The Modern Day Commission and its appointed moderators handle member safety, conduct, production permissions, account access and enforcement.

  • Moderators may pause scenes or access while reviewing a safety or conduct matter.
  • Reports should include facts, relevant records, requested resolution, and any immediate safety concern.
  • The subject of a report receives a fair opportunity to respond unless safety or law requires otherwise.
  • Actions may include guidance, content removal, access limits, suspension, removal, or referral to platform/server authorities.
11

Owner and Commission decision boundaries

Vito's private office is sealed. The Commission receives only direction he reviews and signs; crews receive only the assignment their role needs.

  • No private office conversation, unfinished recommendation, or draft option is visible to the Commission or members.
  • No promotion, demotion, punishment, ban, access change, canon change, or real administrative action occurs without an authorized human decision.
  • Sensitive complaints go directly to an appropriate real community moderator or administrator, never through roleplay counsel.
  • Members may question, correct, or appeal a decision without fictional retaliation.
  • Private messages and confidential evidence remain outside the Family directive system.
12

Private chat and communication

  • Family chat is moderated community infrastructure, not an in-character safe harbor from real policy.
  • The site performs a limited pre-publication safety screen. Clearly framed fictional drugs, violence, crime, threats, and other mature story themes remain permitted; apparent private data, real threats, exploitation, harassment, self-harm emergencies, and real criminal planning may be held before publication.
  • Automated screening can make mistakes. A held message does not by itself prove misconduct, and any person-affecting enforcement requires human review under community policy.
  • Do not post personal addresses, financial credentials, passwords, government identifiers, confidential evidence, exploits, or real criminal plans.
  • Keep important coordination concise and use the appropriate rank-controlled room. Do not use chat for emergencies or credible threats.
  • Moderators may remove individual messages. Administrators may clear a room; cleared message bodies are removed while a minimal moderation event may be retained.
13

Reporting, evidence, and moderator independence

  • Members may report a chat message without confronting the author. A report creates a private moderation event and does not establish guilt.
  • Moderators must decide real conduct matters under these Standards rather than fictional rank, crew loyalty, personal relationships, or AI advice.
  • Preserve only the minimum evidence reasonably necessary. Do not repost harmful material, collect unrelated personal information, or conduct a private investigation.
  • A person materially involved in a dispute should not be the sole reviewer when another authorized moderator is reasonably available.
  • Serious or repeated action should include the policy basis, scope, duration where applicable, and a reasonable appeal route unless safety or law requires otherwise.
14

Conflicts, appeals, and no retaliation

  • Good-faith reporting, boundary-setting, declining a scene, or using an appeal may not be punished.
  • Administrative decisions should identify the policy basis and, when appropriate, the duration and path to review.
  • A different Commission or creative decision is not automatically misconduct. Appeals focus on process, policy, new facts, or proportionality.
  • Immediate threats, credible real-world danger, or suspected crimes must be reported to the proper platform, server, or public authority—not handled through roleplay.
15

Zero tolerance for real-world harm

The Fachelli Family is a roleplay and storytelling community. We do not support actual violence, threats, intimidation, crime, or harm.

  • Any illegal conduct, credible threat, real-world violence, stalking, doxxing, exploitation, coercion, weapons threat, criminal planning, or attempt to use Family language as cover for real wrongdoing may be preserved and reported to platforms, server staff, law enforcement, or other proper authorities.
  • No rank, joke, storyline, feud, Discord message, or private relationship excuses real threats or illegal activity.
  • Members should disengage, preserve only necessary evidence, notify appropriate moderators, and use emergency services when immediate safety is at risk.
  • The goal is storytelling, gaming, content, and community. Anyone trying to turn that into real-world harm does not belong here.
16

Money, simulations, and benefits

  • No real payment buys Family rank, Made status, Commission authority, chapter control, protection, story immunity, moderation preference, XP, collectibles, territory, or in-game advantage.
  • Fictional ledgers and debts have no cash value and never create real obligations.
  • No member may buy, sell, redeem, wager, cash out, or privately broker fictional records or account access.
  • Poker, betting, lotteries, raffles, loot boxes, paid chance mechanics, cryptocurrency, NFTs, and real-money marketplaces are not offered by the website.
  • Platform-approved purchases remain between the user and that provider and are not Family transactions.
  • Community support funds media and infrastructure; it never purchases authority over people or canon.

Play the character. Protect the person. Respect the host. Create more than you consume.
